How to identify the quality of passion fruit and how to preserve it for a longer time

1. Identification Method

1. Appearance: When buying passion fruit, choose those with smooth skin without wrinkles, and those with purple or dark red color, and they should also be of uniform size. Some passion fruits look wrinkled and soft. They are not very fresh, so it is not recommended to choose them.

2. Smell: You can also identify the quality of passion fruit by smelling the skin. If it is fresh, it will smell sweet and have no other unpleasant smell. If it has gone bad, it will taste very sour or have no taste at all.

3. Cut it open and look: Although this method is not suitable for use when purchasing, it can also be used to distinguish good from bad. If you cut it open with a knife and the flesh sinks to the bottom and smells like alcohol, it's gone bad.

3. How to store it longer

1. If you want to preserve passion fruit better, you can put it in a relatively cool and well-ventilated place so that it will not go bad easily. Generally, it can be stored for a week. Or you can wrap it with plastic wrap and refrigerate it in the refrigerator. It can be kept for about half a month.

2. Another way is to simply process it and put its juice in a popsicle mold. This way it can be stored for a year, which is quite a long time.
