Mangosteen (mahngkoot) is often called the Queen of Fruits, due to its â??coolingâ?? properties, in contrast to the King of Fruits, Durian, with itâ??s â??heatinessâ??. The fruiting seasons of the two coincide and they make a very nice combination. The husk or exocarp of the Mangosteen is a leathery purple shell which, when opened, reveals the soft, white fruit which is quite delicate and consists of 4-8 segments, the larger of which contain seeds.
