Nowadays, supermarkets and vegetable markets supply all kinds of fruits and vegetables all year round, which leads many young people to become confused about seasonal things and don't know what to produce in what season. As the saying goes, eating food in the right season and place rarely makes you sick. Confucius also said that if you don't eat regularly, don't eat things that are out of season.
Take fruits and vegetables for example. Fruits and vegetables are different all year round. How should I eat them? I think it is necessary for everyone to know the natural maturity time of fruits and vegetables in the four seasons, so I will give you a detailed introduction of flowers today, and everyone should remember to collect and forward them!

Well, the seasonal vegetables and fruits of the four seasons have been introduced to you. Next, I will introduce a very practical trick. When buying fruit, how to judge whether the fruit is ripe or naturally ripe?
1 For example, mangoes, naturally ripe mangoes, will show uniform yellow, while mature mangoes, with small heads and tips, will show emerald green and look unnatural.
You can also pinch it gently with your hand. Or take mango as an example. Naturally ripe mangoes are moderate in hardness and elasticity, while ripe mangoes are soft to pinch, easy to break and not resistant to storage.
2. For bananas, the skin of naturally cooked bananas has a "plum blossom point", and the banana core is soft and sweet to eat; Mature banana peel generally has no plum blossom spots, and its color is bright yellow, but it tastes astringent, difficult to taste and has no fragrance.
For strawberries, ripe strawberries look red, but they taste sour. Because many strawberries use erythropoietin, as long as they are stained with it, they will soon turn red; However, the normal strawberry color will not be very bright, and there will be white and green at the tip and near the bottom of the strawberry, and the overall red color will be uneven, but it tastes fresh and sweet and refreshing.
Well, that's all for today, friends. Leave a message to share your skills in choosing vegetables and fruits.
