before cleaning
The Council of Agriculture shared on Facebook that after buying grapes, wrap them in paper and store them in the refrigerator for a while. Do not use plastic bags, as this will cause frost on the surface of the grapes, causing fruit cracking and rot. Consumers will notice that there are often white dirty things on the freshly bought grapes, and they must be washed before eating (especially juiced). Grape fruit powder is a protective film of grapes, the thicker the better.
cleaning
Remove the rotten grape berries first, and use scissors to cut carefully at the junction of the grape pedicle and the fruit. Do not cut the fruit skin, as it is easy to contaminate the pulp when washing after breaking the skin, and do not leave a small fruit stalk, as grapes with small fruit stalks are not easy to wash, and are easy to stab other grapes. After cutting the stems, you can see that the junction with the grapes is smooth and complete. Rinse gently with water and serve.
after cleaning
After draining the water slightly, put it on a plate and enjoy it. It tastes better after being chilled.
in addition. Wash the grapes when they are ready to be eaten, because they are easy to spoil if they are not eaten after washing. After washing, even if it is kept in the refrigerator, it can only be stored for 2 or 3 days. If you want to refrigerate, it is recommended to store at -0.5~0°C, and it can be stored for about 2-8 weeks.

Grape pulp helps digestion, detoxifies and replenishes blood

Fruit acids containing tartaric acid and malic acid can help digestion, and pectin and tannic acid can detoxify. Grape pulp can also be brewed into wine, sun-dried into raisins, and made into fruit juice. Raisins and grape juice are rich in sugar, high in calories and rich in iron. They have the effect of nourishing blood, especially for women before and after childbirth. In addition, grape pulp also contains a lot of glucose, which is an indispensable nutrient for the human body. According to experts, fresh grapes, after being bagged for a suitable period, have a very uniform powder, no residual drug spots, uniform fruit size and color, and those with purple and black color are high-quality and safe fruits.
