Petola may refer to Petola Segi ( Luffa acutangula ) , Petola Bantal ( Luffa cylindrical ) or Petola Ular ( Trichosanthes cucumerina ).
As
the botanical names suggested, Petola Segi & Bantal are not of the same
Genus with Petola Ular although they are of the same Family. After skinned and cooked, they may looks
similar, but the taste and texture are definitely different.
Petola
Segi & Bantal tends to be fibrous as they grew older. In the end, the dried fibrous Petola is used
as kitchen or bath scrub.
Petola Ular
Trichosanthes cucumeria
