These trees were originally native to Peninsular Malaysia. Because of their tasty fruits, however, they are now widespread in the tropics all over the world. Despite the tough skin, the fruit is not easy to dry and prepare. The juicy content was first removed and the stem attachment with the bracts glued back on.
