Seek the identification method of Lycium barbarum

Look at the first picture first. The surface color of Lycium barbarum is dark red, which accords with the color of pure natural Lycium barbarum. However, careful identification shows that this dark red is a thin layer of pink outside the dark, so when the weather is wet, Lycium barbarum can't dry and it begins to get dark, sodium nitrite should be added for treatment. This medlar should be sticky in your hand. Hold it in your hand and squeeze it hard. It is easier to agglomerate. You can try.

Looking at the second picture, I feel that the wolfberry is wet by water, which fully proves that the wolfberry itself is not very dry. Because Lycium barbarum contains carotene, it will be colored and light orange when it meets water. But your wolfberry will have such a heavy color just by holding the paper towel in your hand for a while, which only shows that it is definitely not a natural wolfberry. As for whether it was smoked with sulfur, it doesn't look like it. In my impression, Chinese wolfberry smoked with sulfur is dry and hard. You can hold Lycium barbarum in your hand for a while and then let it go and smell it on your hand. Is it pungent? If it is pungent, it means it is smoked with sulfur.

Judging from your overall medlar, it is very big and the meat is thicker. If it is Ningxia Lycium barbarum, I personally think the price is at least 100 yuan per catty, and Ningxia Lycium barbarum is rarely so big. Look carefully again, there is no obvious white spot on the pedicel, so it should not be Ningxia Lycium barbarum. If the price of this Lycium barbarum is around 50 yuan, it must be Qinghai Lycium barbarum. Personally, I think it should be 80% Qinghai wolfberry.

Give an experience suggestion. Buying Ningxia Lycium barbarum online has a good brand and a big enterprise. The quality of Lycium barbarum is guaranteed, but the price is more expensive. In addition, a friend introduced a shop where farmers in their village sold directly. It seems that the name of the store is Peasant Red or Peasant Poinsettia. I deliberately forgot that Lycium barbarum is quite natural. In addition, don't eat too much medlar and get angry.

I hope it helps you.
