Carambola is a kind of tropical fruit, generally growing in the south, which is rare in the north. Because the temperature and other conditions are not suitable, it is generally difficult to survive in the north. It tastes like a grape, with a little sweetness in the acid, unique taste, and more juice in it. Some people also say that it tastes like cucumber, but it's richer than cucumber. If you look at the shape, it's like a pentagram
1. Appearance: when carambola ripens gradually, there will be a little dark red in the yellow color, so the maturity is just right, and the taste is the best. Take a look at the shape, try to choose the one with correct shape, so the quality will be better. Still can feel peel, want to choose as far as possible smooth without crack..
2. Hardness: you can also feel the hardness by hand. If you feel soft, you'd better not choose. Try to choose a hard skin, which is better
3. Weight: weigh it by hand, which means there is more juice and it will be better to eat. If it is lighter, it means that it has been stored for a long time, and the taste may not be very good
