What is Jackfruit?

The Jackfruit, also known as jack tree, is a species of tree in the Mulberry, breadfruit & fig family, which grows in Southern India and the rainforests of Malaysia. In fact, the jackfruit is the largest tree-borne fruit, and can weigh up to 8.5 stone! Jackfruit are multiple fruits, like pineapples with wonderfully irregular with green & yellow bumpy Skin and a strong sweet smell, and search engine trends suggest it wasn’t really in our collective consciousness until late 2015.

Since the Jackfruit has exploded onto the plant-based scene, with many searches about it reaching a feverish peak back in January a few years ago.These days, jackfruit can often be found in street Food stalls, restaurants and on supermarket shelves across the UK.

What does Jackfruit taste like?
