How to eat jackfruit Videos

How do you cook and eat the seeds?

I love jackfruit!

It is good my mom says it is good

I finally found a market that has both fresh and canned. The fresh didn't look too good so I bought the canned one. It was sooooooo amazing I loved it! My only complaint is there wasn't enough lol I ate it all in one sitting. I shared some with my family and I think we've found a new fruit to have as dessert at our family table! Thanks for introducing us to such a great fruit. I will continue to check out the fresh one and hopefully find a good fresh one to try soon. 

I just love your videos I've learned so much. This fruit is totally new to me I didn't know anything about it. I will take a trip to an Asian market this week and see if I can find it. I go and visit my cousins and aunt and uncle for dinner once a week. This might be a fun fruit to bring for dessert. 

In Brazil, we call them: Jaca. And the trees that they grow on are really dangerous, because they fall on top of peoples heads and... well... Fatality!

@kidboygator My experience said otherwise. I used to own a land with several jackfruit trees in it. What I noticed is, no matter how ripe the fruits are, they still produce whitish sap. All I could do to alleviate the sticky situation when cutting is, dip the knife in cooking oil before cutting. As a side note, these fruits can grow as big as size of average pillow and single tree can bear as many as 15~20. I ended up giving away most of them.

oh so sad

You shouldn't cut open the jackfruit in half...just the outer later of the skin is enough...then remove the skin away it will be easier to pick the flash later on...and also eating the flesh as a whole is much tastier than eating in a smaller pieces that's how we do it here .

you are adorable

you bought a very bad jack fruit lady. that was picked young, not ready to eat. the best jack fruit is very juicy and sweet. the smell will also be sweet. inside should all be golden yellow. the spikes on the skin if blunt or like stretched away from each other, that is a jack fruit that contains lots of sweet pods.

I have experimented with the seeds. The taste is akin to a bland chestnut -- same texture but no sweetness, Still edible anyway. I have baked them and boiled them. In both instances there is a gummy after effect in the mouth. My teeth get gummy. Has anyone tried this with the same result? Does anyone know how to get rid of the gumminess? Also, what is the easiest way to get rid of the hulls covering the seeds? Very tedious to remove. Thank you.

I luv your videos! There amazing with different things to cook and how nice your personalities is!..keep up the good work!

Hey Tarah! Are you still living with Ryan? :)

I've still never tried a jackfruit so I didn't know about the latex thing! Is it naturally in the skin of the fruit?

That veggie dish looks like it was to die for! Also, psh to needing "excuses" to wear cute hippie clothes... I say wear what you feel, whenever :) You look fabulous and the desert suits you!

0:43 that is one strange fruit. It looks like uncooked liver with a reddish black opal inside. And then you go on to eating some armadillo looking fruit. 2:40 But you look beautiful so i forgive your strange eating habits 4:59 . Extremely Shallow Meat Eater Guy, signing off.
