The durian is a fruit from Southeast Asia. It occurs in varieties such as ‘Mon-thong’, ‘Cha-ni’, ‘Kra-dum’ and ‘Kob-ta-kam’. It is famous for its strongly repulsive aroma due to the content of organic sulphur compounds. The durian is a source of carbohydrates, especially sucrose. It also contains acids from the omega-6 family, mainly γ-linolenic acid and linoleic acid. It also contains vitamin C, B vitamins and folic acid. This fruit is rich in antioxidants, which translates into its health-promoting properties. It has a low glycaemic index. The durian fruit can be consumed in a fermented form (tempoyak). Its pits are edible after thermal treatment. The growing consumption of exotic fruits and dishes made from these fruits may increase the role of durians in the European diet.
