What is a green plum? How to choose fresh and quality black plums
- The green plum has many different names depending on the region such as: thanh quả, gián quả, cà na,… There are two main types: white plum and black plum. The plum is oval-shaped, about 3 cm long.
- You should choose black plums that are uniform in size, tapered at both ends, and when you gently squeeze them, they should feel firm and have a natural white powdery coating on the outside, which indicates they will be tastier and more nutritious when processed.
- Avoid choosing plums that show signs of scratches, have wrinkled skins, and are no longer shiny and smooth, as these may be old and not fresh.
