this is my own harvest from my grandmother's house She has a petai tree that bears fruit every year and lots of it The map is very large and legit and usually my grandmother distributes it to each of her children I really like this petai because it tastes sweet and not too bitter and my mother immediately processes it into a delicious petai sauce Do you have a petai tree in your area too? or no one knows petai yet?

I believe those are called Stink Beans by Americans but the tree doesn't grow here, as far as I know.

I think we call them "bitter beans" here in Europe.

@DaddyEvil When I lived in the South of France, we had an Indonesian store where I went to buy a few things time by time. When I asked about some of their beans and vegetables, the funny guy used to tell me" do not buy, you European do not like that bitter stuff".

@cacay1 Those are sort of beans that grow on a tree.

Petai cannot last long at harvest, so they must be immediately distributed to the market so they can be cooked immediately.
