A few things to know about jackfruit:
- Jackfruit is similar to tofu when cooked where as it takes on the flavors of other ingredients.
- Try using the pieces whole from the can or cut up into smaller bites.
- Use canned jackfruit that is considered green and packed in a brine. Fresh jackfruit may be too ripe to use as a “meat”.
- Make sure to not buy jackfruit packed in syrup as this is used for desserts.
