1. [Firm-fleshed peach]
1. [Firm-fleshed peach]
Firm-fleshed peach, also called crisp peach, is a common edible peach variety on the market. Its flesh is relatively firm, and even after ripening the flesh remains crisp, firm and dense. This kind of peach tastes quite good, but has relatively little juice.
Characteristics of firm-fleshed peach: crisp texture, sweet with little juice, resistant to transport, resistant to storage, and with a relatively long fresh-keeping time
2. [Yellow peach]
Yellow peach is also called yellow-fleshed peach, named because its flesh is yellow. This kind of peach is very rich in nutritional value, containing α-carotene, β-carotene, lycopene, lycopene and vitamin C, antioxidants such as free radical scavengers, and also pectin and dietary fiber that are very easily absorbed. Its content of trace elements such as iron, calcium, selenium and zinc is also noticeably higher than that of other fruits. In terms of nutritional value, it truly deserves to be called the king of fruits. The flesh of this kind of peach is generally relatively soft, and compared with other peaches it has a slightly tart taste.
3. [Honey peach]
Honey peach is relatively large among peach varieties! A ripe honey peach weighs about 200 grams each, and the larger ones can even exceed 300 grams. When this kind of peach has just ripened, the flesh is slightly firm, but as time goes on the flesh becomes softer and softer. In terms of taste, the flesh is relatively delicate, but it does not have as much substance as yellow peach. It has a large juice content, and its sweetness is also very good. Another very notable characteristic of this kind of peach is that the skin is extremely thin, so thin that it can even be pulled off, and the taste is very good.
4. [Nectarine]
The reason nectarine is called nectarine is precisely because of its smooth surface, which looks as if it has been coated with a layer of oil, with bright color and a smooth, glossy shine. The difference between this kind of peach and other peaches is that nectarines have no fuzz, so there is no such thing as peach fuzz allergy, and moreover many people are born disliking peaches with fuzz, so nectarines are more popular and are eaten by relatively more people. In terms of taste, nectarines also have a relatively high sugar content, with delicate and crisp flesh, combining fragrance, sweetness and crispness all at once. In terms of storage, some nectarine varieties have firm, crisp fruit after ripening and are extremely resistant to long-distance transport. The storage and transport tolerance of nectarines greatly exceeds that of honey peaches. The most crucial point, and also the one that most comforts food lovers, is that nectarines ripen earlier and come onto the market before other peaches. For food lovers who have hardly been able to buy peaches for a year, how could they miss this chance to get an early taste?
Characteristics of nectarine: no fuzz, edible by people allergic to peach fuzz; sweet, fragrant and crisp in taste; relatively firm flesh, extremely resistant to long-distance transport and resistant to storage.
5. [Flat peach]
That's right, what you see is the immortal peach that appears most frequently in Chinese mythology. This fruit is one of the relatively precious fruits. It has a unique appearance and a flat, round shape, with a small hollow formed by an indentation at the top. Its skin is dark yellow, with a patch of red blush at the top. Its flesh is fine, its skin is tough and easy to peel, it is juicy and sweet, and its flavor is rich and fragrant. It truly deserves to be called an “immortal peach.” Flat peach is also famous at home and abroad for its beautiful appearance and its melt-in-the-mouth qualities. In terms of nutritional value, flat peach is similar to mortal peaches, and does not have legendary effects such as granting immortality or immediate ascension to immortality……
