Native to southeast Asia, Durian (Durio
zibethinus) is a formidable fruit, having a thick,thorn-covered
husk ranging from light green to brown in color. Durian fruits
are round, sometimes oblong, and can weigh up toseven pounds
each! The edible flesh of the fruit is commonly a pale yellow
hue with large brown seeds and can be eaten at all
different stages of ripeness.
The Durian fruit grows on a tall evergreen tree that also bears
large, nectar-producing flowers. These flowers are said
to give off a sour odor, and are usually closed in the daytime. In
spite of the strong aroma, Durian has a sweet, creamy
flavor and is widely enjoyed in many forms, from fresh fruit
to candy and even as ice cream!
