What fruit is one of the native fruits in China?

Litchi is one of the native fruits in China.

Litchi, a small and exquisite fruit, is not only attractive in appearance, but also delicious in taste. It is one of the traditional native fruits in China with a long history and rich cultural connotation. In Guangdong, Fujian and other places in southern China, litchi is known as the "king of fruit" and is deeply loved by people.

Litchi likes warm and humid climate, and the south of China is the most suitable place for this climate. As early as ancient times, our ancestors began to plant and eat litchi. According to historical records, as early as the Han Dynasty more than 2,000 years ago, litchi has become a treasure of court nobles. It can be seen that the historical position and cultural value of litchi in China can not be ignored.

Selection skills of litchi

1, look at the color

Litchi is rarely completely bright red, and all lychees are more or less mottled. The peel of fresh litchi is likely to be red in white, red in green, or red in light red, which is normal. Litchi like this is relatively fresh. However, it should be noted that if you see black or brown parts on the peel color of litchi, it means that this litchi has gone bad, so don't buy such litchi.

Step 2 touch your hand

We can also gently press and pinch litchi with our hands to see if it is elastic. Generally speaking, if it is a little soft but elastic, it should be a relatively mature litchi. But if it feels soft and inelastic, it means that litchi is ripe or rotten. Therefore, when choosing litchi, try to choose those that are slightly harder and more elastic.
