麵包樹 breadfruit (Fruta Pão)

Many years ago,
read the novels of 張小嫻,
one of the novels' name was with one kind of tropical plants - breadfruit 麵包樹,
at that time,
I was curious that one can eat bread without baking,
without spending a lot of time to do the cooking,
just get the nuts from the tree,
one can enjoy the taste of bread,
it is very interesting.

In Africa,
this kind of tree is very common,
however,
since I didn't get the chance to travel in certain parts of Africa,
never get the chance to see or taste it.

Yesterday,
with a special occassion,
I got the chance to see the nuts of the breadfruit,
in Macau !
With the aeroplane transportation,
it was so fresh.

After heating the breadfruit inside the oven for a while,
it tastes like bread /potatos,
for me,
it is very special,
but for the people far away from their home country,
it is a taste of their home food!
