The first fruit that
I am going to be telling you about is the jack fruit. This is a typical fruit
in tropical climates and is the national fruit of Bangladesh. This fruit would
be typically said to be a part of the fig family. These fruits are common place
in many if not all Asian countries because of this there is a culture
surrounding it. This fruit is held in high regard similar to the way in which
bananas and mangos are appreciated in India. The climate that is needed for
these fruits to grow is a humid tropical climate. This is vital and without
this climate the fruits will not grow. The “jackfruit tree” can grow up to 80
feet tall and has small green leaves. They have a sweet milky taste. These
fruit are either eaten whole uncooked, fried or fold as dried jackfruit chips. The
seeds by themselves can be roasted fried or boiled. To a person like you or I would
find them very similar to chestnuts. These fruits are included in many dishes. A
few examples would be jackfruit sandwiches, vegan jackfruit samosas and tangy
jackfruit salad. I don’t think this fruit looks too appealing myself but it may
look delicious to others.
