RE: Jackfruit! - One of These Wonderful Tasting Fruits Could Serve a Banquet
It's so nice to be able to watch me eat my first jackfruit online!
I brought some over to @noganoo yesterday and we put some in the dehydrator. We will see how that turns out.
@papa-pepper you should have cut it this way
How do your hands feel? sticky?
@anotherjoe I miss that - my grandparents had several of those in the yard in Bicol and we could tell when the jackfruit is ripe - you could smell it 5 meters away. We just wait for it to drop off the tree. Sometimes, we knock on it and pick it when it sounds like a gas-filled stomach :D.
I love eating that and my cousins and I would sit in circles peeling those delicious flesh off the casing and my only male cousin in my dad's side would often joke - his hands smell like that of a stinky armpit after eating jackfruits. It does have a strong smell but nothing compared to a durian.
Yeah, @anotherjoe said that there was a specific way to open it, but sometimes winging it is more my style. I'm going to stop over at the home of @noganoo later to see how they dehydrated!.
Thanks!
I only had a slice, so didn't have so much to consume. And I didn't get many seeds, so I'm not sure I want to bake/boil/roast them. I might try to grow them instead. :)
I missed that "special appearance" part at the bottom earlier.
Thanks, and excellent post!
I got a lot of seeds, and I've only gone through about a third of it so far.
@noganoo already planted about 10 of them, and three were already sprouting.
