Basic Introduction of Guangfeng Majia Pomelo

Guangfeng Majia Pomelo is a variety of red heart pomelo with an umbrella shaped or semi-circular crown. It blooms in mid to late April each year, with a solitary or racemic inflorescence, large flower buds, and white petals. The fruit matures in mid to late October and is pear shaped or high flattened round. The variety was recognized by the Jiangxi Provincial Crop Variety Approval Committee in December 2009 and is a high-quality fruit tree discovered only in the mid-1980s in Guangfeng County, Jiangxi Province. Majia pomelo is one of the eight major pomelo varieties in China

What are the nutritional values of Guangfeng Majia pomelo

1. Rich in protein, carbohydrates, organic acids, vitamin A, B1, B2, C, P, and nutrients such as calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and sodium. Among them, grapefruit meat contains 57 milligrams of vitamin C per 100 grams, which is 10 times higher than pears, and 519 milligrams of calcium, greatly exceeding other fruits<2. Pomelo contains physiologically active substances such as naringin and hesperidin, which can reduce the viscosity of blood circulation and decrease the formation of blood clots

The fruit is pear shaped, with a yellow green skin, full oil cells, a skin thickness of about 50px to 75px, light red flesh, crispy and tender flesh, moderate sour and sweet taste, refreshing taste, and storage resistance

1. When selecting pomelos, the first thing to do is to master the general principle of "no topper". The standard shape of pomelos is pointed at the top and wide at the bottom, and it is better to choose pomelos that are flat, round, and have a short neck (preferably flat at the bottom). This is because pomelos with long necks have less flesh and appear to have more skin

2. High quality pomelos can also be selected from aspects such as visual inspection, specific gravity, and hand feel. If the grapefruit peel is fine and clean, the surface oil cells are semi transparent, and the color appears light yellow or orange yellow, it indicates that the grapefruit has high maturity, juicy and sweet taste. For pomelos of the same size, choose those with heavier portions. When pressing hard, if it is not easy to press, it indicates that the bag is tight and of good quality. Note that if the individual is large and the weight is light, the skin will be thick and the meat will be less, resulting in a bad taste
