DURIAN

Durian (Durio zibethinus) is the fruit of the durian tree. It originated in Borneo Island and now it is cultivated in many  Southeast Asia countries. It is commonly known in Southeast Asia as the king of fruit that contains many nutritions and many people like it.

Durian tree is a large size of tropical fruit tree. The tree can reach 35-45m height if grown from seeds. Trees that originate from seeds have buttress at the lowest part of the bark. In clusters of 40-50 cm on the strong main mature branches grow flower. Generally, flowers appear only once a year. The trees do not provide any fruit for 5-10 years after being planted. The leaf measures 6-12 cm in length and 2-4cm wide. The durian fruit is usually oval and it is 20-25 cm in length and 18-20 cm in diameter. It has weight from 1-4,5kg. Its skin colour is usually green or yellowish green. The fruit has five sections. In each section contains a few pips. This pips differ in aspects like colour, thickness, texture, aroma, taste or flavour depending on the clone. Durian that has fallen off the tree cannot be kept long.

In 100 gram edible portion durian has 153 calories, 64,1 gram moisture, 2,6 gram protein, 3,4 gram fat, 27,9 gram carbohydrates, 103,9 gram minerals, 140 gram beta carotene, 0,1 mg vitamin B1, 0,13 mg vitamin B2 and 23,3 mg vitamin C.

Many people like this tropical fruit because its flavours are rich and complex, rather than acidic and refreshing. Its offers a very different taste experience from market quality fruits that are probably a couple of days old.
