Durian makes people love and worry. Those who like it think it is fragrant and sweet, and those who don’t like it smell like “cat poop”. No, it’s the peak season for durians again. There are a lot of durians on sale in the supermarket, and you can smell the aroma of durians before entering the supermarket. really tasty. At first glance the price is relatively expensive. It might just be on the market for a while. The price is a bit high, but it doesn’t hinder my determination to eat durian.
When many people choose durians, they often choose one at random based on their own vision, or listen to the salesperson who sells durians. When they bought it home, they realized they had been fooled. The durians they drove out were not only meatless, but also undercooked. What a waste of money. After all, a durian worth a few hundred dollars cannot go away. So learn how to pick durians to avoid being fooled.
What kind of durian is worth buying, and what kind of durian is not worth buying? What kind of durian is sweeter, and what kind of durian is not delicious? These are all tricks. When buying durians, many people just try their luck and buy casually. Most of them are disappointed. In order to let everyone know how to choose durians, I specially bought two durians to show you the results. The result is not surprising at all. Before showing the results, I shared my four tips for picking durians, friends who like them must learn.
Tip 1: Look at the shape.
A general durian has up to 5 protrusions, that is to say, there are 5 durian meats inside. But generally there are very few durians that are so perfect, so the durian we tried looks round with five bulges. Generally, such durian meat is sweet and uniform in size. There are also those deformed durians, try not to choose them. Because these deformed durians are not balanced in nutrition during the growth process, one side is big and the other is small, or one side is flat and the other is convex. There are not many such durian meats, and the sweetness of these durian meats is also different. The raised side may be sweeter, while the flat side may be lighter.
Tip 2: Pinch the spikes.
When we buy durian, we can also feel the maturity of durian with our hands, that is, use our fingers to pinch the two spikes next to the durian shell. If you can feel soft when you pinch it, and you can still get close to each other, it proves that the durian is already very mature and worth buying. And if the two spikes cannot be squeezed out, or if it feels hard, it means that the durian is still in a more delicious stage.
The secret3: Smell
Pick up the durian and smell it close to your nose. If you can smell the faint fragrance of durian, it means that it is ripe and worth buying. But if you can’t smell the durian or the durian smell is particularly strong, it means the durian is raw or overcooked. In this case, you cannot buy it. After all, the flesh of raw durian is neither sweet nor tasty at all, and an overcooked durian may be going bad.
Tip 4: Look at the cracks.
In a mature durian, you can see a few slight cracks, which is just a sign of its maturity. This kind of durian tastes quite delicious, and the sweetness is not bad, it is the best stage to eat. Try not to choose durians without cracks or durians with very large cracks. It’s either immature without cracks, or overripe. The larger the crack, the easier it is to be polluted by dust or other substances in the air. So it is recommended to buy durians with slight cracks.
Finally, let’s see the result. The durian I chose was based on the above four tips. It can be seen that the flesh is relatively uniform and plump, very sweet. I have used these four tips to pick durians no less than ten times, and I am very satisfied every time I open them. If you like durians but don’t know how to choose them, please learn the above four tips. You will never need someone to help you choose again, and you will not be disappointed.
When buying durian, keep in mind the four selection skills. The picked durian is very sweet, no more wasting money. There is one durian left to eat tomorrow. After all, durian is a hot fruit, so you can’t eat too much. Well, today I will share the tips for picking durians here. Friends who like to eat durian, hurry up and learn, don’t waste money anymore!
