Frankenstein Jackfruit Head
Play potato head with this show stopping monster head made with jackfruit. Select a jackfruit that runs on the smaller size so that it will be easier to store and more manageable to butcher later.
Frankenstein Jackfruit Head
1 jackfruit
2 large pitted black olives
1/2 rambutan fruit skin (from the Witches Brew)
1 red bell pepper, cut into a ghoulish mouth shape
2 small hot chili peppers about the size of an ear
2 button mushrooms
Cut off an inch of the stem end of the jackfruit so that it can stand upright.
Using toothpicks, attach the olives for the eyes, rambutan skin for the nose, bell pepper for the mouth, chili peppers for the ears, and mushrooms on the sides of the “neck.”
