The jackfruit - also called jack fruit - is one of the most valuable fruits for a conscious, 100% plant-based diet and is considered an uncompromisingly good alternative in the kitchen. In South Asia it has been a source of food and an important cultural and economic asset for centuries. The jackfruit tree not only produces the largest tree fruit in the world, but also offers valuable, stable wood. The tender, fibrous flesh of the jackfruit makes it the ideal ingredient for creative plant-based recipes that are both natural and enjoyable.
Our jackfruit products bring the natural versatility of this fruit directly to you. The unripe, young jackfruit is harvested before the fruit is fully ripe. With its mild, neutral taste and tender, meat-like consistency, it is ideal for hearty dishes such as vegan pulled pork. At Lotao you can find it as canned jackfruit or as natural jackfruit in sterilized form - perfect for plant-based curries or as an ingredient in our veggie mince, which impresses with its high protein content and is easy to prepare.
The ripe jackfruit is characterized by a sweet, fruity note that is reminiscent of pineapple and banana. Our crispy jackfruit chips are made from the popular Nangka Salak variety - a fruity snack from organic farming in Central Java, free from chemical additives and natural.
Our jackfruit comes from organic cooperatives in Southeast Asia that grow the fruit in mixed crops and without pesticides. This environmentally friendly cultivation protects the nutrient quality of the soil and promotes biodiversity in the growing areas. Every jackfruit you find at Lotao reflects our values: 100% natural, purely plant-based and with a quality that is uncompromisingly good.
