Akebi is a fruit that eats the sweet jelly around the seeds, but in Yamagata people eat the skin. It is the kingdom of edible wild plants, so it is resistant to bitterness, can be eaten deliciously, and is highly edible. I think that made it so.
By the way, it's said that they don't eat seeds, but even if you think about this, it's only natural that they've eaten them. In modern times, people may throw away akebi skins because they are not in need of food, but because the purpose is to cook akebi skins.
The fruit of Akebia has a delicate and sweet flavor and a soft juicy texture, tasting like a mixture of banana, litchi, and passion fruit.
Purple Akebi is a good source of vitamin C, which is an antioxidant that can protect the body against environmental aggressors and contains a combination of zinc and vitamin B6 to help strengthen the immune system. The fruits also provide calcium, potassium, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Purple Akebi has a soft and crunchy consistency with a mild, sweet, and subtly bitter flavor. When consumed, the flesh melts into a semi-sweet liquid with notes of pear, coconut, and melon, while the seeds provide a mildly bitter taste and added texture.
