Also called African bread tree, treculia is an evergreen plant that is widespread throughout Africa. It produces large fruits, comparable to those of a watermelon. The pulp is hard and very rich in fibre. For this reason, more than a fruit, treculia is considered a tuber and consumed as a main dish, as an alternative to rice or potatoes. The seeds, on the other hand, are ground to produce oil and flour.

It is the African variant of the tangerine, i.e. the mandarin orange (a cross between the mandarin and the orange). Compared to the traditional orange, the machenza has a more greenish color and a citrus scent, if possible even more marked, while the pulp tends to be firmer and sweeter.
