Показать описание

The jujube (Ziziphus jujube), also known as a red jujube, Chinese jujube, Korean jujube, or Indian jujube, is a species of Ziziphus in the buckthorn family (Rhamnaceae). The origin is still known; however, jujubes are cultivated in many regions like southern Asia, between Lebanon, Iran, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Nepal, the Korean peninsula, and south and central China, and southeastern Europe. The fresh jujube can be candied and eaten as a snack with coffee. People also use jujubes to make jam.
