Fruits for all
Every day we should eat at least a couple of fruit portions. That, along with three other portions of vegetables, form the basis of the Mediterranean diet, the healthiest in the world. However, we often complain that the fruit tastes like nothing, and that may be because we are not eating it at its right point of ripeness.
For traditional fruits, such as apples or oranges, the experience of generations already tells us when it is time to consume them. For tropical fruits, some of which are still exceptional in supermarkets, the criteria are not so clear. And even for some non-tropical fruits, given their short life, knowing when they are ripe is not so simple: for example, the color of strawberries has to be bright red and bright. If they smell too much, they’re starting to overdo it.
Passion Fruit
The colour can vary between an intense red, almost violet, and yellow, but if it has green tones, it is not yet ripe. In addition, when the fruit is in its point, the skin will be somewhat wrinkled.
