1. Introduction to Preserved Dracontomelon
Table of Contents
Preserved Dracontomelon, known locally as Ô Mai Sấu, is the quintessential snack of Hanoi, Vietnam. The Dracontomelon fruit (Dracontomelon duperreanum) is a unique tropical drupe harvested from the ancient, leafy streets and suburban orchards of Northern Vietnam.
Vinahugo brings this authentic delicacy to the world, capturing the fruit’s natural crunch and tartness. Through a traditional curing process involving ginger, sugar, salt, and occasionally chili, we transform these green fruits into a sophisticated sweet-and-savory snack. Whether stir-fried with ginger or preserved in a crunchy sugar coating, Ô Mai Sấu is a timeless favorite for citrusy-fruit lovers.
