The ways to select durians with thin skin and rich flesh include: pinching the spikes, checking the maturity of the durian, observing the appearance of the durian, and checking whether the flesh is elastic.

Durians are now on the market in large quantities, and are more expensive than ordinary fruits. In the past, buying durians felt like gambling on a stone. I bought several, but when I cut them open, they had very little meat and thin skin. It is very thick. Here is a detailed introduction on how to select durian.

Look at the spikes: The durian is covered with "hills", commonly known as "maces". Generally, if it is big and short, the flesh will be rich and full, and the skin will be thin; if it is long and sharp, the flesh will be weak. Not very plump and thick-skinned.

Check the maturity of the durian: Select two adjacent spikes, pinch the tips of the spikes with your hands, and pinch them inward with a little force. If it is easier, you can get them "closer" to each other. , it means the durian is soft and relatively ripe; if it feels very firm and cannot be pinched at all, it means the durian is relatively raw.

Look at the appearance of the durian. If the durian is large and short, the pulp will be rich, full and thin. If it is long and pointed, be careful because the pulp inside is likely to be empty. The color of the durian shell is relatively transparent yellow, which means it is relatively mature. The picture below is definitely immature.

Secondly, it’s time to choose the brand and variety. Golden Pillow and Gan Yao durians are the most common on the market, among which the Zhengzi durian brand has the best quality.

Finally, pick some fruit whose flesh is elastic to the touch and has no obvious bruises on the surface. The durian flesh is the freshest every morning and noon. The strong durian aroma is also an obvious feature. The golden skin is better. Milky white means life.
