Only tiny amounts of ripe plain durian flesh are appropriate if offered at all. The husk and large seeds are choking hazards and should be kept out of reach. Rich, sweet flesh may upset sensitive digestion.
Durian is a large tropical fruit with a thick spiky husk and soft, rich flesh, sold whole, as frozen pulp, or in prepared sweets.
Eaten fresh or used in pastries, candies, and frozen desserts. Often paired with sticky rice, sweet coconut milk, or added sugar.
Durian is blended into shakes, ice cream, mooncakes, and sweet pastries. Canned and packaged products may include sweeteners or flavor concentrates. Frozen pulp blocks are thawed for desserts.
