Notes

This recipe uses canned jackfruit that comes in a brine. I buy mine at Trader Joe's but you can also find it in some Asian grocery stores. Drain and rinse the brine thoroughly in a strainer. Then I use my hands to squeeze out the extra water and crush it into shreds. You could also use a fork to shred it up but I think using hands is easier.
