Nothing like having a durian party in Malaysia. The best of the best!

[@zuraidazakaria7419]

Durian is the best fruit in the world because it's an event. A perfect observation Steve. No other fruits but only durian deserves a party/gathering held in its honor. It's not the king.It's the freaking emperor of all fruits 😂

[@brianlingg5518]

I LOVE her content and have been following her KZbin for a couple years now.

[@haizulfariediskandar3750]

You can have durian for every meal of the day. For breakfast you can have Roti Jala with Lempuk (Durian Jam). For Lunch, how about rice with Sambal Tempoyak (Durian Paste). You can also have durian with sticky rice (Pulut Durian) for your teatime. For Dinner, Ikan Patin Masak Tempoyak (Fish in Durian Paste Gravy). For dessert, how about Cendol Durian? Durian Crepe? Durian Flavoured Icecream? Durian Tart? Endless possibilities with durian.

[@JetLagWarriors]

That sounds like a good day :)

[@dianegreig4627]

Sure doesn't look like the Durian we tried at home!! Hoping to try again next fall on our trip. Keep safe, healthy and happy.

[@jonmath4182]

Next fall? That's too far away

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Asian supermarkets in the west could not provide fresh durians due to technology in freezing and the fruit will crack below naturally. The nearest musang king importer i came across is miami fruits while browsing online. When westerners bring them home, it is brown in colour inside. It shld be white inside. Durians are white or golden depends on varieties.

[@anaid5387]

Durian is best eaten fresh, i.e, right after open, and bester after it falls from the tree (that means have to eat it during harvest time). In Malaysia, durian season is July/August. Durian stalls u can find along the country roads and the drive in the countryside nearby the orchards, you can smell right inside your air conditioned car with all windows closed(yes, the smell of the durians fallen from the trees is that strong) . Durian has a bit of alcohol content, that makes some varieties a bit gassy/sour than the other and that sort of explained why it is so sinfully addictive. It is unlike any other fruits, durian is savoury. It is creamy, buttery, custardy with soft flesh on the inside and silky filmy coating on the outside. It’s like nature growing you panna cotta/creme brûlée on trees. Because of the gas it releases, my dad always reminds me to eat the durian quickly after open, otherwise it will turn sour, the longest i keep durian after open is overnight. Some varieties like musang king, if u keep it overnight the flesh will harden and not nice, while black thorn will still be soft and less gassy the morning after. With that said, i cannot imagine one eats frozen durians that have traveled half way around the world.

[@shayap5441]

According to the Orang Asli elders I have met, Durian is the king of fruits because when it is in season deep in the jungle, all the creatures, great and small gathers... From the smallest insects, the reptiles, mammals from the smallest rodents to the greatest like the elephant... and Orang Utan to all the people in the region. I remember the days when we would travel up to a hundred mile trip just to get to the freshest durian we know... Nowadays, travel is so much easier

[@MIsa-iq4sj]

Yeah I heard even the tiger eat durian...

[@AlexSDU]

@@MIsa-iq4sj True. I heard stories back in the 80's of people encountered tigers while collecting durian at night. They sure love durian. I can confirm it because my cats also like eating them. One of them even managed to lick the flesh off the seed clean.

[@MalaysianTropikfusion]

@@MIsa-iq4sj There are videos of wild tigers and bears eating durians. You can find many of them here on KZbin.

[@didibrandy-iz9ph]

If you non Muslim do not drink any alcohol after eating durian..maybe it not true but just for reminding

[@ismailmadil]

One thing to mention about durian is that it is so filling. One sitting of the fruit and you can go without meals for the day.

[@achangyw]

I find that true also.

[@bearybear66]

The different btw malaysia & thai durian.. Malaysia durian, we let it ripe & fall naturally, while thai durian is harvest/cut from the tree branch..

[@pakngah3715]

Not reaĺly true. Many people in Southern Thailand prefer naturally felled durians. The harvested durians allow for longer travel times and shop display times since the durian ripens during transit or in the shop while the felled ones need refrigeration during transit. Unrefrigerated felled durians should be eaten in 3 days, after which the flesh become mushy.

[@bearybear66]

@@pakngah3715 thanks for info.. Naturally ripe durian is always taste the best, stronger..

[@achangyw]

Should let it ripen at least 85% before harvesting. Anything below 85% sacrifices the quality of taste and texture.

[@azulahuang3154]

We in Sarawak and West Kalimantan eat durian flowers and unripe durian as well. Most of us simply love wild or jungle durians. Durian Susu and Durian Tembaga are the best durians from Serian district. Before cooking the durian flowers, we have to get rid of the pollen grains first otherwise the dish turns out to be jelly like.

[@jonmath4182]

Hah. Interesting. You guys do all sorts of things with durians. No wonder in serian you have that giant, imposing durian that passers-by won't miss

Sure. For us, durian is special because we would go to the market where they sell them in a big bunch where you can just pick it out. Friends, family or who you gone with will pick one and they can open each together and see who got the best pick and enjoy them together. I'm pretty good at it over the years.

Its so dense with calories, fibre, antioxidant, vitamin B6,C, potassium, manganese, magnesium, copper, folate, niacin, riboflavin, thiamine, etc. That's cause a pungent smell & ur metabolism increases during digestion of the fruit.

You cannot find any fruit like Durian. It distinct aroma, taste, looks, is no match. I just feel pity to those foreigners, including those in Thailand that do not have the real durian experience. That is why, only Malaysian durian can fetch thousand of dollars for 1 durian. For those that experience durian in Malaysia and do not like it, most likely the quality they got at that time is not the best or they just take a small bite. When you eating durian, you need to have few good bite or best, finish the whole 1 seed. Then only the real taste comes out. Be mindful, the expensive and high quality durian in Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan mostly comes from Malaysia. especially in Raub, Pahang. To be honest, Raub is not the best for me as Malaysian. There is 1 place with the best quality, beat anywhere in Malaysia. It is not commercialized or open for tourist visit. Only locals go there. Very few locals. But I wont share it here. Hahahah!. Enjoy the durian guys !!
