The Jackfruit Project

Nivaala in collaboration with The Soul Company and Eat with Better have curated a food and culture zine with a spotlight on jackfruit, native to India. While the rest of the world has only viewed jackfruit from the perspective of vegans and vegetarians, the fruit has been put to use in India in more ways than one and has been part of our landscape for more than 5000 years now.

With this zine, Nivaala wants to educate people on how jackfruit is such a versatile plant and can be cooked in myriad forms, according to different regions and cultures. This zine includes recipes, stories, memories, history, and anthropology associated with jackfruit.
