Cooking With Durian
Durian lends its distinct flavor and creaminess to more dishes then you probably ever imagined. Some recipes listed here are traditional, like the red durian tempoyak, fried durian chips, or Thai massaman curry. Others are distinctly new "fusion" dishes, like durian pizza or durian sushi.
My personal favorites are as a sweet whipped ice cream or in traditional Thai pounded salad, "som-tam."

We thought durian would make a great substitute in gourmet raw dishes that use a lot of nuts, oils, nutritional yeast, and salt to recreate […]
Recipe: Durian Muffins

But like cake, muffins are a little special. They’re not something people typically […]

Raw Vegan Vanilla Durian Ice Cream
This recipe is from the Raw Goddess Heathy, who was my go-to girl when I first went raw. I still snoop around her site from time to time, especially when I’m trying to get some ideas on making something a little more gourmet. I don’t typically use her recipes verbatim, because I tend to disagree […]
