In this episode of In The Kitchen With Matt, I will show you how to eat Durian and describer what durian tastes like to me. Durian is known as the king of fruits and the world's smelliest fruit. Did you know that in some places in Southeast Asia, durian fruit is banned on public transportation and places like hotels because it smells so bad? Did you also know that durian is one of the world's most nutritional fruits per serving? In this video, I also tell you where durian comes from and where it grows. Let's get started!

I just discovered your channel. I really like your descriptive education and explanation. Your version is so eloquently said
Thanks so much, I really appreciate it!
@@inthekitchenwithmatt Your most welcome
It is interesting to see how you crack Durian. When I was young, I opened it with an axe and a hammer because I did not know how to do it. So funny. Now, I do it without a glove. 1. I rolled Durian on the floor many times to reduce the sharpness of the spikes. 2. Then I cut 1 inch from the bottom of it out. 3. cut the spiky shell of it, as you do in the video. ....The second step eases to separate parts of Durian. Notice that the quality of the Durian is over-ripe so the meat becomes semi-liquid; Mon Tong Durian in Thailand is around 4-5 kilograms in weight for the whole Durian. nice video
Thanks!
Thanks for the review! You are doing great!
You are welcome and thank you!!
"It's like taking fat from a steak and blending it with flan" 😂😂😂 love this vivid description!
LOL thank you, so hard to describe, but I think that description is accurate, haha
Homemade durian ice cream is amazing. So creamy and delicious.
Awesome!
Thank you for this video so now I have to go buy one and try it
You are very welcome!
Ahh Matt, good on you, the brave sacrifices you make for us! "Um that is really super duper stinky maybe I should eat it?" said the first person who decided to try eating Durian. I've seen these at the store and heard about the legend. Lol.
lol you are welcome! :) luckily this one wasn't stinky, haha.
And now i miss to eat durian i like when someone love to eat durian but it’s great you such a brave to try it not much people like it and i don’t know why because durian is really delicious and maybe you can try make durian crepe it’s will turn much more delicious and ohh by the way i’m from Malaysia nice to meet you! ❤️
Thanks for watching in Malaysia!
Thanks for the descriptions. I have half of one in my freezer. I've got to work up the courage to try it 😂
You are welcome!! Let me know how it tastes once you do, haha.
How was it?
You tasted it for me. We won't be trying it any time soon, but glad for the review. I love to learn about exotic food all around the world. How about making fried squid?
Yeah, I will do fried squid at some point. I love fried calamari.
I just bought my first Durian. Never eaten it before. Will dig in soon!
Good luck! Let me know if you like it or not.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt Tried it,....well it was tasty but not really my type. Dont know if it was a little bit "old", it was very soft and no "fillets" so to speak. :-)
It will be soft when ripe, so it probably was not old, but it could have been. It is an interesting fruit for sure haha. @@neppson6702
I just bought one bc i was told it tastes like cheesecake. Can't wait to try it
Let me know what you think after trying it!
I bought one too for same reason. Definitely didn't taste like a cheesecake. I threw the whole thing in the trash.
@skyflow_kreative_imaging yeah..didn't enjoy it. I ended up making a shake and still couldn't enjoy it bc of the smell. It's the only fruit I don't enjoy so far.
@@sassounezaza2228 Definitely not for everyone, not my favorite either, and probably won't buy it again, unless someone wants to try it, haha. But I can see how some people love it.
Great video! I learned a lot! 🙌🌟
Thank you, Stephanie! :)
Thanks for your taste test.... never had it, but picked one up today. I'll let it s
deftost for a couple days n eat it.
You are very welcome!! Let me know what you think once you actually are able to try it.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt Sure will... I am thinking tomorrow will be the day 😌 🙌
@@josethevegan8923 Awesome!
@@josethevegan8923Did you try it?
Hi Matt, loved this video. Loved the way you described the taste of the fruit.
Weird, flan, custard, weird, scrambled egg. Too funny. So, the fruit stinks? Now how bad could it be! LOL
I still want to try this fruit.
Thank you!! haha, yes try it out!! And yes it definitely stinks if you buy it fresh. It may not stink as bad if it has been frozen and thawed a few times, like they do at the Asian markets in the States.
Google image search No Durian sign
Glad to see that you made waffles and showed us how to do hard boiled eggs after this segment. The Durian did not take you down!
LOL :)
😂😂
Hi Matt:Thank you for this wonderful video. A couple of weeks ago I passed a durian vendor in Chinatown (in NYC). He was opening durians, and t he stench was pretty powerful. What I'm wondering is this: Since smell is such an important component of taste, how does the odor affect the appreciation of the fruit's taste? I'd really like to try it, but am a bit...well...reluctant. I mean, if I don't like it, how would I dispose of it?
Yeah the smell can be so overpowering. The best way is to try the ones that were frozen first at the International super market. They tend to not stink as much. Or if you can find some there that have already been opened and sectioned off into smaller pieces and wrapped up, sometimes they do that for smaller portions. At least I know they do that with Jackfruit. If you don't like it, I would take it to a dumpster or at the very least a garbage can outside of your house haha :) Interesting fruit though! And if you can get past the texture and smell the taste is pretty good. I can see why people love them and I can see why people hate them haha
@@inthekitchenwithmatt I
I'm going to screw u p my courage and try it!!!
@@rowkayzg haha nice!
Borneo and Sumatra are in Indonesia. I lived there several years and I learned to love the taste but close your nose as you place it in your mouth. So smooth and tasty!!
Yeah, I was being more specific with the locations. Although Borneo is actually split between Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei. Glad you like it! haha
Thanks for sharing, you are the best.
You are very welcome! :)
Matt I’m dying bc you kept smelling it, I grew up smelling it and I can’t even deal...lol
My mom makes it into a custard and we eat it with sticky rice. I love all your universal in food options.
lol for some reason this one didn't smell bad, again, I think it was because it was frozen and thawed at the market and frozen again, maybe. But generally they are super duper stinky.
Matt, thanks for being a food ambassador! I’ve tried some of the items you’ve featured. Not sure about this one though. My mom loves bitter melon and I don’t. Win some, lose some. I’ll pass on the Durian.
Definitely can win some and lose some when it comes to tasting fruit, haha.
hi Matt, with Durian you can make durian pastry paste and Durian sticky candy (in Indonesia it's called Dodol Duren), and that's very delicious, you can try make it sometime
Nice!
Thumbs up just for opening and eating it
haha thanks!
And now i miss to durian i like when someone love to eat durian but it’s great you such a brave to try it not much people like it and i don’t know why because durian is really delicious and maybe you can try make durian crepe it’s will turn much more delicious and ohh by the way i’m from North Korea nice to meet you
Thanks for watching in North Korea! :)
i love me some durian!! Oh how i missed it so much!!
Awesome!
I had never heard of this fruit before now. 😯
It is an interesting fruit to say the least haha
Quick tip: The reason why the durian fast bad it's because it's too ripe or less ripe to eat, if it's too ripe then it's bitter, if it's unripe then it isn't sweet, try to eat it when it's between "too ripe" and "unripe"
Good tip!
courageous man!
lol :)
0:44 I’ve never seen a sign that says No durian in an airplane if you bring a durian everyone would smell it and plug there nose The Whole flight haha
yep haha
Hey matt is it that smelly that it's banned in some countries . I have never try this even i have never seen it . And i didn't even know that a fruit like this exist .... is it a rear and expensive fruit .
Love your videos you are amazing buddy ❤❤❤
It isn't banned in the whole country just specific places like on the subway, etc.
@@inthekitchenwithmattoh ok
I found the taste was confusing and although not pleasant, very curious. The flavor, as strange and confusing as it also was, had me going back for more. I bought already ‘peeled’ smaller frozen portions to save money. I ate it frozen which also made it more enjoyable
That is a very good description, soft, custardy, confusing flavor, haha. :)
That's yummy fruit...i missed I'm from 🇵🇭..
Glad you like it!
So Durian and jack fruit are 2 different fruits??
Yep they are definitely different fruits. Definitely taste different as well.
I wanna ask have you tried Malaysian durian? I thought you might be an expert to teach people on how to eat durian but this just seemed like a tutorial on how to open a frozen durian. We Malaysian likes durian that is Creamy Bittersweet and naturally drop from the tree unlike Thailand which they chop the durain when it's slightly unripe as they themselves dislike ripe durian texture and smell. Hard to find video where people point out the uniqueness of Durian having a bitter taste besides sweet
We don't get fresh durian here in the the States, only the frozen kind that have been thawed out. Some day if I ever travel to South East Asia I will do fresher fruits haha
Have you ever had the fruit that’s black inside and like chocolate custard? Can’t think of the name right now. Caterpillars are my biggest fear ever and durian just looks like a huge caterpillar and there’s no way I could knowingly eat it raw like you just did. You ever watch masterchef Australia? They use it a lot on there. It’s my most favorite tv show. The talent is light years ahead of the other franchises IMO.
Hi there, you are thinking of the black sapote fruit. No I haven't tried one yet! I have tried the mamey sapote and the sapodilla which are in the same family of fruits. I have videos for both of those here on my channel. I am not sure if Masterchef Australia is shown here in the States, or at least I haven't seen it. But I haven't really looked either, haha.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt yes that’s the fruit I’m thinking of. Masterchef Australia is hard to find in the states. I use a VPN to change my location so I can binge watch every episode. If you love everything food and desserts you will like it. I can barely make it through a us masterchef episode but Australia is nothing like the US. I can’t believe how talented most of the home cooks are, plus it’s great tv, tons of teaching moments, laughing, funny innuendos and I even cry with them!! You can find some episodes on you tube as well. Thanks for the reply!!! Ill check out your other videos ASAP!
@@stephanieadams4388 Very cool! I will have to check it out sometime. :) And you are so very welcome :) :)
Mine tastes so bad :( it tastes exactly like the smell which is rotten egg. I could notice a good tasting note in there which is what I'm assuming other people like, but I can't get over the rotten taste unfortunately, I was so ready to enjoy it
Yeah it is a polarizing fruit for sure. Some people love it and others hate it. Glad you tried it at least, now you know!
Durian smells like the odor they put into gas to make it detectable by the nose.
The inside looks like the contents of a cyst. It's not going into my body.
Thanks for taking one for the team, dude !
LOL you are welcome! Fortunately the ones we get here in the States are always frozen each night, they do this so it doesn't stink up the International markets where they are sold, although the fish smell is enough in those places haha.
does it taste like avocado?
Hi Nancy, no I don't think it tastes like Avocado, but it is very soft and creamy like a very ripe avocado, so the textures are kinda similar.
Other people say that durian has a garlicy flavor or an onion flavor
Yeah, I have heard that too, I haven't tasted that, but again there are many varieties of Durian.
Was this one frozen
Yes
@@inthekitchenwithmatt have you tried growing the seed so you can get unlimited supply of durian?
No I haven't, they won't grow where I live. But if you live in a tropical place, and love this fruit it is worth growing the tree. But better to just buy a small tree because you will get fruit much sooner. But fun to grow stuff from seeds as well. @@gamingandgardening7729
@@inthekitchenwithmatt I’m in Texas and actually tried it it tasted like a onion custard and smells like onion. Got 7 seeds out of it and hope they grow.
Awesome, good luck!@@gamingandgardening7729
I don't understand why it's called the smelliest ! The stagnant water in the drains are much worst. This wonder fruit has a nice fragrant n makes any desserts super delish. It's found in almost Asean countries.
Stagnant drains are pretty stinky! haha but they aren't considered fruit ;) This is an indeed a wonderful fruit though.
Did you like it
Interesting fruit for sure, not my favorite fruit to eat, but it isn't bad. I can see why people really love it and I can see why people may not like it.
I didn’t even think that was edible
hahaha it is!
Hey matt where do you live ? 😊😊
I live in the States.
I’m not sure if I want to try durian haha
haha
Matt you have it all wrong. In NYC in Chinatown Durian is sold fresh. Throughout many cities in the United States Durian is sold fresh..Where have you been you been? It is is sold in packets in the frozen food department and these fruits are amazingly delicious. If it wasn't for the Chinese People Republic these wonderful fruits s
No I don't have it all wrong did you even watch the video? I didn't use some magic to show the fruit. That is exactly how it came from the market. 12:20 in the video is proof. That is how they are sold here in the Arizona and MANY other cities. It is NOT sold fresh. Have you been to every city? I have been to many International markets. They couldn't get away with the smell, and it isn't economical to keep them fresh, that is why the are frozen each night. You yourself in your comment said they are sold in packets in the frozen food department. Those aren't the whole fruits like I showed in this video. Frozen does not equal fresh.
I saw a durian at an Asian market today I didn’t buy it but I smelled it and to me it smells horrible like super rotten smell haha
lol yep it can smell really bad!
I’ll stick to bananas and apples.
haha good call
Me from asian watching this:👁👄👁
hahaha
A fruit called Noni taste even worse then durian and super gross fruit!
I imagine there are lots of worse tasting fruits. This fruit isn't named the worse tasting fruit, only the smelliest hahaha.
Idk of I would want to taste durian because some people really like it and others really hate and I think I would not durian because the smell is very strong haha
If you check out Weird fruit explorer he is trying to taste every fruit in the world and he has a video of the best fruits in the world and the worst fruits in the world
@@jamestropicals8262 Cool, yeah I have seen some of his videos in the past.
@@jamestropicals8262 Yep it is a pretty polarizing fruit, that is for sure.
I like ❤️ you bro, you are so sweet 😊
Thanks!
😂🤣
Disgusting!... smells feels and if i ever tried it.... i imagine it would taste like sweet raw chicken 🤢
It is definitely not for everyone, very weird fruit for sure, but they love it in Southeast Asia.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt if I'm ever in a country native to the fruit, I'll try it again. I feelblike what I had wasn't the best quality...... it was ROUGH!😂
@@TPowell617 Yeah unfortunately here in the States there are lots of exotic fruits that we get that just aren't as good as if they were bought and eaten in the native country. BUT with that said, if you were to get this in the native country the smell would be obnoxious lol, but if you enjoy trying new things, definitely try it once to experience its "unusualness" lol
1st
Awesome!
Just saw these at leelee's. They were frozen, and now i know why 😊
Yes!! haha.
