The jackfruit belongs to the mulberry family and is cultivated in tropical areas such as Sri Lanka, India, Thailand or Vietnam.

It is the heaviest and largest tree fruit in the world and can weigh up to 40 kg and grow up to 90 cm long.

The fruit owes its name to the Malaysian word “Chakka”. This means “round” and describes its appearance.

The cultivation is done without any genetic engineering. In addition, significantly less water and energy is consumed than in the cultivation and processing of soy or peas.

FRUIT OR MEAT SUBSTITUTE? THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN RIPE FRUIT AND UNRIPE FRUIT

Jackfrucht reif süss
Ripe (sweet)
Jackfrucht jung Fleisch- und Fischersatz
Young (meat and fish substitute)

The ripe jackfruit is light yellow to golden inside and has a sweetish taste. The fruit flesh can be used, for example, for a tropical fruit salad.

The young, unripe Jackfruit is suitable as a substitute for meat and is therefore a very good meat and fish alternative for vegans, vegetarians and flexitarians. The unripe white, tasteless flesh is used, which is similar to chicken breast or lean pork in its consistency. It accepts spicy marinades and spices very well and thus provides an intense taste experience. The flesh retains its fibrous consistency even during cooking and frying and creates a meat-like feeling when eaten.
