What The Heck is a Pawpaw?

Lest we forget North America’s largest native fruit, the Pawpaw…

Asiminia triloba, or Pawpaw, is the largest fruit bearing plant native to North America. Due to the lack of commercial cultivation and the quick perishable nature of the fruit, this highly prized forageable finds its way into regional dishes throughout the United States.
