										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Fruits with one <a href="https://shandigi.com/list-of-edible-seeds-with-names-pictures/">seed</a> are very interesting fruits. They have one big seed sitting inside like king of the fruit family. Tiny fruit outside. Big boss seed inside. Funny no.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Mango, cherry, avocado, coconut, peach, and many other fruits come in this group. Some fruits are sweet like candy. Some are little sour and make our face twist for two seconds. Plum does that job nicely.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">These fruits are not only tasty but also healthy for our body because they give<a href="https://medlineplus.gov/vitamins.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> vitamins</a>, fiber, water, and energy to run, jump, and do full-time nonsense work at home. Coconut is very hard outside. It behaves like angry fruit. But inside, sweet water is hiding quietly.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In this article, we will see 18 fruits with one seed, their taste, colors, benefits, and nutrients in simple English. Some fruits look normal. Some fruits look like aliens came from fruit planet. Rambutan is definitely one of them.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="fresh-vs-dry-herbs">Fresh vs Dry Herbs</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Fresh herbs are like fresh green leaves. They look bright, soft, and very nice. When you touch them, they feel smooth. When you add fresh herbs like basil on top of food, it looks very beautiful. Like hotel style. The smell is light and fresh. Not too strong. Very nice feeling comes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We usually add fresh herbs at the end. Just put on top. That’s all. Food looks fresh and clean. If guests come, it looks impressive also.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Now dry herbs are different. They are small, dry pieces. Not soft like fresh ones. But they are very strong in taste. Even if you add little oregano, whole dish taste changes. Full smell comes. Like when you put oregano on pizza… full room smells nice.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Dry herbs you can add while cooking or after also. But careful. Don’t add too much. Then taste can become too strong and not nice.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So simple rule is this. Fresh herbs give light taste and make food look fresh. Dry herbs give strong taste and more flavor.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you want nice look and fresh feeling, use fresh herbs. If you want strong taste, use dry herbs. Try little little and see what you like. Cooking becomes easy and fun.</p>
