About Breadfruit, raw

Breadfruit is a large, round green fruit from the same family as jackfruit and figs, and it behaves far more like a vegetable than a fruit. When cooked, its dense flesh takes on a soft, starchy, bread-like texture — hence the name — making it a staple carbohydrate across the Pacific Islands and the Caribbean.

At about 103 calories per 100 grams it is a filling source of complex carbohydrate, with good fiber, vitamin C, potassium and some B vitamins. Picked mature but unripe it is starchy and savory; left to ripen fully it softens and sweetens. Either way it is eaten cooked, never raw.

Versatile in the kitchen, breadfruit is roasted whole over fire, boiled and mashed, fried into chips, or simmered in stews — used in almost every way a potato would be, with a slightly sweeter, nuttier character.
