Loquat is a specialty fruit produced in tropical regions, but this fruit is mostly not fully ripe when harvested. The loquats people buy in the market will feel a little hard. Some loquats are ripened with drugs. Some people are afraid of buying loquats ripened with drugs, so they dare not buy and eat loquats. This is unnecessary, because ripened loquats can be identified. If you want to learn, let me teach you a few tricks. How to identify ripened loquats1. The appearance of loquats ripened with drugs will change, especially the two ends of the loquat. If there are indentations or protrusions, do not buy them. Even if they are not ripened with drugs, hormones were used during their growth or storage, which is particularly harmful to the body after consumption. 2. The ripened loquats will be less sweet when eaten, and when you spit out the loquat seeds, you will find that there are some fine hairs on the seeds, just like a beard. If you find such loquats, try not to eat them, because this kind of loquats are mostly ripened with hormone drugs during their production, and they are also relatively large in size, but they are not safe to eat. 3. In order to reduce the chance of buying ripened loquats, you can choose to buy those that are harder. After returning home, you can put them in a higher temperature environment to ripen them. You can also put loquats together with apples or other fruits, seal them, and the loquats will soften and fully ripen in about two days. This ripening method is harmless to the human body and can increase the safety of people eating loquats. |
