About Cempedak

Cempedak is a tropical fruit with an elongated, irregularly textured rind that turns yellowish as it ripens. Inside, edible yellow to orange flesh surrounds seeds in separate segments. The fruit is sold whole or prepared as segments; ripeness affects the flesh’s softness and aroma.

Ripe flesh is soft and sweet, with a distinctive fragrant, tropical flavour. It is eaten fresh and is also cooked in some regional preparations; the seeds may be cooked and eaten separately. Fresh flesh, cooked fruit and seeds are different edible forms and should not be treated as equivalent.
