Indulge in the exotic flavor of Fresh Durian, hailed as the “King of Fruits” across Southeast Asia. Known for its unique taste and strong aroma, Durian is both loved and revered for its creamy, custard-like flesh and distinctive texture. Our whole chilled Durian is carefully sourced from premium farms, ensuring that you enjoy this tropical delicacy at its freshest and ripest state.

Key Features:

• • Weight: Available in whole fruits, typically ranging from 1-1.2 kg.

• • Origin: Handpicked from sustainable farms in Southeast Asia, primarily Thailand and Malaysia.

• • Taste Profile: A complex blend of sweet, savory, and slightly bitter notes, with a creamy, custard-like texture.

• • Texture: Soft and creamy flesh surrounding large seeds, encased in a thorny, hard outer shell.

Culinary Uses:

• • Fresh Consumption: Scoop out the flesh and enjoy straight from the fruit as a rich and creamy dessert.

• • Smoothies & Shakes: Blend into smoothies for a bold and tropical flavor.

• • Ice Cream & Desserts: Use Durian pulp in ice cream, cakes, and custards for a luscious twist.

• • Savory Dishes: Incorporate into Southeast Asian-style curries or rice dishes for an adventurous flavor combination.

Nutritional Benefits:

• • Energy-Dense: Packed with carbohydrates and healthy fats, Durian is an excellent energy booster.

• • Rich in Vitamins: High in vitamin C, vitamin B-complex, and potassium.

• • High in Fiber: Promotes digestive health and helps regulate metabolism.

• • Antioxidants: Loaded with antioxidants that support overall well-being and fight inflammation.

Preparation Tips:

• • Opening the Durian: Use a thick cloth or gloves to handle the spiky outer shell. Carefully cut along the natural lines of the fruit using a sharp knife to expose the creamy pods inside.

• • Serving: Once opened, the flesh can be removed and eaten immediately or used in your favorite recipes.

• • Storage: Durian should be stored chilled to maintain its freshness and prevent the aroma from spreading.

Storage Instructions:

• • Refrigeration: Store in the refrigerator to keep the flesh chilled. Best consumed within 1-2 days after opening for optimal freshness.

• • Freezing: Durian flesh can be frozen in airtight containers or bags for up to three months. Freezing also helps to mellow the aroma while preserving the flavor.
