Artocarpus sericicarpus

Artocarpus sericicarpus, locally known as peluntan, is a species from the genus Artocarpus characterized by its fruit surface, which is covered in fine hairs, giving it a furry appearance.

This fruit has a sweet taste with a distinct aroma reminiscent of onions. Due to this rather strong aroma, peluntan is relatively less popular as a table fruit for consumption. Nevertheless, its seeds hold potential as an alternative food source.

After undergoing a sun-drying process, peluntan seeds can be prepared by roasting or frying and consumed as a nut-like snack
