Longan (Euphoria longana)
The longan is known as the "little brother" of the lychee. Sometimes called
Dragon's Eye, the longan, rambutan, and lychee all belong to the Sapindaceae
family. Longan is round or oval and a little larger than an olive. Its thin,
rough, caramel-colored shell is easily peeled. Longan pulp is white translucent
and surrounds a large, round, deep brown seed. While the longan's flesh is
sweeter than a lychee's, it is not as juicy.
