Number one: Look. Picking melons mainly depends on the color, grain and pedicle of the skin. Generally, the lines are clear, deep and distinct, and the luster is bright.

As the saying goes, the melon is ripe, so while seeing the lines clearly, see if the navel of the melon is concave inward. If it is concave, it must be cooked.

Second: touch. When choosing melons, you should use your palm to cross the skin. If you think watermelon is smooth, it is naturally a good watermelon. On the other hand, if the surface is astringent or sticky, it is not good.

Third: Listen. First, hold the watermelon in your hand and pat it gently with your fingers to make a crisp sound of "dong, dong". The hand holding the watermelon feels a little shaky. It's a ripe melon. If the sound of "thump, thump" is a reflection of high maturity, it is generally bought and eaten every few days at home, and this kind of melon can become the first choice; It makes a "poof, poof" sound. This is a ripe melon. Don't buy this. Sometimes when I go home and cut it, my mouth will be deformed and taste like cotton candy, soft and tasteless. In addition, the sound of "click, click" is definitely a melon.

Fourth: OK. If you hold a melon in both hands, you can follow the trend. The more mature a watermelon is, the lighter its weight is. Generally, watermelons of the same size should be light, and those that are overweight are raw melons.

I hope I can help you.
