This probably won't help, but

I can think of some ways to cook with it - but there's not much flavor on
its own, and it would be overpowered by other fruits.  Some people enjoy it
plain, others are put off by the tapioca/gelatin texture.  You can just wait
until they open, and eat the seed coating - the seeds have no flavor, but
are edible.  A bit like gelatinous pomegranate.
