First of all, we have to observe the appearance of durian. Ripe durians are usually yellow or golden yellow, sometimes with some brown spots, which is normal. If the durian is still green, it means that it is not fully ripe.
Smell it
Next, smell the smell of durian. Ripe durian will give off a rich fragrance, and some people may find the smell smelly, but in fact, this is the charm of durian!If the durian has no fragrance or has a weak taste, it means that it is not fully ripe.
Shake to hear
Gently shake the durian, if there is a slight shaking sound inside, it means that the flesh is ripe and separated from the shell, so the durian tastes better. Conversely, if there is no sound or it is loud, it means that it is not fully ripe or too ripe.
Press the spurs
Use your fingers to gently press the thorns on the surface of the durian. If the thorns can be easily pressed, it means that the durian is fully ripe. If the thorns are hard and don't move, it means that it is not fully ripe.
Incision examination
Finally, if you are not sure how raw the durian is, you can ask the seller to make a small cut and check it. The ripe durian flesh is yellow, delicate in texture and smooth in taste. If the flesh is still white or uneven, it is not fully ripe.
