How to choose delicious fresh red dragon fruit
- Observe the shape: If the dragon fruit has a large round shape, smooth and shiny skin, then it is fresh and ripe fruit, you should choose it!
Observe the skin of the fruit: Most delicious dragon fruits usually have uniformly colored skins, vibrant, not damaged or bruised. For red dragon fruit, prioritize those with deep red color and shiny skin. Do not buy overly soft fruits as they are prone to being crushed during transport.
Observe the ears on the fruit: Dragon fruit with fresh green ears and stems is a sign of recently harvested fruit. Typically, at this time, the stem and ears are soft and can be easily bent. On the contrary, if the stem and ears of the dragon fruit are brittle, seem dry, with dark tips that are prone to breakage, it indicates that the fruit is not good or overripe.

How to choose fresh and delicious mangosteen
- Should choose the right size: Prioritize selecting mangosteen that is medium-sized, slightly larger than a ping pong ball, as this means the seeds will not be large and the flesh will be plentiful. Avoid buying larger fruits as they often have thick skin and small segments. Additionally, baby mangosteen is also a good choice as the segments are usually small and seedless.
Observe the shape of the fruit: The characteristic of ripe mangosteen is its natural dark red color, without bruises or hard spots. Furthermore, when you squeeze the surface of the fruit, you will feel it is soft and evenly firm.
Count the segments at the bottom of the fruit: At the bottom of each mangosteen, there is always a brown star, with each point corresponding to the number of segments that the mangosteen has. Therefore, you should choose fruits with as many flower petals as possible!
