How to choose durian?
1, look at the shape
Durian looks like a mace. When choosing durian, you can choose durian with larger body and rounder overall outline. This kind of durian is thin and fleshy, and each pulp is only attached to the shell, which will make it look full, while those durians with strange shapes and cracked melons will have empty fruits. These durians have small flesh and not too thick skin and meat.
2. Look at this color
When selecting durian, pay attention to observe that the color of durian is golden yellow or transparent yellow, with tiny cracks at the bottom and slightly bent outward. Through the cracks, we can see that the flesh is golden yellow and the meat is sweet and soft, while if the flesh is white, it is raw and has a bad taste.
The large durian pulp tastes better, and the large cracks indicate that durian is overripe or broken, which is easy to pollute the pulp and has a poor taste. If the color of durian is light blue, it means that durian is not ripe yet. If the color is dark and yellowish brown, the durian is too ripe. Pay attention to avoid these two kinds of durian when choosing.
3. Look at these nails
According to the ear density in durian shell, it can be judged whether the pulp of durian is mature or not. The thinner the spike, the thicker the pulp, while the denser the spike, the less the pulp. These durians, covered with spikes, have a large base, a gentle and upward taste, and are not so dense and fleshy. On the contrary, the ear is small and thin, the durian is immature and the flesh is less.
Gently put two connected nails together by hand. Judging from the hardness of the ear, if you can pinch it gently, it means that durian is ripe and edible. If it is difficult to get close, it feels hard, which means durian is not mature, so durian is not delicious.
4. Look at this handle
Judging the maturity of durian by whether the stem of durian root falls off or not, if the stem of durian is thick and complete, it means that durian is fresh, but the stem of durian with joint falling off is mature, the pulp is rotten and smelly, and the joint is intact, then durian is raw, so durian tastes raw and not very delicious. Fresh durian that has just been picked will leave traces when pinched with nails, while durian with small fruit handle means that it has been picked and stored for a long time, which is neither fresh nor delicious.
Step 5 smell it
Pick up a slightly cracked durian and judge whether the durian is mature or not by the smell from the crack. If durian smells too light and has a green taste, it means that durian is not mature enough to eat for a few more days. If durian smells like alcohol, it is because the sugar in durian has dissolved, which means durian is overcooked or even spoiled, and it will taste slightly bitter. Fresh and ripe durian will have a strong sweetness.
