Why do I have to look at the buttocks of mangosteen when buying mangosteen?

Under the purple -red shell, the flesh of the white tender water spirit is attractive water, and it can be imagined that the sweet and sour juice can be imagined between the happiness of the sweet and sour juice. This is the season of the queen of fruit -the season of mangosteen!

But about mangosteen, there are always a few big doubts in many people's heads, such as: Why are the supermarkets selling Thai mangosteen? Why do some mangosteen do not pry up like stones? If the peeling mangosteen has become transparent, can I still eat it?

Let's teach everyone to pick mangosteen today (actual version)!

01

Picking Mangosteen Dafa

/ Picking wallet like this is not hurt/

After experiencing several times I bought the mangosteen as hard as iron, and after we struggled to peel away the tragedies that could not be eaten, I finally realized that I still need to pay attention to some skills. I summarized it for everyone:

要 ❶ ❶ ❶ ❶ ❶ ❶ ❶ ❶ ❶

The first technique is actually suitable for all fruits sold by all handles and leaves. The fruit handle and sepals, the green, the harder, the more fresh this mangosteen.

❷ ❷ ❷ ❷ ❷ ❷ ❷

The color of the peel is also an auxiliary observation indicator. Purple -red and dark red are relatively fresh, while black and dark are not fresh.

❸ ❸

The thickness of the fruit shells of mangosteen generally has a thickness of about 0.8-1cm, which is an absolute face thick star, and this thick skin also implies the freshness of the mangosteen.

During the storage process, the peel of mangosteen will continue to have metabolism reactions. A significant change is that the content of lignin and crude fibers will continue to rise, and the emergence of these ingredients will continue to be lignified by the fruit shells of mangosteen. Even under refrigerated conditions, this reaction cannot be completely blocked, which can only reduce the speed of lignin synthesis. Therefore, the long -term mangosteen will become the shells, let alone pinch, and take a little effort to cut the knife.

Therefore, you can boldly pinch and rest assured when picking up the mountain. And pinching mangosteen is a routine way of choosing. The owner will not stop you when you look at it. As long as you do n’t have a lot of effort to pinch the mangosteen, then pinch Dafa must be very useful.

That kind of soft feel, slowly recovery, is fresh and good mangosteen, which is worth taking home. As for the kind of mangosteen that is tough than being squeezed than being hurt, let it continue to be beautiful alone on the booth.

❹ Look at the fart number

After mastering the previous skills, the mangosteen you brought home has been called to live up to your wallet. But mangosteen enthusiasts cannot stop here. Finding more cost -effective mangosteen is our ultimate goal!

Open a mangosteen, the flesh of garlic cloves is usually not the same size. Although the big petal looks particularly seductive, whoever eats, who knows, the huge nuclear minutes teach you to be a man. Instead, those small fruit petals, no nuclear and pure meat, the happiness of enjoying the explosion of sweet and sour fruit juice is the most intimate.

So how can we choose a lot of small petals as much as possible?

In fact, it is very simple. When you pick mangosteen, check the bottom of the bottom of the bottom -that is, the small flower of the mangosteen fart. There are several petals, and there are several peeling fruit petals.

This selection method is not metaphysics, but is related to the structure of mangosteen. The "flesh" of mangosteen is actually a fake skin that develops in the inner layer of peel. The nucleus in the large petals is the hard -working and great child. The small petals at the bottom are actually pistil stigma of mangosteen stay, which is made from multiple heart skin, and this number is consistent with the number of fake flaps.

Therefore, picking mangosteen can look at the small flowers on the butt, the more the number of petals, the better the probability of small petals without nuclear.

Generally speaking, the number of fruit petals of mangosteen is between 4-8, and the larger the number of pure meat and fruit petals, the more. The myth of 8 petals in mangosteen is the pure enjoyment version of the most meat rate, but I have no chance to see it. Generally, I love each other with 6 petagonal mangosteen.

The level and place of mangosteen

/ Select according to the price and demand/

■ The classification of mangosteen

According to quality, size, weight, mangosteen can be divided into different levels:

☛2A is Xiaotuo

中3A, 4A are Chinese fruit

大 5A, 6A is a big fruit

Generally speaking, the small fruit of 2A is basically about the same as a table tennis. Considering the thick skin of Mangosteen, buying small fruits is cheap, and it may be fainted on the spot. 3A and 4A can be selected for daily addiction, and the price is relatively close to the people. If you want to enjoy the joy of bursting juice, of course, it is 5A and 6A when the wallet allows!

Small fruit is cheap, but the consequences are too little.

■ Place of Mangosteen

The most common on the market today is "Thailand imported mangosteen".

Thailand is the largest mangosteen in the world. First of all, because the climate in Thailand is very suitable for mangosteen growth, followed by the quality of mangosteen made by Thailand. In contrast, although Malaysia is a well -known place for Mangosteen its CP -durian, mangosteen produced in Malaysia is not so popular, the reason may be that the size, quality and cost are not as good as Thailand.

There are also mangosteen that are not imported. Hainan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan and other places in China have specified mangosteen. Under the suitable climate, it can also produce excellent quality of mangosteen. The difference between imports and local mangosteen is actually not too large. When choosing, it is mainly dependent on the price. ■ Oil bamboo, sand bamboo, and bamboo bamboo

Some merchants will also give mangosteen "oil bamboo", "hemp bamboo", and "sand bamboo" on the mangosteen. What is this?

The fruit that is relatively old will be hesitant on the surface. This kind of mangosteen is called Mazhu, which is said to be more sweet. The fruits that are slightly nodied by the tree, the surface is bright and pleasant, and is called oil bamboo, which is also what we often buy. The sand bamboo is the "middle -aged bamboo" in the middle of the oil bamboo and hemp, which is the backbone of the mangosteen market.

Can such mangosteen be eaten?

/The flesh becomes transparent on the surface is yellow/

❶Prite becomes transparent

After picking it up, take it home and put the mangosteen into the refrigerator to store it. The original soft shell may also become cold in waiting. Can this mangosteen be eaten?

Generally speaking, under the conditions of refrigeration, the inferior changes and corruption speed of mangosteen will be slow, and it is still edible within a week in the refrigerator.

However, in the process of waiting for Luming Mangosteen, there are more than only the shell that changes, and the soft and tender flesh in the inside will also change. Even under refrigerated conditions, the original milky and tender flesh will gradually oxidize and deteriorate, change from milky white to transparent white, and then gradually appear yellow spots. Finally, the completion of the poor change process with a large area of ​​yellow hair.

Generally speaking, milky white is the best -flavored state, and the white transparent state called "glass bamboo" will be slightly inferior.

The appearance of this translucent appearance is because the flesh cells have self -soluble phenomena, and the degradase in the mangosteen cells itself destroys the anticorrosive membrane on the surface of the mangosteen pulp and spill high sugar fruit juice. Glass bamboo is actually the result of slight cell damage to the flesh, but because the degree of damage is low, it will not cause significant changes in the flavor. It will also make the flesh taste very soft due to changes in pectin content. Many people prefer this transparent flesh ~

"Glass Bamboo" can also be eaten | Tuwa Creative

but! If the flesh is still changing or black spots, the damage to the flesh cells is more serious, and the flavor will be obviously inferior. It is not recommended to eat it.

In short, the mangosteen who bought it at home should be eaten within 2 to 3 days.

The fruit shell is yellow

Some mangosteen also appears on the surface of yellow and yellow, which is actually the characteristic of the vine yellow plant where the mangosteen is located. The resin flowing out of the plant surface is cut out of the yellow color that looks dirty after solidification, which is actually normal. This yellow substance can also be made into pigments, so when peeling mangosteen, you accidentally dye your clothes.

This trace is mainly related to whether the mangosteen is transported by violence, although it is not a direct indicator of freshness. But if there are many traces, you can also prove that the mangosteen has experienced too much, which may not be fresh.

Other "Mangosteen" that have never been eaten

/ When can I eat it?/

Ry

The concept of "Mangosteen" can actually be applied to other species of Tenghuang, such as Garcinia Prainiana, which is also produced in Thailand and Malaysia. From the appearance, it is not so much a mangosteen. Small persimmons.

And unlike the mangosteen we are familiar with, the peel of the buttons is thin and soft, and it tastes more convenient. It is said that the flavor is similar to common mangosteen, but there is a unique citrus flavor.

To peel off its golden shell, you will find that it has white and soft flesh, and one to two huge nuclei. Compared with common mangosteen, Azhachang's sugar content will be slightly lower, but the amount of meat is more visible to the naked eye. It is said that the flavor is also the fusion of mangosteen and citrus. It is sweet and sour and very fresh.

Although it is native to South America, Azha's first commercial plantation is actually located in Queensland, northern Australia, and has been planted locally.In addition, Azha's skin is not as unbearable as mangosteen.
