Linga Ya Farms Fire-Roasted Breadfruit
Breadfruit
Breadfruit, considered a superfood, contains all nine essential amino acids, making it a complete protein source.
A half cup of breadfruit also provides 25% of your recommended daily allowance of fibre and 5-10% for protein, magnesium, potassium, phosphorous, thiamine (B1), and niacin (B3), in addition to other nutrients.
Breadfruit is rich in complex carbs and fibre, it is low in fat and entirely gluten-free. It is a good source of protein, iron and potassium. It is a traditional favourite of Jamaican households, much loved for the slightly sweet taste and starchy consistency that pairs well as a side dish, an easy substitute for rice, potatoes or yams. The trees on which breadfruit grows can get to be very tall, sometimes growing as high as 25m or more! Getting the ripe fruit off the tree at the right time is half the sweetness that makes up this fruit.
