What is the sweetness of kiwi fruit? What are the requirements for selecting kiwi fruit?

We all know that kiwi fruit is rich in vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, etc. It tastes sweet and delicious, has high nutritional value, and is a popular fruit. Many people eat kiwi fruit frequently. There are many varieties of kiwi fruit on the market, so what kind of kiwi fruit is delicious? Let's take a closer look!

How to choose kiwi fruit

1. Look at the epidermis. The epidermis is plump and evenly colored (which means the light is even and sufficient).

2. Check the feel of the fruit. It should be elastic and not concave or partially soft (which means it may have been bumped when picking the fruit).

3. Look at the color. The yellow heart kiwifruit has a yellow-brown skin, the red heart kiwifruit has a smooth brown skin, and the green heart kiwifruit has a green-brown skin with raised fruit.

4. Look at the size and try to choose a moderate size

5. Look at the hardness. Different varieties have different hardnesses and should be treated differently.

Tips for choosing macaques

Look at the appearance

Pay attention to whether the kiwi fruit has mechanical damage. If there are small bruises, soft spots, or damage, do not buy them.

As long as there is a little damage, the injured part will quickly become soft, sour, or even rot. In this way, the kiwi fruit will become soft and change its taste before it matures normally, seriously affecting the edible quality of the kiwi fruit.

Look at the color

When choosing kiwis, choose those with a light green stem and a slightly darker skin, because kiwis with a light green stem are more durable, while the slightly darker skin means that the fruit is ripe and sweet.

If the skin is green or uneven in color, it is unripe. If the skin is close to khaki, it means there is sufficient sunlight and the flesh is sweeter.

By feel

Kiwis with only one soft part are rotten; while fully ripe kiwis are soft throughout the fruit and will easily go bad if not stored for a long time. I do not recommend buying these two types of kiwis.

If the fruit is hard, it is unripe; but if the fruit is very soft or puffy with a strange smell, it means that the kiwi is overripe or rotten, and these two types of fruits should not be purchased.

It is best to choose fruits that are slightly soft and have consistent overall hardness and softness, as these fruits are at their most mature.

Smell the aroma

The aroma of the fruit can be used to determine whether the kiwi is ripe: ripe kiwis have fragrance; if the fruit has no aroma and tastes sour, it is not ripe.

Where is the best place to eat kiwi fruit?

When buying kiwifruit, you need to choose the origin. The taste of different origins varies greatly. The recognized origins are Zhouzhi in the northern foot of Qinling Mountains, the black soil area of ​​Mei County, and some areas in Sichuan. The temperature difference between day and night is large, and the fruit has high sugar content! Just like Aksu apples, Xinjiang Hami melons, etc.

Main kiwifruit producing areas in China:

1. Guizhou and western Hunan (such as Zunyi, Liupanshui, etc.) Guizhou is one of the best kiwifruit growing areas in the world.

2. Shaanxi (mainly along the line from Xi'an to Zhouzhi) is mainly based on the green heart.

3. Henan (Funiu Mountain, Tongbai Mountain, Dabie Mountain area)
