How to judge whether Custard Apple is ripe

1. Judgment method

1. Look at the color: If the surface is bright green, it proves that it is a raw fruit and is not ripe. If the surface is green with yellow edges, or the top is cracked and the skin has turned black, it means the fruit is ripe.

2. Feel it: Press it gently with your hand. If it feels hard, it means it is not ripe. If it is a little soft and sugar comes out when you press it lightly, it means it is fully cooked and can be eaten directly.

2. Ripening Methods

If the fruit is hard when you buy it, you can wrap it in newspaper, spray some water on it, and after about 1 to 2 days, the fruit will become soft. After that, you can just use a knife to cut it open and eat it. Most people can eat it.

3. Note

1. If the fruit is ripe, you can put it in the refrigerator to refrigerate it to extend its shelf life. But if the fruit is not fully ripe, it cannot be placed in the refrigerator, otherwise it will not ripen on its own.

2. Although eating it has many benefits, be careful not to eat it in excess. Eating too much can easily lead to getting a sore throat.
