Breadfruit chips

Breadfruit, is not a fruit that is popular with humans. This one fruit is unique because of the shape and taste that is not like fruit in general. The flesh of this fruit is fibrous like jackfruit, but cannot be eaten like jackfruit. This fruit is prickly like soursop and durian, but it doesn't taste like soursop and durian at all.

This fruit looks exactly like a jackfruit, the skin full with small tight spines. The skin is green to yellow when ripe. Unlike the jackfruit which is delicious to eat when the fruit is ripe, breadfruit is not like that. Breadfruit, it can be consumed deliciously when the fruit is not yet ripe or you can say when half ripe. If the breadfruit is too ripe, the texture will crumble easily, making it difficult to be processed into food.

That is the reason why breadfruit is always harvested when the fruit is still raw or the flesh is still hard.

One of the foods that can be processed from breadfruit is breadfruit chips. My family has often processed this type of food since my mother was still alive. How to process breadfruit into chips is not difficult. Just like making chips in general, such as cassava chips and banana chips.

Of course the very first thing is to wash the breadfruit. Then, peel the skin, maybe this is the most troublesome process because this breadfruit is a fruit that has a lot of sap. Third, split into pieces and then slice thinly like chips in general.

Fourth, prepare the seasonings for the chips. My family usually uses shallots, garlic, pepper to taste, salt and micin. Everything is pulverized until smooth then pour into a container and give enough water. You can adding other seasonings if necessary.

The way to cook the chips is quite easy. Take enough breadfruit that has been sliced thin earlier, pour it into the hot cooking oil that has been prepared. After that, pour one spoonful of the spices that have been made, don't finish them immediately. Cook the breadfruit slices until they turn yellow like chips. Drain when it feels cooked.

Breadfruit chips taste better when eaten warm. The taste will be much more delicious than the cassava chips and banana chips.
