this durian seems not only fresh but is also perfectly ripe. my mom says that it was a common method of opening the fruit because it doesn’t damage the custardy insides. you could press your fingernail in between the spikes like where there was a natural crack on the first compartment and split it open. only really possible if it’s ripe enough and hasn’t been frozen. that soft texture and golden color means that for sure this one was a winner.

[@errasimoun6117]

Hey, Lisa. I have a suggestion so you don’t have to open sa durian with a knife once you open it in half. All you have to do is split it from the inside. Like you only have to push down either side of the durian so the half/middle will just pop open. It’s easy and you won’t get injured from the spikes!😁

Underrated fruit honestly. Really good 👍

It may seem easy to some but i tries this years ago and its pretty difficult nit just because of its hardness and spikey outer layer but because once its slightly open, the fingers that went inside the opening gets really sticky until all the sticky stuff goes all over ur hands 😂

[@nueij]

it’s interesting to see others open durian in their own way 😁 from where i came from, it’s hard to explain but we use knife/cleaver only once to open the durian ‘compartment’ by halves. the rest we only use our hand to get to rest of the fruits by pushing the white layer with our hands, so there’s no need to touch the thorn anymore. no need to put the durian flesh on a plate since each compartment could stand on its own. another unique practice, as eating lots of durian could make ur body hot, we pour water to the compartment and drank from it 😆 hope u can give it a try the next time u buy durian 😊

There's a huge range of flavours depending on the variety of Durian but the default is generally sweet egg custard mixed with onion.

They taste better than they smell. Seriously, it's one of the worst smells ever. I don't recommend eating it in your car.

durian is not for everyone tbh, especially when you're not Asian, even some Asian can't stand the smell of durian like me, durian smell pretty good and also taste like sweet cream, but people in US will say durian smell like dead fish or something rotten, some people can ignore the smell and taste it, some say it taste good, some say it taste just like the smell

I used to live right around the corner from an amazing Vietnamese restaurant. Ate there all the time. Used to get a Durian milkshake, as well as the Jackfruit and guava ones too. It was amazing. Could never get any of my friends to try it though, they couldn't handle the smell.

[@meowmeowm30w]

I'm the designated durian opener in my family. We get the frozen ones so we have to wait atleast a day to defrost. But after that it's easy peelinh. Generally I know the natural opening on each pod is in the middle. Once I find the natural line I crack open a little hole and slice my thumb or finger down the line to open the pod. Once I'm in the center, the core will reveal all the natural divisions, so you'll just slide your finger right thru it and pop each pod out :D
