Durian, King of the Fruits....one of my favourite local fruits. This durian is unlike the normal durians that are always seen. The torns are longer & very sharp. The flesh inside is orangy in color and the seed is dark brown. The shape of this durian is always round. In malay it is called durian tembaga (tembaga is copper in english). In Melanau it is called "Regieng". That's my mom in the picture "slaughtering" the durian.
As you can see why it is called "tembaga" cause the flesh color looks somewhat like a copper.
The caused after eating durian tembaga, it will stick to your teeth & fingers. Actually this durian is not as gassy as the original durians and the smell is not that strong either. Personally, I prefer durian tembaga. The test is phenomenal, not that sweet and the fruit is always perfectly good.
