In summer, Lingnan fruits are listed one after another, and after lychee is made, the yellow skin is created, which is a very flavorful fruit, sweet and cough-relieving. In Gaoming, there is an orchard with a new method, and the yellow skin planted can be eaten together with the skin, and we can go to see it together.
In this orchard in Shetang Village next to Hopewell Avenue, at a glance, ten acres of yellow bark trees are white, why? When I got closer, I saw that each tree was covered with a net, and faintly, the branches inside the net were covered with yellow to brown fruits. Uncle Zhong, the boss, said that this is a new method this year.
Each yellowbark tree is covered with a net.
In summer, you will be happiest when you pick and eat Lingnan fruits, but what is the safest and most secure? Uncle Zhong said that people get into the net cover, pick off the yellow peel fruit in the net, and you can eat it directly, bite the skin, there is no sourness, but there is a unique fragrance, and the yellow skin here can be eaten with the skin.
"This year, we will spend enough money to plant scientifically with the method of net cover, and we do not have to worry about pesticide residues if we do not fall pesticides and insects. A net is about 45 yuan, the cost is expensive, but the price is expensive, and the fruit is about 20 days before the fruit is ripe. Uncle Zhong, the person in charge of Jia Orchard, said.
Native to the tropical and subtropical regions of southern China, Huangpi is the best fruit in Lingnan, its juice is rich and fragrant, and it is a fruit with good color, fragrance and taste. In addition to being eaten fresh after the yellow peel fruit is ripe, it can also be processed into candied fruit, preserved fruit, jam, jelly, fruit cake and fruit juice with aromatic characteristics, and can also be made into salted and candied food.
The yellow peel in the net is of good quality, and the fruit is large and full.
There is a folk saying that "one lychee has three fires", so many people dare not eat more lychees. However, yellow peel has the reputation of "the treasure of fruits", which is rich in vitamins, riboflavin, organic acids, volatile oils, pectin, retinol and flavonoids and other nutrients.
In the "Dictionary of Traditional Chinese Medicine", there are relevant records of yellow peel: yellow peel fruit is sweet, sour, and warm. Its main effects are to eliminate appetite, regulate qi and dissolve phlegm. It can effectively improve problems such as food accumulation, phlegm, cough and asthma, chest and diaphragm pain.

Uncle Zhong's orchard has three varieties of yellow skin, namely seedless chicken heart yellow skin, seeded chicken heart yellow skin and rock sugar yellow skin. Uncle Zhong said that in the past few years, the yellow skin was ripe, and many people came to pick it from a large family, and when the children were so happy that they even bit the skin, parents always had to remind them to wash it before eating, which may make the children a little disappointed. Under the guidance of experts, this year, when the yellow bark is still more than 20 days old, the whole tree is covered with a net to prevent insects and bees, and to prevent the sparrows that "the yellow bark tree is not ripe and does not eat". After the summer solstice, different varieties of yellow peel have matured, the yellow peel color is good, the loss is less, the quality rate is high, and the effect seems to be very good. The yellow skin has the effect of dissolving and relieving cough, and this year's picking tour can be eaten with the skin, which is more flavorful.
Uncle Zhong also taught the practice of honey yellow skin, pick the seedless yellow skin, scald the skin with hot water, dry it until it is dry, and then soak it with bee secret, which can be stored for a year, eat a few grains when you cough more, or scoop a spoonful of yellow skin honey to drink water, which has a good effect.
