What is Green almond plum?
Çağla eriği is an unripe green plum, picked while it is still firm and tart; it appears seasonally in Turkey in spring. Its juicy, crisp bite and sharp sourness are quite different from a ripe plum. It is usually washed and eaten raw, often dipped in a little salt as a seasonal snack. You can also slice it into a salad for a bright, tangy crunch.
It is a light fruit, with 41 calories per 100 g and some fibre. Its acidity pairs naturally with salt, though you can enjoy its flavour without adding any. Choose firm, unblemished fruit, and keep the seasoning simple so its fresh, sour taste comes through.

Frequently Asked Questions About Green almond plum
What is a green almond plum?
A green almond plum is a tart, firm plum picked before it ripens. Despite its name, it is not the same as a green almond, which is an immature almond harvested from an almond tree.
How do you eat a green almond plum?
Wash a green almond plum and eat the flesh raw, or slice it into a salad. Its sharp, sour taste also pairs well with a little salt; remove and discard any hard pit.
When are green almond plums in season?
Green almond plums are a spring fruit, harvested while still unripe. Their season is brief, so fresh ones can be difficult to find outside the spring months.
Why are green almond plums so sour?
Green almond plums are sour because they are picked before ripening, when their flesh is still firm and tart. As plums mature, their flavor generally becomes milder and sweeter.
How do you choose a good green almond plum?
Choose green almond plums that feel firm and have smooth, intact skin. Avoid fruit that is bruised, soft, or moldy; slight differences in size or shade are normal for an unripe fruit.
How should you store green almond plums?
Keep green almond plums in the refrigerator in a breathable container, and remove any bruised fruit. Wash them just before eating, since storing them wet can encourage spoilage.
Can you freeze green almond plums?
Yes, you can freeze green almond plums, though thawed fruit will be softer than fresh fruit. Wash and dry them first, remove the pits if practical, and freeze them for later use in cooking or smoothies.
Are green almond plums the same as green almonds?
No. A green almond plum is an immature plum, while a green almond is an immature almond harvested before its shell hardens. Their tart flavors can be similar, but they come from different trees.
Can you cook with green almond plums?
Yes, green almond plums can be cooked into sauces, chutneys, or compotes. Their tartness works well with savory dishes, and cooking softens their firm flesh; remove any hard pits before serving.
Can you eat the skin of a green almond plum?
Yes, the skin of a green almond plum is edible, so there is no need to peel it. Rinse the fruit under running water before eating and discard the hard pit.
