How to choose durian in the supermarket

Durian is a fruit that is only produced in a few tropical areas in the south of China. The production is not large. Because of its high nutritional value, it has become a high-end specialty fruit in major cities and is mostly sold in some large supermarkets. Some people are still unfamiliar with durian. They don't know how to choose durian when they see big and small, green, blue and yellow durian. In fact, there are many tips for choosing durian. I will write them down later so that everyone can understand how to choose durian when buying it in the supermarket.

How to choose durian in the supermarket

1. When buying durian in the supermarket, you should first look at the appearance

When you buy durian in the supermarket, you should first look at its appearance. The durian that is long in appearance and has multiple protrusions on the surface is the most worth buying. It looks a bit like a mace. Such durian has thin skin and a lot of flesh, and the seeds are particularly small. It tastes relatively sweet and is the best durian.

2. When buying durian in the supermarket, check the thorns on the surface

When buying durian in the supermarket, you can look at the thorns on its surface. If the thorns on the surface are sparse, it means that the flesh of the durian is very thick. If the thorns are very dense, it means that the flesh of the durian is relatively small. In addition, if you find tiny cracks on the skin of the durian, you can also buy it. The durian with cracks tastes the sweetest, which is a sign of its natural maturity.

3. Buy durian in the supermarket and smell and feel it

When buying durian in the supermarket, you should buy the ones with moderate hardness. If it feels too hard, it is mostly not ripe, while if it feels too soft, it may be overripe and may have gone bad when you open it. In addition, you can also smell the durian when buying it. If there is a pungent smell, it means that the durian is about to go bad and it is not recommended to buy and eat it.
