Brilliant Fruit Hacks：吃水果不再麻煩！7個輕鬆處理水果的小祕訣

美國國家衛生院研究指出，每日吃 5 份蔬果，比起平均吃不到 2 份的人，得癌症的機率少一半。水果對於人體健康的效益就不用多說了！如果你也很想實踐多吃水果這件事，但又懶惰切洗水果這些步驟，這回你有囉！參考以下幾種水果保鮮及簡易切片小秘訣，讓吃水果也可以輕鬆又健康！

Apple

每次切開蘋果就容易氧化變成咖啡色嗎？試試運用橡皮筋將蘋果綁起來，不過這大概適用於沒時間切水果的人。將蘋果預先切好後，再將其用橡皮筋綁回原本的模樣，就可以防止蘋果氧化哦！

Once you've sliced the apple, put a rubber band around it to hold the apple together. It'll keep the apple from oxidizing, AKA turning that dingy brown color.

Strawberry

這招相當適合在派對餐點上使用！將可愛的吸管像串烤肉一樣穿過草莓，草莓蒂頭就會輕鬆彈出。

It's no opening Champagne with a saber, but hulling a strawberry with a straw makes for a pretty decent party trick: Slide it through the berry like you would skewer a kebab, and the stem pops right off.

Kiwi

這個小秘訣應該很多人都知道！先將奇異果的底部切除，接著拿起湯匙順著果皮滑動，那麼果肉就會完整的與果皮分離喔！

Slice off the ends of the kiwi, then slide a spoon just under the skin. Move the spoon all the way around the kiwi, and the flesh will come out cleanly.

Banana

大家都知道將香蕉放入紙袋中，可以加速香蕉成熟。但大家知道如何放慢香蕉過熟的速度嗎？如果你還沒時間吃它，又不想吃到太過軟爛的香蕉，利用保鮮膜緊緊包覆香蕉的蒂頭，可以延長3-5天的時間喔！

You know you can brown bananas faster by placing them in a paper bag (a moment, please, for the wonder that is banana bread), but did you know you can slow down the browning process by wrapping the stems in plastic wrap? It can make them last 3-5 days longer, according to LifeHacker.

Orange

學學如何在幾秒鐘內就將柳橙切片！首先切掉頂部和底部，接著將刀鋒對準柳橙中心的白點往下切，柳橙就會像卷軸一般，漂亮的片片分離喔！

It doesn't get easier than this: Lop off the top and bottom of the orange. Align the tip of the knife with the white center of the orange, and slice all the way down (as shown in the photo). Open up the orange as if you're unraveling a roll-up makeup case, revealing each ready-to-eat orange segment.

Cherry

運用做甜點時會用到的花嘴，朝櫻桃根蒂朝下用力壓，核就會跑出來，建議選擇小而尖的花嘴。

Just remove the stem, then stick a star tip through the top—the serrated edge of the star tip cuts through the fruit easier—and the pit will pop out of the bottom of the cherry. You could also use a sturdy straw or paper clip.

Mango

夏天吃芒果最怕弄得臉上、雙手黏踢踢的，這招一定要學起來！將芒果切片（避開果核），利用玻璃杯緣就可以輕鬆將果肉與果皮分離喔！（同樣的方式也可以套用在奇異果上）

As proven in Hack or Wack, you really can take a mango cheek and scoop out the flesh using a drinking glass. It takes a little shimmying to use the lip of the glass to carve into the mango's flesh, but once you get going, it scoops out easily.
