How do I prepare the jackfruit for these tacos?

Drain the canned jackfruit, then boil it in 3 cups of water for 5 minutes. After draining, shred it with a fork and simmer it in Buffalo sauce for 5-7 minutes until it darkens slightly.

What kind of Buffalo sauce should I use?

The recipe calls for 1/2-3/4 cup of Buffalo sauce. You can use your favorite store-bought vegan Buffalo sauce or make your own to adjust the spice level.

Can I make these Buffalo jackfruit tacos gluten-free?

Yes, to make these tacos gluten-free, simply use gluten-free taco shells. Ensure your Buffalo sauce and vegan blue cheese are also certified gluten-free.

What's the best way to shred the jackfruit?

After boiling and draining, use two forks to easily shred the softened jackfruit. It should pull apart readily, mimicking the texture of pulled meat.

How should I serve these Buffalo jackfruit tacos?

Dress your warmed taco shells with the Buffalo jackfruit, then top generously with the sliced red and white cabbage, a dollop of vegan blue cheese, and a sprinkle of fresh chives.
