About Nitrogen Frozen Durian

In year 2017, PHG Ever Fresh Food purchased our first nitrogen freezing machine, the new nitrogen freezing technology is a huge leap in preserving our durian while exporting to overseas and it worked very well in preserving a durian’s original flavour and appearance unlike the frozen pulp.

With nitrogen freezing technology, the durian can be preserved for at least 18 months with its shell unopened and still preserves its original taste.

How does frozen durian taste?

A frozen whole-fruit durian tastes the same as a fresh one once it defrosted enough. The original flavour had been sealed inside along with its frozen shell. There are also some other ways we can eat them such as partially defrosting so that it still remains the chilling and cool taste in its pulp. Some of them said that it tasted like a durian flavoured ice cream too.

How to defrost a frozen whole durian?

To defrost a frozen whole durian, it is best to leave it in room temperature for around 2-3 hours before opening it. You can also try to microwave it with medium heat for 10-15 minutes before opening it so the shell is defrosted. After opening the shell, you can straight away enjoy the fresh taste of durian, but refreezing the durian is not encouraged because this will cause the durian to loss its taste and freshness.
