Shape of Durian Fruit
When you want to buy delicious durian, you should choose fruits with a “bread waist”. That means durian fruits that have a round and equal shape, not twisted will taste better.
Opening these fruits will reveal clear segments. You should not choose durian fruits that look too rigid, round like an oval ball without any segments. Especially, choose ripe and slightly cracked durian fruits, with a distinctive aroma.
Observing Durian Spikes
When you choose durian, you should choose ripe fruits that have big and stiff spikes, with slightly rounded tops. Usually, fruits with sharp and small spikes are still unripe.

Also, when you squeeze two spikes close to each other and they don’t stick together, it means the fruit is ripe. On the contrary, if you squeeze these spikes and they feel soft, the fruit is either unripe or overripe, and it will not taste sweet and may have decay.
Knocking on Durian Fruit
When buying durians, you should use your hand to knock on the fruit. You can also use tools provided by the seller to test. If you hear a dull thud or thump sound, congratulations, you have successfully chosen a durian with thick and delicious flesh, small seeds.
On the other hand, if you knock the fruit and you hear a hollow sound, it means the fruit has many seeds and is not tasty, so you should not choose it.
