- As it leaves us
- Mature and turning from green to yellow-green: cook it now as a vegetable, or let it ripen for dessert. Ripe jackfruit smells strongly sweet, the spines flatten and the skin gives slightly; the bulbs inside turn golden. Oil your knife and hands before cutting, the latex is sticky.
- At home
- Whole, on the counter until it smells ripe. Cut bulbs keep in a covered box in the fridge for a few days, or freeze them.

South Florida jackfruit ripens mainly in summer and fall, with odd fruit at other times.
