Tips for choosing mangosteens

Mangosteen is a fruit that many people like to eat, but its price is relatively high when it is sold in the market. If you buy mangosteens of poor quality, it will be a bit of a loss. So you must be careful when purchasing mangosteen. Today I will introduce to you a good way to choose mangosteen, and also let you master the tricks of choosing mangosteen.

Tips for choosing mangosteen

1. Look at the appearance

When choosing mangosteen, look at its appearance. This is a trick that people must master, because the skin of high-quality fresh mangosteen will not have any defects or damage, and the leaves underneath the smooth and round skin are also relatively fresh. If you find cracks in the skin of mangosteen, or residues of ants and insects, do not buy it.

2. Look at the feel

When choosing mangosteens, you can weigh mangosteens of the same size in your hand. If the mangosteen in your hand feels light and has no weight, it means that the mangosteen is no longer fresh and is no longer suitable for purchase and use. If you find that the quality of two mangosteens in your hand is similar, you can buy it with confidence.

A good way to choose mangosteen

1. Look at the bottom leaves

When choosing mangosteen, you will find several green leaves at the bottom of the mangosteen. If the leaves at the bottom of the mangosteen are still bright green, it means that it is fresh mangosteen. If you find that the leaves at the bottom have turned black or brown, it means that the mangosteen is no longer fresh. Even if it has not rotted or deteriorated, it has lost a lot of water.

3. Pinch the shell

When you are picking mangosteen, you can also pinch its shell with your hands. Fresh and good quality mangosteens have a certain elasticity. When people pinch their shells, they will feel that their shells can quickly return to their original state. If the mangosteen has lost a lot of water, its shell will be very hard and you will feel that you can't pinch it at all.

The above introduces a good method to select mangosteen, and also allows everyone to master the tricks of selecting mangosteen. In the future, when you want to buy mangosteen, you can select it according to the correct method introduced above. In this way, you can choose fresh and high-quality mangosteen, and you can also absorb the effective nutrients in mangosteen after eating it.
