Eating Durian Fruit - Durian Fruit Tasting - SriLankan Durian
The durian fruit is a native of Thailand, Malaysian, Vietnam region. The fruit is covered in hard thorns. Imagine a jackfruit but the skin thorn is bigger and harder. It is said when the durian fruit has riped in a tree, even the elephants won't come near because the fruit might fall anytime.
I personally am not very fond of the smell though. But people who like the fruit won't miss it because the fruit is so much healthy.
The taste of the fruit is like sweet butter, with a mix of milk. Even the texture of the fruit is like butter. Good sweet fruit is yellow in colour. The yellow coloured durian is firm and sweet.
In some durian the fruit might be in white colour and may not be firm, those fruits lack the taste and
should be avoided.
The durian fruit should not be overeaten because of the heat it produces in the body. It is said, a glass of milk should be drunk in the evening if we ate durian fruit in the day time.
In Srilanka, this fruit is seasonal and we get the durian fruit durian May to august month.
The fruit is tastier in Srilanka than that found in Thailand.
