To some of us, jackfruit might have been just a strange name until recently but once you get to know this exotic fruit, a huge world of possibilities will open up. This Asian delight is so special. It’s one of the largest fruits which grows on trees and it has some notable (and delicious!) relatives, such as figs and mulberries.
Now moving on to the most important information - what does jackfruit taste like? Let’s start by stating that the raw fruit is a very different thing to the ones we find in tins (which is what we need for this Jackfruit “Chicken” Noodle Soup). The ripe fruit is sweet and tropical tasting (like a mix between pineapple and mango) and the green unripe jackfruit we buy in a can is neutral tasting, which makes it ideal for plant-based savory preparations like this one.
If you've been intrigued to give jackfruit a try, this jackfruit soup recipe is a perfect way. Go ahead and give this easy vegetarian chicken noodle soup a try the next time you have a rainy or chilly day! We hope you enjoy this cozy and comforting Jackfruit “Chicken” Noodle Soup!

They're an awesome and convenient option that you can find in your local grocery store that will bring out an amazing flavor to this soup.
