It is currently the orange soup season with its characteristic fresh, delicious, and sweet taste. However, housewives should also pay attention to 4 ways to choose quality orange soup, avoiding thick skin, porous flesh and low water content.
Thin shell, close to the muscles
This is one of the important criteria for choosing delicious canh oranges. Thin, flexible peels and closely clinging to the inside will be juicy, sweet canh oranges.
Housewives, when observing, carefully look at the shape of orange segments on the skin. Conversely, canh oranges with thick, rough skins or when touched, feeling that the skin and intestines are not sticky, are usually watery, dry oranges or poor quality hybrid oranges.
Natural colors, not too glossy
Old and sweet canh oranges are usually red in color mixed with orange-yellow, the color is not too glossy but may have tan spots. Don't rush to be attracted by oranges with bright red color, thick and glossy skin. These are usually signs of oranges sprayed with stimulants or hybrid oranges, when eaten they will feel bland and sour.
Besides, the bottom of delicious canh oranges is usually slightly yellowish-yellow or light green, slightly indented inside. Fruits with protruding bottoms are often oranges that are not ripe enough or hybrid.
Moderate size
Unlike many other fruits, the larger the canh orange, the higher the risk of being bland and dry. Practical experience shows that medium-sized oranges (the size of an adult's hand or smaller) are usually sweeter and more juicy. Canh oranges that are too large will mostly have thick peels and not as rich in sweetness.
Cuong dai, cam nang tay
Vietnamese canh oranges grown in areas such as Hung Yen and Bac Ninh have the characteristic that the stems are very tough and durable. When buying, housewives should try checking the stems. If the stems are firm and difficult to peel by hand, it is fresh, newly picked oranges.
Pick up the orange to estimate that if the orange is delicious, it will bring a heavy, solid feeling compared to its size. Avoid choosing oranges that feel light because it is a sign that the inside of the orange has dried up.
