Which is the edible part in a jack fruit?
Answers:
CUT IT & N'JOY SOFT PART OF JACK FRUIT
GS
After cutting the jackfruit and cutting out the middle the part that has the seed in it is the edible part
"The jackfruit is unbelievably ugly and bad tasting. It looks exactly like sheep intestines turned inside out like stuffed tripe. It has a cloyingly sweet taste. Inside it has seeds like hazelnuts that mostly resemble dates, but these seeds are round, not long. The flesh of these seeds, which is what is eaten, is softer than dates. It is sticky, and for that reason some people grease their hands and mouths before eating it. The fruit is said to grow on the branches, the trunk, and the roots of the tree and looks like stuffed tripe hung all over the tree". [2]
The jackfruit is something of an acquired taste, but it is very popular in many parts of the world. A unopened ripe fruit can have a unpleasant smell, like rotting onions. The lightbrown to black seeds with white innards are indeed about the size of dates. People often oil their hands with coconut oil, kerosene/parafin before preparing jackfruit, as the rest of the mass of the fruit is a loose white mass that bleeds a milky sticky sap, often used as glue.
The non-hard slippery slimy bit that surrounds the seeds.
Try it with vanilla icecream its quite nice!
The sheath(Botanical name: Perianth, of the inflorescense) around the seed in the inflorescence is the edible part of the jackfruit. It is yellow shiny part. Make sure you peel of the inner transparent coat between the yellow shiny(fleshy) part and the seed.
Hope this helps. Man this talk is making me think if Jackfruit chips, and steamed Jackfruit seed dish. Yummy. Have fun eating healthy, and enjoy your health.
