ginkgo
🗓 Season: October · November
🔍 When is it ripe?
Female trees only: fleshy, apricot-like fruit falls when ripe, emitting a very unpleasant rancid-butter smell. Wear gloves — the outer flesh causes dermatitis. The inner nut is edible; roast or boil after removing shells. Limit intake (toxins at high dose).
two female ginkgo trees around this geotag that produce well. use gloves when collecting the fleshy seeds to avoid minor dermatitis and stinking hands. squeeze out the hard inner part of the seed and wash it off before shelling and cooking with high heat, usually frying, or boil them to use on top of congee.
