A way for you to love eating durian:)

Hi! My mom and stepdad are both from Mindanao, so they love durian, and my stepdad would always bring them home. It is really an acquired taste. Even if I grew up smelling it, I still didn't like the fruit that much. It's not the smell but it's the taste itself. But when my mom started making durian candies, I would eat a lot of those! She would also make durian spread for the pan-de-sal (bread) and that tastes awesome!

oooooh, thanks!! nice tip Ow

What is a Durian? I have never heard of it. But i do freeze bananas and other kinds of fruit then snack on them while watching t.v.

never liked it and it will stay that way,but crazy i like durian candies

I have never had a try to eat durian ,you know the reason ,right? but maybe your way is good for me to eat it ,and which is easy to do.

[b]hi, youless i love durian. i like it as candy, jam, cake, etc. but i like the fruit more. i honestly cannot relate to that "smells like hell, tastes like heaven" because, aside from tasting great, i think it smells nice too i do not like it frozen though. see ya around, youless. have a great day [/b]

[i]Hi youless, I never liked durian, my friends used to bring in the office before for everyone but only few will eat it..LOL! I love the candies made out of it.. ANyway, I will try this way later if I can have one and check if this will change my perception about the said fruit![/i]

My students usually give mt that fruit during its peak season. But honestly, besides the smell, I really don't feel like eating it. I'd rather have my stomach empty from any solid food than eat it. It's probably because of the cultural conditioning to me.

Durian is our kind of fruit. I love eating durians and to me it is finger licking fruit. The stronger the smell the better it taste. There are many ways of eating this fruit, we have durian cakes, durian candies, durian desserts...there are endless list to make this durian into a delicious food. Some people do not like to eat the durian because of the strong aroma but it is an acquired taste.

I would only eat durian when it is in candy form... i really do not like the smell... yesterday there was an exhibit of Philippine made products in the mall... and i can smell the durian... so i had to leave the place immediately... i do not know how a fruit with that delicious taste could smell that bad...

I don't like eat durian, yes...it is because smelly. But I don't think i will eat durian even it is been frozen :D Btw, do you like eat durian as well?

It's not a problem for me since I eat almost any kind of fruit. I like Durian because it is very yummy.

thanks for the info i'll try it at home. my mom always teases me because i really dont like the smell. but they told me that its really creamy and delicious once you tasted it minus the smell of course. i hope if ill try your idea i will like the fruit.

hoho..what's a pity who cant eat durian..it's such a tasty fruit...king of all fruit...well that method sure reduce the smell n yet preserve the taste for a long time..i always keep durian that wat...can last for months...

i don't even know what it is. care to explain? thanks.

Yes I ever bring durian to freeze and eating , it's taste like ice cream and don't hard to eat.
