How to choose and store tangerines
 

Mandarin is a favorite winter delicacy with which winter itself is associated. Now on the shelves of stores there is a huge selection of these fruits and, in order not to be mistaken when choosing, you need to know some facts:

1. First of all, pay attention to the peel of the tangerines: the color should be the same and rich, the fruit should be elastic, and when pressed, sprinkle with juice.

2. Mandarins from Morocco are very sweet, with a thin skin, easy to peel and seedless.

3. Turkish fruits with sourness, thin but poorly peeled peel, small, have a yellow-green color and a porous peel, they have a lot of seeds.

 

4. Spanish tangerines are very sweet and juicy, there are almost no seeds in them, thick but easily peeled peel.

5. Mineola is a hybrid of grapefruit and tangerine. In shape, such tangerines are slightly similar to a pear, have a bright orange color with redness, they are sweet and juicy.

6. Clementine is a hybrid of mandarin and orange peel. They are very juicy, sweet, small in size and bright orange in color, and have a long shelf life.

7. To keep the tangerines well and not spoil, keep them in the refrigerator, but without a plastic bag – they must “breathe”.
