Many friends may not know Shatian Village in Rong County, Guangxi, but when it comes to the famous Shatian pomelo, I believe a large number of friends will say that they have eaten it soon. Shatian pomelo is one of the most common pomelo varieties. Although it is planted in many places, it originated in Shatian Village, Guangxi, with a history of more than 200 years.
Mature Shatian pomelo has a bright yellow peel and a money-like ring mark at the bottom, which is also commonly known as "money seal". Shatian pomelo can also be divided into sour pomelo and sweet pomelo. The former is mostly spherical, while the latter is mostly pear-shaped. Sweet pomelo has a high fructose content, and it tastes thick, juicy and sweet.
2. Pinghe County, Zhangzhou, Fujian (Guanxi Honey Pomelo)
Pinghe County, located in Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province, is a famous hometown of overseas Chinese in Fujian. There are three major brands of agricultural products here: Guanxi honey pomelo, Sakamoto banana and Baiyaqilan tea, which is known as "the hometown of Guanxi honey pomelo in China". Guanxi honey pomelo was a very important court tribute in Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty. Today, Guanxi honey pomelo is also a national geographical indication protection product.
The average annual temperature in Pinghe County, Fujian Province is about 2 1 degree, with mild climate, fertile soil, abundant rainfall and large temperature difference between day and night in mountainous areas. Therefore, the produced Guanxi honey pomelo has thin skin and thick flesh, sweet and refreshing taste, less residue and no obvious sour taste, which can be said to have a good taste.
3. Guangdong Meizhou (Meizhou Jinyou)
Meizhou, located in the northeast of Guangdong Province, is also a very representative Hakka settlement in the world. This place belongs to the transitional zone between subtropical and tropical climate zones in Central Asia, with abundant sunshine and rainfall all year round, and the soil is mostly red loam, which is very suitable for the growth of grapefruit.
Meizhou Golden Pomelo produced here is big, with Huang Liang peel, fresh pulp, sweet honey and little residue. Meizhou Golden Pomelo is also called "natural canned" because it is resistant to transportation and storage. It is said that someone tried it for half a year and it didn't break. Today, Meizhou Golden Pomelo is also a symbolic product of chinese national geography.
4. Liangping District, Chongqing (Liangping Pomelo)
Liangping District is a district of Chongqing, located in the northeast of Chongqing. The monsoon climate here is obvious, with four distinct seasons and less sunshine, which is more suitable for the growth of Liangping pomelo. Liangping pomelo is also the main specialty in Liangping District of Chongqing, and it is a geographical indication product of agricultural products in China.
Liangping pomelo generally ripens at 5438+00 every June. Big, single fruit weighs about 2 kg to 3 kg. The flesh inside is light yellow, tender and crisp, with high sweetness, less sour taste and easy peeling. In addition, Liangping pomelo, Shatian pomelo in Guangxi and Wendan pomelo in Fujian are also called the three famous pomelo in China.
5. Fujian Xianyou (Wendan pomelo)
I mentioned Shatian Pomelo in Guangxi and Liangping Pomelo in Chongqing among the three famous pomelo in China, and then I will talk about Wendan Pomelo among the three famous pomelo. Wendan pomelo is one of the four famous fruits in Putian, Fujian Province (the other three are litchi, longan and loquat), which is mainly produced in Dewey Town, Xianyou County, Fujian Province, so it is also called Dewey Wendan pomelo.
As a symbolic product in chinese national geography, Wendan pomelo is usually picked after the middle of 10 every year. The shape of Tuwei Wendan pomelo is relatively flat, a bit like a big guy. Its skin is bluish yellow, its meat is tender and soft, and there are few seeds in it. It tastes juicy and sweet.
