1. Look at the color. When choosing lotus mist, first look at the appearance color. The darker the color, the more mature the lotus mist is, the sweeter it is, and the more delicious it is. Black pearls, which are extremely red, are the sweetest, followed by dark red pearls. The color of lotus mist in summer is lighter and purple-red, while in winter it is darker and closer to purple. One method is to choose the color of lotus mist according to seasonal changes.

2. Weigh the weight. The large ones of lotus mist are more delicious. They are larger than eggs. If they are too small, the taste will be worse. When choosing, you might as well weigh it in your hands. The heavier lotus seeds have more water and the pulp is crisper. If the lotus mist is lighter, of course the situation is opposite. Generally speaking, if there are 4 pieces of lotus mist weighing a pound, it is a high-grade product, and if there are less than 7 pieces, it is a low-grade product. If 4-5 pieces per pound are of average quality, 5-6 pieces are of average quality.

3. Sweetness. Generally, the sweetness can only be determined by taste. The sweeter the lotus mist, the better the texture. Some fruit farmers are willing to let buyers try lotus mist, and they can buy satisfactory lotus mist according to their personal sweetness standards. Of course, if the fruit grower is unwilling to let buyers try the taste, don’t be discouraged. There are other ways to select good quality lotus mist.

4. Observe the meat quality. Use your hands to check whether the meat is thick. The thicker the better. Or if possible, you can cut it open to check the quality of the flesh. The thicker the flesh, the better the quality. Lianwu with thin skin, more meat and less sponginess is of better quality.

5. Look at the texture. For Lianwu, you should choose ones with a more obvious skin and pulp texture. Because if it receives sufficient nutrition and sufficient sunshine during the growth process, the pulp of lotus root will be relatively strong, just like a human being, it will naturally have muscle texture on the surface. If the skin is smooth, it means the pulp is not firm and it is not recommended to buy.

6. Look at the fruit base. When selecting the lotus root, gently press the fruit base of the lotus root with your hands to see if it is too soft. If the fruit base is too soft, it means that the lotus root has been placed for a long time, and the pulp inside may begin to become soft and rotten. Recommended to purchase.

7. Look at the bottom. In addition to paying attention to the color, etc., the maturity can also be identified from the appearance. It is recommended to look at the bottom under the lotus mist. The wider the bottom is, the more mature it is.
