Durian Ice Fermented

Do you understand what durian is? Durian is somekind of fruit that only grow in Southeast Asian area including Indonesia. That's why we can always eat it and you don't. Please read durian in Wikipedia if you still don't get what I talking about.

It taste really good, but be careful it can be really bad if you eat it a lot. It will turns you madly, well hey I'm really serious in here. My friends eats more than 1 Kg of durian and he puke after that in the closet. Doesn't it sound really bad? Well no... It depends how you eat it. Actually durian sometimes referred to the fruit from heaven. This is the most expensive fruit in Southeast Asia because it has crop season at it's own and you can't eat it all the time you wanted to.

But when the time is come to crop season the durians will all over the market and you can eat lots of it until you get drunk because of it.

Making Durian Ice is so easy. Just put some ice, milk, sugar, and put it at refrigerator for 3 days. It will make the durian fermented and make the taste will even better.

You can see the picture, how it looks good isn't it? :D
