Types Of Durians

Singapore lies South-East of Asia, at the tip of the Malay Peninsula. It's softer, wetter, and fleshier than Musang King, and has developed quite a cult following according to the blogger at Durianlicious Many orchards in Central Malaysia and even Bornean Malaysia are still filled with old Tekka trees which are slowly being chopped down and converted to one of the two more popular and valuable varieties.
The curry type is more dominant in Singapore, while Asam (sour) is popular in Malaysia. Taste notes: Slightly bitter, smooth and creamy with small seeds. Every time we bring people to our farm, they durian tekka say this is the best durian they've tasted,” he says. Ada kira-kira 200 jenis durian klon di Malaysia, tetapi rata-rata hanya mengenali Musang King (D197), Udang Merah (D175) dan Sultan atau D24.

I visited Jimmy's Durian Orchard last week and was blown away by the best durians I have ever tasted. If you share the same sentiments as I do, then I am pleased to share with you 11 of my most favourite curry puffs ever. But we don't sell the fruits commercially, we give them to customers who come to our farm to enjoy, because we are selling the land, not the fruits,” says Mohamad Jalani, head of business unit 3 at Sime Darby Property.
I realized, during the 12 or so hours we wandered around looking for freshly fallen durians, that I prefer to eat Musang King maybe an hour after it's fallen instead of right away. Recently, Zarir decided to take on a much bigger challenge: investing in a six-acre plot that was previously an oil palm plantation, which he is slowly converting into a Musang King farm.

The D24 has a good balance of sweet and bitter, with smooth and creamy flesh. The Queen among the Kings of Fruits is a bit brownish green in color and can be identified via its long oval shape which normally weighs 3kg or more. In terms of texture, it's slightly fibrous and creamy which makes this durian really filling.
Zarir intends to continue to keep a low profile despite having one of the best durians in the country, as he says he entered the competition simply to see where his durians stood. Yellow chile peppers may have earthy, sweet, fruity, floral, or smoky flavors, and the spice levels will vary dramatically between cultivars ranging from mild, moderate, to scorching.
Using their keen sense of smell, they can differentiate between a durian with the flavor of Fruit Loops and one that tastes like a Snickers bar. For hundreds of years, durian-loving fruit hunters and farmers from different regions of South East Asia (where the durian originated) had diligently selected chance seeding of durian for specific desirable characteristics that they like.

Durians with fungus spots or mold on the shell will taste watery and - you guessed it - moldy. The Tekka, meanwhile, is often referred to as the Musang Queen and has a pleasant bitter quality. JQueen is the name of the breed and according to the owner, the durian tree will bear this fruit once every three years and per harvest will be less than 20 fruits.
Other than the ‘normal' curry puff flavours like curry chicken puff and sardine puff, Richie's Crispy Puffs offers customers with localised treats like their Durian Puffs. Durian connoisseurs love its bittersweet taste and sticky, creamy texture. If my mother approves, well, their curry puffs must be incredible.

There are also plenty of durian-themed delights available at the festival such as Musang King Cendol, Durian Ice Cream, Durian Coffee, and also different types of fruit like mangosteen, rambutan, coconut, and more. Fruit Monkeys King of Kings are specially sourced from Old Trees (typically above 25 years) across Malaysia when in season.
The durian at Bao Sheng's was so amazing we were a bit spoiled, and even Donald's best just wasn't hitting our sweet (or bitter) spot. What I liked about the Rainbow durian, even more than it's glowing sunrise coloration, was that it's texture was far denser and thicker than a normal durian but had a similar level of sweetness and flavor.
