Midsummer sweetness is coming! Xishan Island figs will be available soon

Summer is getting stronger

It's fruit-rich season again

Another week or so

Sweet and soft figs are about to hit the market!

In the fig orchard located on the island

Rows of fruit trees are luxuriant

The branches are full of hanging

Figs the size of bells

Small green fruits

Dotted between the fat leaves

It's cute

Midsummer sweetness is coming! Xishan Island figs will be available soon

And in a green fruit

Some of the fruit is already showing a flush

It indicates that the fruit is about to ripen

Midsummer sweetness is coming! Xishan Island figs will be available soon

Each fig tree is adorned

Fruits like xiaolongbao

The color varies from blue to red

Grows in an orderly manner from bottom to top

Ripe figs

Peel off the thin outer skin

The inside is white with red flesh

Take a bite down

Crispy and fluffy, sweet and soft

Sweetness wells up from the tip of the tongue

Midsummer sweetness is coming! Xishan Island figs will be available soon

When choosing figs, don't judge them by their appearance

The ripe fruit is a little wrinkled on the outside

Or even crack directly

But it's the sweetest fruit that is!

Although it looks ugly

But that's the best of figs

Midsummer sweetness is coming! Xishan Island figs will be available soon

Picking with brute force can hurt the fruit

And figs will exud white "proteases"

It has an irritating effect on the skin

So be careful when picking it

Generally, a slight twist is sufficient

So how do you choose figs?

Look at the color: the dark-colored figs are ripe fruits, while the ones that are particularly green are mostly not ripe. Unripe taste is not good, can not be chosen.

Look at the size: try to choose the big ones, the big ones are not only ripe, but also full of flesh.

Look at the tail: The tail of the fig is open, and if the mouth is too open, it will easily get into the dust. Therefore, choose a smaller one to avoid the bacteria inside.

Look at the peel: the surface of the fruit can be pinched, if the surface is particularly hard, it should be a fig that is not ripe, and the taste is not good. If it's too soft, it's probably rotten inside. Just choose the kind of slightly soft, just ripe fruit.

Look at the whole: Look at the whole of the fig is intact, not broken, and there is no place to rot. Then there is no loss of moisture due to the wrinkling of the epidermis, and basically such figs can be selected.
