10. Jackfruit: The Tropical Giant
Jackfruit, the Tropical Giant, gives tropical fruit salads a distinctive sweetness and meaty texture, thus contrasting with the crisp snake fruit. Notes of banana, pineapple, and mango abound in the complex taste sensation of its bright yellow pods. Choose completely ripe, golden yellow jackfruit that smells strongly of delicious goodness. Although its solid texture holds up nicely when combined with other fruits, the fruit's natural sweetness makes it a great binding agent in the salad. A good addition to any fruit salad, jackfruit is high in dietary fibre and several vital minerals. Its strong texture gives the combination pleasing weight, and its adaptable taste character lets it accentuate sweet and sour fruits. The inherent chemicals of the fruit aid to preserve freshness, and its vivid colour enhances the presentation's attractiveness.
