Jackfruit: The King of Fruits

The jackfruit (Artocarpous heterophyllus), capturing the glory of being the national fruit of Bangladesh comes in all shapes and sizes, from size o to size-M and XL to XXXL, with an exterior armour of prickly skin. Their wide-spectrum range of tastes and flavours, is mind boggling and in terms of nutritional values they are quite rich also. Each and every part of the fruit is edible in a variety of ways such as the whole raw jackfruit excluding the spiny skin can be cooked like meat while the bulb (flesh/meat) of the jackfruit can be enjoyed raw or cooked (with coconut milk or otherwise); or made into ice-cream, chutney, jam, jelly, flakes, chips, paste or can be canned in syrup with sugar or honey and citric acid. Jackfruit seeds can be boiled or fried and eaten those taste very much like chestnuts. After tasting the Bengal jackfruit, you can only thank God for giving a chance to enjoy the exquisite taste and flavours of God's King of Fruits, on Earth!! So, why are you late??? ... ... just get set and GOOOOOOOOOOO ... ... ...
