    In this episode of In The Kitchen With Matt, I will show you how to eat Durian and describer what durian tastes like to me. Durian is known as the king of fruits and the world's smelliest fruit. Did you know that in some places in Southeast Asia, durian fruit is banned on public transportation and places like hotels because it smells so bad? Did you also know that durian is one of the world's most nutritional fruits per serving? In this video, I also tell you where durian comes from and where it grows. Let's get started!

    It is interesting to see how you crack Durian. When I was young, I opened it with an axe and a hammer because I did not know how to do it. So funny. Now, I do it without a glove. 1. I rolled Durian on the floor many times to reduce the sharpness of the spikes. 2. Then I cut 1 inch from the bottom of it out. 3. cut the spiky shell of it, as you do in the video. ....The second step eases to separate parts of Durian. Notice that the quality of the Durian is over-ripe so the meat becomes semi-liquid; Mon Tong Durian in Thailand is around 4-5 kilograms in weight for the whole Durian. nice video

    Quick tip: The reason why the durian fast bad it's because it's too ripe or less ripe to eat, if it's too ripe then it's bitter, if it's unripe then it isn't sweet, try to eat it when it's between "too ripe" and "unripe"

    Hi Matt:Thank you for this wonderful video. A couple of weeks ago I passed a durian vendor in Chinatown (in NYC). He was opening durians, and t he stench was pretty powerful. What I'm wondering is this: Since smell is such an important component of taste, how does the odor affect the appreciation of the fruit's taste? I'd really like to try it, but am a bit...well...reluctant. I mean, if I don't like it, how would I dispose of it?

    • @inthekitchenwithmatt
      @inthekitchenwithmatt  Рік тому +1

      Yeah the smell can be so overpowering. The best way is to try the ones that were frozen first at the International super market. They tend to not stink as much. Or if you can find some there that have already been opened and sectioned off into smaller pieces and wrapped up, sometimes they do that for smaller portions. At least I know they do that with Jackfruit. If you don't like it, I would take it to a dumpster or at the very least a garbage can outside of your house haha :) Interesting fruit though! And if you can get past the texture and smell the taste is pretty good. I can see why people love them and I can see why people hate them haha

That is how they are sold here in the Arizona and MANY other cities. It is NOT sold fresh. Have you been to every city? I have been to many International markets. They couldn't get away with the smell, and it isn't economical to keep them fresh, that is why the are frozen each night. You yourself in your comment said they are sold in packets in the frozen food department. Those aren't the whole fruits like I showed in this video. Frozen does not equal fresh.
