Durian toast for Durian season - Thai PBS World Tonight [11th March 2021]

Durian season is coming, and who doesn’t love durian? This food shop in Ban Pong district of Ratchaburi province has created “durian custard toast” for customers who love the pungent fruit.

The food shop owner, Nichadapa Dechapattanapanya, who created durian custard toast, says she wants to serve customers who love durian, which is often called “the king of Thai fruit”.

The durian custard, as she explains, is a mixture of Mon-Thong durian and homemade cream custard, which has a unique sweetness and aroma while being eaten with toasted bread.

Nichadapa is a dedicated foodie, who loves street food, cooking and baking. She decided to open her food shop in her hometown, and chose toasted bread as the main menu item, as it is a good snack for customers of all ages.
