Second, the selection method
1. See the fruiting body: select Mangosteen to see the fruiting body. The greener the fruiting body, the fresher it is. If the color of the fruiting body is dark, it means that it has been preserved for a long time and is not fresh. It is even possible that the meat inside has gone bad.
2. Pinch the shell: Fresh mangosteen shells are more elastic. If the shell is too hard, it means it is not fresh. If it is too soft, it may be soaked in water or rotten.
3. Weight: When choosing, you can weigh it down and choose the heavy one, because the heavy one means that there is more water and it is very fresh.
