Durian can generally be stored in the refrigerator for 3-5 days, depending on maturity, storage method, and pulp condition.

When storing durian in refrigeration, attention should be paid to the accelerated oxidation of the flesh when it comes into contact with air. It is recommended to remove the flesh and place it in a sealed box or fresh-keeping bag to reduce water loss and flavor distortion. The unopened whole durian has a slightly longer refrigeration time, but it should be avoided from direct contact with other foods. If the durian flesh is fully ripe and the refrigeration temperature is maintained at around 4 ℃, the flavor and texture can be well maintained. After refrigeration, durian may experience softening of the flesh or reduced aroma, which is a normal phenomenon. If there are cracks in the durian shell or abnormal odors such as fermentation and sourness in the flesh, it indicates that it has spoiled and is not suitable for consumption. Partially immature durians may stop the ripening process after refrigeration, resulting in a stiff taste. It is recommended to consume as soon as possible even if refrigerated in high temperature environments during summer to avoid bacterial growth.

When storing durian, you can first wrap the fruit pulp with kitchen paper to absorb moisture, and then put it in a sealed container for refrigeration. Check for mold or mucus before consumption to avoid cutting too much fruit pulp at once. Durian has a high sugar content. People with diabetes and those who control their weight need to eat it moderately. The frozen durian can be made into milkshakes or desserts to enrich the taste difference.
