12个绝招让你挑到最好的水果蔬菜(下)>>>
Theres nothing worse than cutting into freshly-bought fruit only to find that its brown, bruised and just cant be used. Its the saddest kind of surprise. Even worse than the disappointment though, is that it puts you, the cook, in a tough predicament. Without ripe fruit you cant make that guacamole recipe -- yes, avocado is technically a fruit -- or that stone fruit cobbler. Now what?
切开刚买的水果,才发现里面已经发黄了、被撞淤了,或者直接就不能吃了。这样可真是有惊没有喜啊。比失望更遭的是,想要一展厨艺的你陷入了巧妇难为无米之炊的窘境。没有熟的水果你就做不了牛油果沙拉(对,严格来说牛油果也是一种水果)或者核桃馅饼了。那现在该怎么办呢?
Luckily, not-so-optimal produce is an easy problem to solve -- you just need to know what to look for. Some fruit lets you know theyre ripe based on color; with others, its all about touch. Here are 12 tricks to help you sort it all out.

When it comes to pineapple, look for a golden color and sweet scent.
挑菠萝要挑颜色金黄、气味香甜的。
The first sign of a pineapples ripeness is its color. It should be golden-brown, without much green color left at the base. A sweet smell also indicates this fruits ripeness. If a pineapple doesnt give off a scent, its not quite ripe yet. If it smells a tad vinegary, its overripe.
菠萝成熟的第一个标志就是颜色。成熟的菠萝应该是金褐色的,不会带有很多绿色。香甜的气味同样标志着菠萝的成熟。如果你没有闻到香味,那这个菠萝就不是很熟。如果闻起来有点酸,那它就是熟过头了。
