Cock Young Green Jackfruit (in brine) is tender pieces of unripe jackfruit preserved in a light salt solution to lock in freshness and natural texture. Harvested before maturity, the fruit has a neutral, slightly nutty taste and a fibrous, meat‑like texture that easily absorbs sauces and seasonings, making it a versatile ingredient for savory dishes. This product is shelf-stable until opened and provides a low‑fat, low‑calorie source of dietary fiber along with small amounts of potassium and other micronutrients; vitamin C content is reduced by the canning process. There are no strong inherent allergens in plain jackfruit, but people with known latex allergies should exercise caution and check product labeling for any added ingredients or cross‑contact warnings.

To use, drain the jackfruit from the brine, rinse under cold water to remove excess salt, and pat dry or squeeze out extra moisture. Remove any large core pieces or seeds if present, then shred or chop the flesh with forks or a knife to create a pulled, meat‑like texture. Cook the prepared jackfruit by sautéing, braising, simmering in sauces, or roasting with your choice of spices and condiments until it has absorbed flavors and reached the desired tenderness; it works well as a plant‑based substitute in tacos, curries, sandwiches, stir‑fries and stews. After opening, store any unused jackfruit in an airtight container refrigerated in fresh water or brine and use within a few days, or freeze for longer storage.
