Second, how to choose good and bad peppers?
1, smell the fragrance.
Grab a handful of pepper and hold it for a while. Peppers that can smell the fragrance indicate that they are good peppers, and peppers without any fragrance are probably soaked.
2. Look at the "pimples" on the surface of pepper fruit
The source of prickly ash hemp flavor is prickly ash hemp, which mainly exists in bumps (small bumps) on the surface of prickly ash fruit.
Generally speaking, Zanthoxylum bungeanum with large surface bulge, large quantity, high density and fullness has a strong taste and heavy hemp flavor.
3. Try to feel it
Good quality peppers will have a "rustling" sound when stirred, and will be broken when twisted, feeling rough and dry, while poor quality peppers will not be fragile.
Squeeze pepper granules with wet hands. If your fingers are red or sticky, it means that Chili contains dyes or other additives.
4. Look at this color
Zanthoxylum bungeanum which is too oily and red may contain additives. It is recommended not to buy it.
