“Wood apple! My own search for wood apples, or bael, this summer, was driven by nostalgia; I am not a fan of the fruit. Bael is also known by different names: monkey fruit, golden apple, and Japanese bitter orange. A ripe fruit will fall with a thud to the ground. Fully ripe wood apples have a light brown to a toffee brown tone flesh.
