Post #16: My Journey To Eat “Barshomy” Part Two… How To Peel Opuntia Video


This is one of the young men that have set up one of the many fruit stands in Al-Shafa. To many it is a summer work project or a money profit making job on their summer vacation before they head back to school.

Peeling Barshomy can be a painful task if you don't know what you are doing. The inner fruit is very juicy, soft, sweet and full of hard seeds that you don't chew, you just swallow. It is said to cause constipation so it is advised to drink plenty of water with it.
