    Big On Spice - plant based, unique fruits and vegetables, food reviews!
    Nakhon Si Thammarat, Thailand - Welcome to Nakhon Si Thammarat, in Southern Thailand. Today we’re going to pick and eat one of my favorite fruits - Cempedak (In Thai it’s known as a jambada จำปาดะ). #fruit #cempedak #plantbased
    We were lucky to be in Southern Thailand during cempedak season. It’s a very seasonal fruit, and it doesn’t travel well - so even just 800 kilometers away in Bangkok it’s very rare to ever find cempedak. But during season in Southern Thailand, it’s everywhere. I’ve eat cempedak countless times, but this was my first time to see it on the tree, growing. And what a sight that is, so much fruit, it’s incredible. We picked a few, and ate both the fruit seeds, and the pulpy outer flesh which is extremely good.
    The next day we stopped at a common roadside stall and ate a huge cempedak. And finally to finish off this guide to cempedak, we were at a local market where we ate some deep fried cempedak. Although it’s not the healthiest option, it’s so good. I love especially that when the cempedak is cooked, you can eat the seeds.
    If you have a chance, don’t miss eating cempedak fruit - and unique and exotic Southeast Asian fruit, especially common in Southern Thailand, Malaysia, and parts of Indonesia.
    Thank you for watching and hope you’re having a fantastic day!

    When durian and jackfruit love each other so much.....a cempedak is born

  • @hamiltonastan
    @hamiltonastan 3 года назад +151

    cempedak is one of the members of the jackfruit family and it is also commonly grown throughout Malaysia as well. the sweet and aromatic cempedak fritters are also one of the popular streetfood snacks in Malaysia. we can actually eat its seed straight from the fritters and its tastes starchy and soft. some people use that fruit to make cakes and i have tried a very delicious creamy cempedak cake before. in Borneo, there is also another fruit native to the jackfruit family called tarap which has a very distinct aroma from both jackfruit and cempedak containing bright white fleshes.

    The young cempedak can be cook. Just peel the outer skin and cut it up. Cook in a spicy coconut milk sauce. Masak lemak we call it in Sarawak. The ripe fruit seed can be boil too then eat it. Just peel away the brown skin.

      Mark, in Indonesia, the unripe cempedak used for chicken curry ( padang culinary), also unripe pineapple for fish curry. We also fried ripe cempedak like tempura. Very ripe cempedak can also to be jam. And the seed also tasty, we boiled sometimes, the taste is like potato and good for your health.

    ❤️ from Malaysia, glad you covered about Chempedak fritter and the seed that you can eat it by boiling or fried it and you even describe the taste and the texture which is similar to taro,potato or chestnut, you even tell viewers that small fruit are more sweet and juicy compared to the bigger ones, hopes it will help any foreigners and travellers that want to buy the fruits in the future, in my backyard there's a few Chempedak tree and two or three of them are from the rare variant species that have red flesh and it more sweet and juicy compared to the normal ones,hope you can find and try it in the future

    I am growing an orange Cempedak plant which I bought as a seedling in November 2023,I am growing it in a greenhouse just north of Sydney (Newcastle) in Australia & it grew really fast (I bought it & it was 1 foot tall & by this winter in June it was 3 feet tall).
    While it's young I am giving it frost & cold protection but they will grow in zone 10b which is what the cold hardiness zone is at my location once they have matured a bit,if it's not the cold which will kill the seedlings it's either too much rain or too much sunlight during summer time, the seedlings need to be kept in a semi shaded area to prevent them from getting scorched during summer time.
    So I look forward to eating that Cempedak as well as the jackfruit that I am also growing, both plants are a bit over 1 metre tall, people grow jackfruit in Sydney so they will grow further north near Newcastle in New South Wales !

    Mark, you can eat durian seeds too. 30 - 40 years ago when i was little, after a family durian feast, we would wash the durian seeds and steam them. They're like baby new potatoes. You can eat them with or without the skin on.
    And we always sprinkled a little salt in an empty durian shell, mix with water and drank out of it. Apparently to drive out the heatiness of the durian.

    Nice! I lived in Nakhon province for about 8 months of 2014. I love the chempedak abundance in the area! I ended up getting my chempedak trees here in Hawaii , although here they are very uncommon and difficult to grow. Thanks for the vid, bro. It’s still practically unknown by the rest of the world, type in Artocarpus integer on RUclips and it doesn’t even come up.

    Hi Mark, in south borneo/kalimantan, we fermented the cempedak skin and cook it. We called the dish "dami or mandai". Very traditional dish. I hope someday you have a chance to try that dish
