It is best to have white frost on the surface. This kind of pumpkin has just been picked and has a longer storage time. Pick the cut pumpkin: pinch it with your hands: the harder the better, the older ones that can’t be pinched are older and thinner; look at the cut surface: the flesh is orange and thick in color, and the carotene content is higher. Do not buy if there are damages, insect damage or spots on the surface; it is relatively light in weight and the skin is easily pinched and is not mature enough, so it is not suitable to buy. Pumpkins with dull and rough surfaces are older and have a sweeter texture. Tender pumpkins have more water and thin and crispy flesh. It is recommended to choose according to your personal taste.
