Lychees on the plate

The fruit is picked almost ripe and can be eaten immediately. The fresh lychees can best be kept cool, in the fruit and vegetable drawer of the refrigerator. They keep for about one week. The apparently hard shell is easy to remove with your fingers as soon as it is broken. Lychees can be bought as fresh fruit at the better stocked supermarket or specialty store. In addition, lychees are also available in tins. Not every store has canned lychees for sale. Go to the greengrocer's or the Chinese delicatessen for this.
