Coquito nuts
Coquito nuts are the fruits from a feather-leaved palm, ''Jubaea chilensis'', native to Chile, having a thick trunk from which is obtained a sugary sap used for making wine and a syrup, and widely cultivated as an ornamental in warm dry regions.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.thefreedictionary.com/coquito )〕 (Spanish, diminutive of coco, coco palm, from Portuguese côco; see coconut.) Coquito nuts look like miniature coconuts and have a very similar flavor to coconuts. They have a brown exterior and a white interior with a hollow center. They measure about in diameter. They are completely edible (raw or cooked), and are crunchy, with an almond-like sweetness.
==History==
Coquito nuts, also referred to as coker nuts, pygmy coconuts or monkey's coconut, are the fruit of a Chilean palm tree. The tree, ''Jubaea chilensis'', takes up to fifty years to achieve maturity, and is native to the coastal valleys of Chile. This palm is grown in Mediterranean-type climates worldwide, including in the state of California.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.specialtyproduce.com/produce/Baby_Coconuts_6541.php )〕
