How to Slay a Dragon Fruit

I was first served Dragon fruit years ago, as part of the breakfast at a hotel.  Dragon fruit is reportedly a good source of antioxidants, fiber, calcium, and vitamins B1, B2, B2, C. To select a ripe dragon fruit, choose one with bright, even color skin.  A few blotches are okay, but too many and it will be overripe.  It should not be to mushy, but should give a little, like a kiwi or peach.  Although the fruit comes in both magenta and white fleshed varieties, I have only ever come across the white in markets.  The bright magenta version is a supposedly more flavorful, but I love the contrast of the bright white with the magenta shell.  To serve, cut in half, scoop out, cube and serve in the skin shells.
