How to distinguish winter jujube?
1, look at the color
The color of authentic winter jujube peel naturally transits, and the three colors of green-yellow-red are mixed. Saccharin jujube, on the other hand, has a clear distinction between green and red (this is due to the boundary between the water surface when soaking in water), or it turns completely red with no green or yellow at all.
2. Touch the epidermis
Authentic winter jujube peel is full and round, crisp and tough to the touch. Soak in hot water for a few hours, the peel will inevitably wrinkle a little, especially the tail is easy to soften and fester. Just like taking a bath for too long in winter, our finger skin will wrinkle.
3. Taste it
Authentic winter jujube tastes fragrant and sweet, with thin skin and sweet meat, and it is delicious. The winter jujube soaked in saccharin is peeled, but it can't soak the heart, and the skin is sweet and the meat is not sweet. And the sweetness of the skin is particularly heavy, which leads to bitter taste after eating.
4. Don't be impatient
Please remember that good food is worth waiting for! If you wait patiently until the middle and late October when winter dates are officially listed, I can assure you that it is not easy for you to choose saccharin dates. As soon as the real person appears, the supply is sufficient, and there is nowhere to hide the fake.
