Use cooking oil
Another simple way to deal with stubborn jackfruit sap on your hands is to use cooking oil.

After preparing the fruit, if there is still sap on your hands, use cooking oil to remove it.
Use lemon
Lemon can quickly solve the problem of jackfruit sap. Simply cut a lemon in half and rub it on your palms. After a short time, the jackfruit sap will peel off your hands.

Put the knife in the freezer
You can also put the knife in the freezer for about 1 – 2 hours until the jackfruit sap on the knife’s surface hardens. Then gently peel off the sap with your hands and rinse the knife clean. This method takes more time compared to using cooking oil.
How to clean sticky jackfruit sap from clothes
Use vinegar
Using vinegar is a very effective method to remove jackfruit sap. Soak the clothes in cold water and add vinegar to the area with jackfruit sap. Let it soak for 10 – 15 minutes. Then, squeeze or brush gently to remove the jackfruit sap.
Use lime juice
Cut a lime in half and use the lime juice on the jackfruit sap. Then, dip the lime peel in salt and rub it on the stain for a few minutes.
After that, soak the clothes in cold water with a few drops of ammonia solution (an alkaline solution used to remove stains from clothes) for about 5 minutes, then use a brush to scrub the jackfruit sap. You can repeat this process until all the jackfruit sap is completely removed.
