HOW TO REMOVE THE PULP FROM CUSTARD APPLE

Custard Apple is an amazing fruit with enormous health benefits. I love it but frustrates me because there is much jaw work as it has lots of seeds and the pulp is around the seeds. It has anti cancerous properties, is high in magnesium, good for arthritis and cardio vascular diseases etc. As a kid, I used to love this fruit but eat it as such as fruit. But had no idea about its benefits. My hubby always ask me to make recipes like rabdi and ice cream with it, as Sitaphal Icecream is his most favourite ice cream. I don’t have any clue that how to remove the pulp from it as it its pulp is around lots of seeds, so I avoided lots of times. But this season, I really want to make ice cream and rabdi for him with Custard Apple so I searched for the easy technique to remove the pulp from it. I know the another way using the mixer grinder but there is a possibility of grinding the seeds. So, today I am sharing the easiest way to de-seed the custard apple.
