Today I’m bringing you episode 4 of an Introduction to Superfruits. Breadfruit is a fruit I’m really wanting to try. In my research, I learned that it is gaining recognition in the United States for its taste and health benifits. Because it can grow in the parts of our country with a warmer climate, it is being cultivated here as well. Therefore, it is not very hard to find. The vast array of recipes I found during my research were all distinctive; however, due to my lack of experience with curry, I opted to highlight it as my top pick. Hope you enjoy.
