It's yuzu season again!
Red-hearted, white-hearted
Sweet and sour, tender and juicy meat
But how to choose to buy
What about juicy and nutritious yuzu?
Indeed it is.
The flesh of red heart grapefruit is rich in lycopene and β-carotene. These two benefits, white-hearted grapefruit really don't have.
There is almost no lycopene in the flesh of the white-hearted grapefruit, and there is very little carotene.
In addition, the vitamin C content of red heart grapefruit is also higher than that of white heart pomelo.
Not cost-effective.
Lycopene is also found in tomatoes, watermelon, guavas, and β-carotene is found in many orange-yellow fruits and vegetables.
Whether it is red heart grapefruit or white heart grapefruit, they are very high in vitamin C, and the calorie and sugar content are not high, rich in dietary fiber such as pectin, and have a strong sense of satiety, especially suitable for people who control blood sugar, fat and lose weight. Therefore, you can choose yuzu according to your taste preferences.
There is no need to worry about this.
If the pulp is dyed in the usual way, it is impossible to dye it evenly, and the traces of the outer skin are obvious. If dyed with high-tech, the red heart pomelo itself is not expensive, and it is not necessary to develop this technology.
If you want to eat red heart grapefruit, you can eat it with confidence!
Try to choose a large pomelo, generally the big one will ripen better. Choose one with a pointed head, a short neck, and a wide and flat bottom; The peel of the fruit with a round body or a large, long head is generally thicker.
Grapefruit should choose a pomelo with a more uniform skin color, and the pomelo that is blue and green is generally not very ripe. But don't pick a grapefruit that is too yellow in color, as it will be too ripe and cause water loss, which will affect the taste.
The skin of ripe grapefruit is smooth and delicate to the touch, but it is rougher to the touch.
You can also press the grapefruit with your hand, if you can feel the hard flesh when you press the skin, it means that the skin is thin and the flesh is full; If it is very soft or very hard when pressed, the skin is thick or not fresh.
Two pomelos of the same size, with the hands of the hand, the heavy weight of the flesh is fuller, enough water.
Whole pomelo should not be stored in the refrigerator, because the humid environment is easy to make the pomelo spoil, just put it in a dry and ventilated place above 10 degrees to keep it fresh, avoid direct sunlight, do not squeeze each other, you can keep it fresh.
The peeled grapefruit can be packed into a plastic bag, sealed and put in the refrigerator (or wrapped in plastic wrap), which can effectively ensure that the moisture is not lost and the effect of preservation is achieved. But pay attention to seal it well and then put it in the refrigerator, otherwise the grapefruit is afraid of water, and putting it directly in the refrigerator will only accelerate the decay.
