How do you open and eat durian? Master these few tricks to easily get the flesh

The durian fruit is already known to everyone, right? As a tropical fruit, durian has always been famous far and wide. People who like it love it to the bone, while most people who dislike it do so because of its smell. Durian originated in Malaysia. Although our country has also introduced and planted it, Malaysian durian has always been a symbol of quality. So how do you eat durian? How do you open it? What should durian not be eaten with? What are the dietary restrictions?

1. How do you open a durian?

Because the durian shell is hard and not easy to open, many friends trying it for the first time find it quite troublesome. Next, let me introduce the most complete ways to eat durian.

First, everyone needs to prepare a fruit knife, cut open the bottom of the durian, and then follow the cut opening to see the lines of the flesh. Following the lines, slowly cut open the shell and take out the flesh.

2. How do you eat durian?

1. Eat it directly

Durian flesh is rich in protein and carbohydrates, and also contains calcium, iron, zinc, carotene and so on. Whether men or women, old or young, everyone can eat it. It can strengthen the body's immunity and supplement the vitamins the body needs.

2. Make durian pastry

Ingredients: flour, butter slices, durian flesh, white sugar, salt, eggs, toasted sesame seeds.

Method: Add water to the flour and slowly knead and stir it into dough, then add butter to make it soft, and after shaping, cover it with plastic wrap and let it rest for half an hour. After half an hour, take it out and cut it into evenly sized rectangular thin slices, then add butter slices and durian flesh, slowly close it up and knead it into small crescent shapes. Beginners can consider kneading simple shapes; it will not affect the rest. Finally, brush on egg wash and put it in the pan to fry for five minutes, then take it out, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and it is delicious durian pastry.

Durian pastry is a dish that many restaurants and dessert shops still keep on their menus. Actually, it is not that difficult to make, and you can try it at home too.

3. Durian pancake

Ingredients: durian flesh, eggs, flour, white sugar, butter, whipping cream, milk.

Method: Beat the eggs with an egg beater, then add flour and white sugar and stir. During stirring, add an appropriate amount of milk, and keep stirring until there are no small dough lumps left in the bowl. Then pour in the butter, cover with plastic wrap, and put it in the refrigerator to chill for one hour. After taking it out, use a flat pan to fry the layers. Before frying each layer, brush a little butter in the pan to prevent sticking. After the layers are ready, they need to dry. During this gap, everyone can prepare the durian flesh. Whip the whipping cream and white sugar, then add the durian flesh. Finally, take out the layers and stack them by alternating one layer of pancake and one layer of cream and flesh.

Although I make durian pancakes sound so complicated, the method is actually very simple. Everyone can use their spare time to try their own skills.

4. Eat it with mangosteen

Although durian is delicious, eating too much easily causes internal heat, leading to symptoms such as tonsillitis and mouth ulcers. Mangosteen has always been one of the best fruits for reducing internal heat. The combination of durian + mangosteen can clear heat and reduce internal heat. You can enjoy the deliciousness of durian while also preventing and treating other complications. Why not do it?

5. Boil durian shell in water and drink it

Besides the durian flesh, the durian shell is also a treasure. Wash the durian shell clean and cut it into small pieces, put it in a pot, add a little edible salt, and boil it together. The durian shell has a unique fragrance and can tonify the kidneys and warm the stomach.

6. Durian stewed with chicken

Durian stewed with chicken is a relatively popular way of eating on the market in recent years. Stewing the durian rind together with chicken can remove cold from the body and also reduce internal heat and moisturize the skin.

3. What should durian not be eaten with? What are the dietary restrictions?

1. Durian should not be eaten with crab. The combination of crab + durian can cause abdominal pain and bloating, making the stomach uncomfortable and causing discomfort.

2. Durian should not be eaten with eggplant. Eggplant + durian can cause internal heat in the body. Especially in dry summer, when the body's internal heat is high, eating them together can make the body uncomfortable.

3. Do not drink alcohol while eating durian. Everyone knows that drinking alcohol can ignite the body's temperature. Whether it is beer, baijiu or red wine, eating it together with durian can cause blood vessels to burst. Because durian is also a high-calorie fruit, for your own safety, I hope everyone will not easily try it.

4. Durian has an extremely high sugar content and is not friendly to diabetic patients. Many diabetic patients loved eating durian very much before discovering the disease, and after diagnosis they still cannot give up this hobby. This practice often raises blood sugar to a level that is difficult to control.

That is all I will summarize about durian knowledge for everyone today. As the king of tropical fruits, it has won many people's love for a reason. Friends who do not like this smell can consider giving it a try.
