I'll have to try the bottom. I find that often the top has some extra skip and space which makes the peeling easier. American often feel bananas from the stem as well though many other countries feel from the bottom.
@@BiancoLand_ Most asian stuff is usually done by squeezing gently from the side to open or the stem if you want but it's harder ie lychee, longan, mangosteen, rambutan, passionfruit => examples of peeling from the bottom: any asian oranges, durian ( stick a knife and it'll open ), pomelo ( a bigger, better and sweeter version of grapefruit ). => Obviously, the much harder fruits is used by a knife & uses the method of overall profile to tell the ripeness. Why? Peeling from the bottom, usually indicates how ripe it is. More space = more ripe = less fruit = more concentrated juices. However, if the skin is shriveled up ie dried up or too much give => It's gone bad but if it's slightly shriveled up or have a slight give => it's the best. => Squeezing from the side and you tell from ripeness from the overall profile or the stem. For example: If the mangosteen stem ain't green. It ain't fresh. If it ain't breaking apart by squeezing, well it's unripe; don't eat or else very icky texture. Just wait until it's squeezable.
nice review! sounds like a winner
You peel from the bottom, not the stem. 🤣🤣😂😂😂😂

May be called something different in US but here in Aus that's a mandarin.
It is a type of mandarin. It is a cross between a Changsha tangerine and a Satsuma.
