Several good methods of selecting durian are very practical.

Lead: buy durian, don't pick the cracked one, teach you 6 tricks, pick out "mom" durian, which is thin and thick, fragrant and sweet!

It's the season to eat durian again. Durian is a particularly controversial fruit with a special and strong smell. Different people have different descriptions of this special smell. Some people think the taste of durian is unbearable, while others think it is very fragrant. Durian is known as the "king of fruits" because of its high nutritional value, which has many functions, such as invigorating spleen and qi, tonifying kidney and strengthening yang, promoting blood circulation and dispelling cold, and relieving dysmenorrhea. Although the price is as high as tens of yuan a catty, it is still deeply loved by female friends.

The most common durian varieties on the market are Golden Pillow and Maoshanwang. The Golden Pillow is the most popular and can be bought all year round. Its smell is not particularly strong, which is very suitable for friends who try durian for the first time. Maoshanwang has good quality and delicate taste, but its price is much higher than that of gold pillow. You must keep your eyes open when you buy such expensive fruit. If you buy thick leather, or raw, overcooked and spoiled, it will be a big loss.

Today, the durian promotion in the fruit shop downstairs in our community is only 18.9 kg. I spent 89 yuan to buy a durian weighing 4 kg and 6 kg, with a net pulp of 2.5 kg, which is sweet and delicious. The following chef will share with you the experience and skills of picking durian. According to the method I shared, picking durian won't cost money.

Six skills for selecting durian:

The first trick: when we choose durian, we should look at the ears of durian. If the ears of durian are thick and short, its skin is thin and its flesh is rich and full. Pinch the tips of two adjacent spikes with your hands. If the ear is soft, the maturity of durian is relatively high. If you can't squeeze it out, it means durian is sandwich. Don't buy such durian.

The second trick: look at the size, color and bottom of durian. Durian with big head, yellow color and flat bottom has many fleshy, full and high maturity.

The third measure: look at the size of the crack. Many friends believe that the bigger the opening, the higher the maturity. Actually, this is a misunderstanding. When buying durian, you should choose one with slight cracks or one that can be gently pried open with a knife. Don't choose the one with big cracks. If the crack is too big, the pulp will be exposed, which is easy to deteriorate or pollute.

The fourth measure: smell the cooked durian, smell the fragrance, and smell the grass fragrance for the raw or immature durian. If it smells of wine, it means that the pulp of this durian has gone bad. Don't buy such durian.

Fifth, look at the fruit handle of durian. If the fruit handle of durian is thick and fresh, there will be traces when it is pinched with nails, indicating that durian is fresh and has superior taste and nutritional value. On the contrary, it is durian that has been stored for a long time, and the pulp may have deteriorated, so it is not recommended to buy it.

The sixth trick: shake the pulp, pick up the durian and gently shake it in your ear. If you can feel the flesh shaking gently, it is a durian with high maturity. If the pulp is firm, it is a raw durian.
