Second, how to choose dried longan?
1, look outside
When choosing dried longan, many people will only choose the big one. In fact, this kind of selection is not enough. It is easy to buy poor quality longan, and we need to refer to several aspects to buy good dried longan. For dried longan with good quality, you should not only choose a big one, but also choose a brown or brown shell with no spots or depressions, which is very full. When you see such dried longan, you can rest assured to buy it.
On the contrary, if the head is relatively small, the pulp inside is very thin, the taste is not good, and the shell looks abnormal, such as particularly bright yellow. Don't buy this dried longan, it is probably dyed. In addition, there are spots on the surface of dried longan, and this dried longan has deteriorated and cannot be bought. If the shell is sunken, the quality of dried longan is poor and the taste must be bad.
2. Look at the pulp
You can randomly choose a dried longan with good quality, and the pulp inside looks full and brown. If you see that the color of the pulp is very expensive, don't buy this kind, which means the quality is very poor.
Considering that it tastes good, the thicker the pulp, the better. The thicker the pulp, the bigger the dried longan. However, small dried longan can be eaten as long as the quality is not bad, and the nutritional value is the same, but the taste is almost the same.
3. Shake and peel the shell
After seeing the appearance of dried longan, you should put it in your ear and shake it, listen to the sound and feel it. If it is dried longan with good quality, after shaking it, you can hardly hear the sound because the pulp is too full to shake. On the contrary, after shaking, I heard a noise, indicating that the quality of dried longan is not good, and the pulp inside is dry, which is not good to eat directly or to make soup.
You can also peel the shell to see the situation. If it is dried longan with good quality, the shell is easy to break when peeling. This dried longan must not be wet, so the taste is naturally better. On the contrary, when peeling, the shell should not be fragile, and one nest is pressed, so the longan is dry, which means that the longan meat inside may be moldy. It is recommended not to buy it.
The above is the introduction of dried longan, which is rich in nutritional value, but the dried longan sold in the market also has quality differences. If you want to buy high-quality dried longan, you must master the above selection methods of dried longan.
