What else should you pay attention to when choosing good fruits besides looking at the outside

Faced with a variety of colorful fresh fruits in the market. We all can't help but bring some home, and fruit has basically become a daily necessity for us. However, when it comes to buying fresh fruits, many people do not know how to choose the fruits. Sometimes, the various fruits seen with the naked eye are so dazzling that one’s eyes are dazzled. Moreover, some fruit vendors take advantage of us because we don’t know how to choose fruits. But we don't know. But in fact, who doesn’t want to buy some fresh, delicious and nutritious fruits? It’s just that we lack experience in choosing them. So facing this problem, let us learn together how to choose delicious and good fruits.

1. Size

Apples, pears, peaches, etc. come in large, medium, and small sizes. Large fruits indicate normal development and can reflect the flavor of the variety. On the contrary, the smaller the fruit, the worse the flavor. But the fruit is too large, the flesh is loose, and it is not easy to store. In addition, some fruit varieties are small in size, such as Beijing white pears, Nanfeng mandarin oranges, and seedless white grapes. Although they are small in size, they have excellent flavor. So you should rely on experience.

2. Color

Color is an important indicator of whether fruit is ripe or not. For example, tangerines usually turn yellow in color, orange-red or bright red when ripe. Unripe oranges are completely green or half green, and have poor flavor. If the banana peel is green, it means it is not quite ripe, while if there are black spots on the banana peel, it means it is overripe. Yellow bananas, apples and pears taste best when they are golden yellow. But some varieties, such as Greening No. 3 Peach, Green Banana and Indian Apple, are exceptions as they are mainly green in color.

3. Look at the surface of the fruit

This is the most intuitive way to observe fruit quality. Fruits with bright colors, regular shapes, delicate and smooth texture and luster are generally of good quality. Although some fruits have rust on the surface, it has no effect on the quality. Fruits with bruises or bumps on the surface should not be stored for a long time.

4. Smell the aroma

Most ripe fruits have a strong aroma, which is due to the volatile oils contained in the fruit. The absence of aroma indicates that the fruit is not quite ripe.

Although fruits are good for our bodies, we also need to learn how to choose when buying fruits. Such fruits can better bring us beneficial benefits. I hope these four small methods can help you gain some experience in choosing fruits in the future.
