Bread-fruits
Fruits (multiple fruits) of a jackfruit are the biggest edible fruits growing on trees: 20-90 centimeters in the length and up to 20 in diameter, they weigh up to 34 kg. Their thick peel is covered with numerous cone-shaped bulges. Young fruits are green, at maturing become green-yellow or brown-yellow and at tip produce hollow sound (unripe fruits - dull sound). Inside each fruit is divided into the big shares which contain sweet yellow pulp from juicy slippery fibers. The peel and seeds of a mature fruit smell strong and unpleasant, reminding a rotten onion, whereas the pulp smells pleasant, like a banana and pineapple.
Since all parts of a plant, including a peel, contain sticky latex, put on rubber gloves before preparing. The overripe fruit becomes brown and quickly gets out of order, but in a refrigerator it may be stored for 1-2 months.
There are two main varieties. One of them has a small fruit; pulp is fibrous, soft, porous, but very sweet. Other variety has more dense pulp, crust, though not so sweet. This variety is more important commercially and on the western taste, is tastier.
