About Akee
Ackee is a tropical fruit native to West Africa and a staple in Caribbean cuisine, particularly in Jamaican dishes like the iconic Ackee and Saltfish. This unique fruit grows in bright red pods that reveal creamy yellow arils, which are the edible portion. Ackee is rich in essential nutrients, including vitamin C, potassium, and healthy fats, making it an excellent source of energy. It is low in sugar and contains no cholesterol, supporting heart health when consumed in moderation. However, it must be eaten only when fully ripe, as unripe ackee contains toxins that can be harmful. Its mild, buttery flavor and soft texture make it a versatile addition to savory dishes. Although highly nutritious, preparation is key to safely enjoying this vibrant fruit.
