Durian. Either you love it or you hate it, well that is for most people. For me, I don't love it nor I hate it. I like it when it is just right. The key is to eat it when it had just ripen and still fresh. If it's overly riped, it tastes watery, mushy and emits a strong odor. There are myriads of durian out there, we've always been curious with how different each variety tastes like. So this was our chance to eat and compare. Question is, how does one open a thorny fruit?
Step 1: Get a strong knife, find a stance that gives you the best balance because you'll be needing some hand muscles. When the fruit is ripe enough, there will be a hair line crack at the bottom of the fruit. With one hand firmly holding the fruit (mind it's thorns), the other hand uses the knife to pry open the hair line crack at the bottom.
Step 2: Once the crack is big enough, with all your might peel the skin open.
Step 3: With more strength, split the fruit into half.
Finally, serve as if and enjoy.
