How to choose delicious fresh durian
- Shape: Fruits that are slightly irregular in shape will be of better quality than round ones.
- Stem: Choose fruits with fresh stems that have a strong aroma. You can gently press with your finger to test; if the stem feels wet, it is still fresh.
- Durian spines: Choose fruits with fresh-looking, green, hard spines that are wide open.
- Durian flesh: Naturally ripened durian is easy to separate, with bright yellow segments that are soft, smooth, and fatty. In contrast, chemically treated durian is harder to separate, and the flesh is often grainy and light yellow.
- Aroma: Naturally ripened durian has a strong fragrant smell that can be detected from a distance. In contrast, chemically treated durian lacks the characteristic strong aroma and sometimes has no smell at all.
