Longan shopping skills
It should be noted that the dried longan shell is hard and brittle, fragile, and it is audible to bite the core with your teeth. For people who are affected with damp, the shell will only shrink and not be fragile, and the bite will be tough and the gravel will be silent. Therefore, when selecting, you must pinch it by hand to see if there is a crisp sound. Good dried longan granules are round, large and uniform, and the shell color is Huang Liang. So be sure to choose such high-quality longan, and the taste will be better.
It should be noted that longan with thick and sweet meat is heavier and better in quality than longan with poor sweetness. And it depends on whether it is moldy or whether there are bugs eating it. If there are white moldy flowers on the shell, it means that the meat inside is rotten, so it is best not to buy them.
