Selection method of pumpkin:
Want to choose a good pumpkin, we should start from the following aspects.
First of all, from the color of the skin, the darker the color of the golden pumpkin, the clearer, heavier and more mature the stripes are; Green pumpkins, black and green pumpkins are mature pumpkins. No matter what variety, the deeper the edge, the more bulging the melon petals.
Followed by the smell, the ripe pumpkin has a fragrance, and the immature pumpkin has a cabbage flavor. Finally, the old pumpkin skin is hard and tight. If the pumpkin skin is broken when you pinch it, it proves that the maturity is not enough.
In addition, pinch the short stems on the pumpkin with your hands. If it feels hard, it proves that the timing of pumpkin picking is more appropriate. Cut pumpkin can also look at melon seeds, because the fullness of melon seeds is also one of the manifestations of high maturity of pumpkin.
