Tips for Cooking with Durian
- Use frozen durian puree to minimize odor and extend shelf life.
- Opt for "kampung" (village-grown) durian for recipes where flavor matters more than premium texture.
- Pair durian with coconut milk, spices (e.g., ginger, turmeric), or acidic ingredients (lemon juice) to balance its intensity.
- For desserts, durian's natural sweetness means you can often reduce the amount of added sugar.
- When baking with durian, remember that it will make your baked goods moister, so adjust other wet ingredients accordingly.
