Drying and preserving breadfruit and turning it into flour retains all the nutrition of the fresh fruit, and has a very long shelf life. And breadfruit is gluten free! Now we can have breadfruit products all year round, not just in bearing season. There will be more recipes to come. Meanwhile, we are working hard to increase the supply of breadfruit flour locally and exported.
