Refrigerated storage of the seeded breadfruit or breadnut.

Author(s) : SANKAT C. K., HARRYNANAN L.

Summary

Breadnut, the seeded type of breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis), harvested at the partially immature, firm, green stage was stored for 25 days at 10 and 16 deg C and 9 days at 28 deg C (ambient conditions). Fruits were treated by packaging in sealed polyethylene bags and waxing. Untreated (unpackaged) fruits served as the control. Storage at 16 deg C in polyethylene packaging appears best for retaining fruit colour, firmness and appearance since the pulp from these fruits was the most suitable for traditional cooking.
