Merry Christmas Durian Nog! | Recipe (raw, vegan, naughty and nice)

December 24, 2015 Leave a Comment

One of the world’s great mysteries is that durian grows in the tropics where it’s always too hot, and yet it is the best winter warm-up food.

Raw Vegan Durian Mooncakes

October 27, 2015 2 Comments

Over the weekend I posted some traditionally untraditional Halloween snowskin mooncakes made with rice flour and stuffed with delicious durian. But I have issues with rice. It’s not just that I’m morally opposed to rice for because global warming (stop blaming cows: it’s rice) or that white rice is basically devoid of nutrients. I personally […]

It turns out durian snowskin mooncakes are not at all hard to make, and since I’m home in Oregon visiting the family, I’m making sure the Trick-or-Treaters visiting my parent’s house this Halloween will be in for a slightly scary surprise: Durian in the guise of cute pumpkin treats (insert witch cackle).

How disappointing is it to buy an unripe durian? Very. I can’t count the number of times I’ve hopefully clawed open a durian only to find a pale pod with the texture and appeal of daikon radish. But unlike the insanely spicy vegetable, unripe durian is edible and can be cooked into a number of […]

February 27, 2014 5 Comments

My facebook feed is full of durian. But lately, my belly is not. So when vegan chef Johnny Freesh’s Durian Coconut Fudge popped up, I started drooling. It looked absolutely divine, but I’m a picky eater with multiple food sensitivities and the nuts didn’t work for me. So I turned to friends for help designing […]
