I am just about to open my jackfruit, and seeing someone else as excited as i am at the moment about the smell and the great fruit to come, made my day. Thank you. X
Thx so much for your video. A friend just prepared one for me and my mother. It was delicious and now I appreciate how much of a labor of love preparing it it was.
Thanks you! I am so excited too! When I first started I didn't realize how much work this was going to be... This makes getting 100 subs such a rewarding experience!
Arthur Levine thanks for sharing your experience with everyone! It’s a useful tip! I didn’t use coconut oil because it was winter and my coconut oil turned solid and I was too lazy to heat it up before using. I like how versatile jackfruit is! It can be used in a lot of different recipes. But remember if you are going to use it as a meat replacement then you have to get raw jackfruit so the taste and texture is more like meat.
I bought one today. If you buy it already taken apart in the store it cost 5.49 lb. If you buy the whole fruit it is .69 cents a lb. I live in Phx. AZ.
Thank you for this video. I see whole jackfruit in our local supermarket now (they usually only have 2 or 3 of the fruits at the most) and would like to try it. I have been reluctant because they huge and I feel like if it's not properly ripened it will be a waste of time and money. Is the sap really so sticky you can't clean it off a knife and would have to throw it away? I can't imagine that.
they can ripen off the tree if needed. you'll know if it's ready if you see brown spots that give slightly to pressure. I wouldn't use a "nice" knife since it'll give it wear/tear but using oil you can wash the sap off and it'll be clean!
I’ve been interested in jackfruit for so long and now I found them at my local store! So happy I found this and I’m excited to try this fruit out! Thank you very much 🙏🏾 you’re very pretty and I enjoyed this video !!
Life of Lin I was checking out jack fruit and found your video. You have a captivating personality I feel no one could resist. Be careful with that big ass knife.
Thank you for showing us how to cut open a jackfruit. I never heard of jackfruit just until recently from a vegan I follow on instagram. Anyways, where is the video on how to cook the jackfruit and its seeds? Thanks! -Rachel 🌻
Rachel Nunez jackfruit is very yummy and nutritious fruit to eat. If you want to cook with it make sure you use a raw jackfruit. Raw jackfruit isn’t sweet and the texture is more meat-like. I’ve been traveling a lot so I’ve been more focused on my travel vlogs, so I haven’t posted a jackfruit cooking video yet. I’m sorry for the delay. I will let you know as soon as I do post that video. Thanks for watching! 😊
JACKFRUIT SMELLS GOOD, UNLESS IT IS ROTTEN PRETTY BAD. ANY WAY THANKS FOR SHARING THIS CUTTING TECHNIQUE. BUT IF YOU CUT IT IN 4 PARTS LONGITUDINALL , IT WILL BE VERY EASY TO REMOVE THE WHITE PART AND EXTRACT THE BULBS WITH SEEDS. REGARDS AND BLESSINGS UMA
I freeze it and eat any time I feel like some honey sweet delicious jack fruit ( after letting it thaw out.) I like it a little icy, like eating jackfruit ice cream! A good jackfruit is very sweet. Some are not so. Its nice having a jackfruit in my garden
Life of Lin. it tastes like a delicious kind of meat I used in burritos and tacos. I griddled it with garlic onion and barbecue sauce. Then served it with raw onion, Tomatoes, lemon juice, cilantro and green hot peppers. Awesome! Thanks again :)
I can imagine buying a jack fruit and throwing my knife that cut it... I lose a knife to eat the fruit.. Mmmh must have a budget. Thank you, I have one big jack fruit for a smoothie in the evening.
@@LifeofLin I save old grease from cooking. It worked well to clean the knife and my hands. You can use the oil/grease as soap on the sponge to get off the sticky stuff. And then use soap to get the oil/grease off your knife and hands. :) I don't like using gloves. It sticks and is a hassle.
If you make sure to get it when it's yellow or orange inside make sure it's right it is so sweet people say it's like me just the texture before it actually is right probably does but make sure you let her give brown brown brown on the outside then no latex it's the best Whole Food store
So if they are dark on the outside they are ripe? Is there a fragrance when ripe as well? I want to try one but they are gigantic and I want to make sure it is ripe.
