Smell and touch: how to choose a ripe pineapple in the store - never make a mistake again
Pineapples are exotic fruits that are brought to us from far away.
This means that they are most often picked unripe so that they do not get lost during long transportation.
Let's figure out how to choose a ripe fruit no matter what.
How to choose the right pineapple
The right choice of exotic fruit consists of several aspects that are important to consider.
A ripe pineapple should have a subtle aroma. If the fruit doesn't smell, it may still be green.
The second factor by which the ripeness of an exotic product is determined is sound. Unlike a watermelon, a dull sound will be an indicator of ripeness.
The ripeness of the pineapple is also determined by the appearance of the peel. It should be yellow, since a green tint indicates immaturity, and brown indicates overripeness of the product.
One of the most obvious indicators of ripeness is the firmness of the fruit. When you press the side of a perfect pineapple, its skin will return to its original shape. If the fruit is overripe, the dent will remain, and if it is unripe, you won't be able to press it.
