4. How to identify Pomelo reaches good quality

To fully enjoy the wonderful flavor of Pomelo, it is crucial to recognize ripe and delicious fruits. You should select pomelos with smooth skin, green peel, uniformly colored, fresh, clean from dust and sand, with the natural shape and color of the fruit. They should not be faded, discolored, bruised, or rot, and should not show signs of damage from insects or pests (such as spots, holes, yellowing, etc.) on the skin, allowing scars to heal due to the growth process and have appropriate maturity for use.

5. How to preserve Pomelo

Depending on the number of grapefruits and the time you want to preserve them, you can choose many different ways:

5.1 Common Storage Method for Pomelo:

Most families typically purchase around 5 – 20 fruits to consume gradually. This method will preserve the pomelos for approximately 15 – 20 days and is extremely simple:

• Place in a dry area, away from direct sunlight.
• Can be stacked on a shelf or placed in a basket.
• Line a cardboard sheet and place the pomelos on top.

Note: Never place the pomelos directly on a tile floor, as moisture will damage the contact area, causing the pomelos to rot inward. Do not put the pomelos in tightly tied plastic bags, as this will create a humid environment for bacterial growth.

5.2 For cases where you want to preserve a larger quantity of pomelos for an extended period

You can absolutely store and use them for about 3 months by following this method: place the pomelos in the refrigerator for storage at a temperature of 6-8 degrees Celsius.
