6 ways to identify a good orange

Vans full of oranges are seen on the streets. The market is also flooded with this beneficial fruit rich in vitamin C and antioxidants. Various varieties of oranges are seen in this winter season. However, many times, after buying an orange, tempted by its color, it turns out that it is not sweet at all and has less juice. If you do not want to be cheated when buying oranges, it is important to know some tips. The tips are given by American food blogger Jacqueline Weiss.
- When buying oranges, don't just look at the color. Sometimes, even if the peel is bright in color, the orange is not sweet to eat. On the other hand, oranges with green peel can also be sweet.
- Before buying an orange, check its weight. A heavier orange is juicier.
- Scratch the orange peel slightly and then smell it. If the aroma is fresh, it is a good orange.
- Avoid oranges with thick peels. Choose oranges with thin peels.
- Oranges may have blemishes on their skin. Small scratches or marks on the skin are called 'wind scarring', which is caused by wind rubbing against tree branches. However, if there are holes in the peel, don't buy it.
- If any part of the orange is excessively soft, discard it.
