We eat it fresh straight out of the skin, in Salad, in smoothies; or as an ingredient in sorbet, baked goods (babaco bread), etc.

When grown in subtropical climates I don't recommend taking the green fruit off the plant. It needs to stay on until enough enzymes have been delivered to ripen the fruit and give it a pleasurable taste.
