Durian
Durian is a large fruit with an armour of hard spines. It is sticky, creamy colored and with putrid odor. It is native to Southeast Asia and also called “King of Fruits”. When buying durians, look for fruits with undamaged skin and yellowish rind. If the knife comes out sticky after inserting into it, it is ready to eat. After buying, may try to store in the fridge for 2-3 days and wrap the fruit well to prevent its odor contaminating other foods. Unfortuately, it usually does not work that well. Durian is a relatively high fat and energy densed fruit. With the high sugar content, it’s not recommended for diabetic people.
