Durian Isu / Isau from Sarawak

 I'm sure many of you have not seen these types of durian unless you are from the Borneo. There are few types of the untypical durian that I've found. The above red durian is a very rare species and the photo above is shared by a friend from Limbang, I hope she will bring some for me this coming week-end. The one below is deep bright orangy color known as Isu and some call it Isau. The taste is quite distinct from the typical durian but equally stench.

Another type of durian which has orangy vivid color is Ukak but the taste is not similar to either Isu or typical durian. You can see Ukak that I've posted last time here.
 See the color difference compared to the ordinary durian - such a deep vivid orange color. Wait for my next post to see what I create from Isu apart from eating them raw.....! Many thanks to Q for the two packs of durian below!
