    Frozen Durian

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe
    Frozen durian

    To some durian smells great, while others liken the smell to rotting garbage. There is no in-between with this pungent fruit! The taste of durian is also divisive—it’s been described as creamy and custard-like, while others say it’s more like onions and garlic. No matter what you think of the flavor, there’s no denying that durian is an acquired taste.

    The first time I tasted durian fresh was in Thailand. It was so delicious that I actually wanted to eat it every day! I even tried to bring some back to the UK! But unfortunately, I wasn’t allowed which is why I have it frozen here. Frozen durian is just as good as fresh and it lasts a lot longer too.

    If you’ve never tried durian before, I recommend starting with frozen durian. The taste is more mild than fresh durian and the texture is creamier. Plus, it’s easier to find in stores!

    One easy dish to try is durian ice cream made from frozen durian. Simply blend the frozen durian with some milk and sugar to taste. You can also add other flavors like vanilla or chocolate. If you want a more unique flavor, try blending durian with avocado for a creamy and delicious ice cream.

    Recipe tips and variations :

    If you can’t find frozen durian, you can use fresh durian. Just be aware that the taste will be more intense and the texture will be slightly different.

    Not a fan of ice cream? Durian smoothies are another delicious way to enjoy this fruit! Simply blend frozen durian with milk and your favorite fruits or vegetables.

    For a fun take on dessert, try making durian pancakes! Mix equal parts durian puree and wheat flour, then cook in a hot pan like you would regular pancakes. Serve with maple syrup or your favorite toppings.

    Want something savory? Durian can also be used in curry dishes! Simply substitute the fruit for potatoes or another starchy.
