    Have you ever tried jackfruit? If not, you should really give it a try! It’s super versatile and it makes such a great vegan meat alternative. 

    Jackfruit is the largest tree-borne fruit in the world and it’s commonly found in South and South East Asia. While the ripe version is commonly used for sweet recipes, canned young unripe jackfruit is very popular among vegans and vegetarians. 

    Make sure to use young jackfruit in brine or water, not in syrup. It’s available in well-stored grocery stores, Asian supermarkets, or on Amazon. 

    I was a bit skeptical when I first tried jackfruit, but I really fell in love with it. It’s so versatile and super delicious when prepared the right way.

    I’ve got some delicious vegan jackfruit recipes on the blog, but to provide you with even more recipes I’ve teamed up with some fellow food bloggers. So let’s get the yumminess started!
