近日，“300元一斤草莓”相關(guān)詞條引起網(wǎng)友熱議。

電商平臺上，這些稀有的深色草莓被稱為“黑珍珠”“真紅美玲”或“黑美人”，價格從每斤85元到超過300元不等。

有網(wǎng)友被黑草莓的價格震驚到：竟然這么貴。還有網(wǎng)友呼吁：把價格打下來，等到新奇勁過去了就便宜了。

Social media platforms are abuzz over high strawberries prices, which can be as steep as 300 yuan per jin (around 500 grams). Marketed online as "Black Pearl", or "Dark Beauty", these rare dark-colored berries sell for 85 to over 300 yuan per jin, stunning many consumers and sparking calls for more affordable pricing once the novelty fades.

黑草莓產(chǎn)量低、花青素含量高

專家介紹，黑草莓的深色源于其富含的花青素和類黃酮，抗氧化功能突出；白草莓則擁有獨(dú)特的果香，口感清甜。黑草莓因其外觀別致、風(fēng)味獨(dú)特，但種植技術(shù)要求高、產(chǎn)量相對較低，其價格通常是普通紅草莓的數(shù)倍。

Agricultural experts attribute the deep color to high levels of anthocyanins and flavonoids, which offer antioxidant benefits. While white strawberries are prized for a unique aroma and gentle sweetness, the dark varieties stand out for their distinctive appearance and flavor profile. Their cultivation is more technically demanding and yields are lower than common red types, resulting in prices several times higher.

據(jù)報(bào)道，一位電商表示，不同的價位，水果的品質(zhì)不一樣。該電商稱，黑草莓也就是真紅美玲草莓，有A+級、A級、B級的區(qū)分，不同級別在甜度、個頭等方面有不同�！斑@個是2020年左右引入中國種植的，這兩三年才面向中國的消費(fèi)者推出。因?yàn)榉N植量不大，尤其是優(yōu)質(zhì)的A果，采購的成本很高，因此價格也比較高�！�

An online vendor explained that pricing reflects grading. "The dark strawberry is sorted into A+, A, and B grades based on sweetness, size, and other qualities," the seller said. "Introduced for cultivation in China around 2020, it only reached consumers in the past two to three years. Limited output, especially of top-grade A fruit, leads to high procurement costs and prices."

另據(jù)媒體報(bào)道，武漢的一個草莓種植園的工作人員介紹，與園內(nèi)“紅顏”等主流草莓相比，“黑草莓”僅占其總種植量的約五十分之一，純屬“試驗(yàn)田”。此品種目前是物以稀為貴，加之獨(dú)特的營銷策略，導(dǎo)致“黑草莓”價格高�！昂诓葺@個品種我們今年種得不多，只種了600多株，園內(nèi)共約3萬株草莓，主要都是紅顏等主流草莓品種。”

A Wuhan-based strawberry farm reported that dark varieties make up merely one-fiftieth of its total crop, calling the planting "experimental". Scarcity and targeted marketing keep prices elevated. "We grew only about 600 plants this year, compared to roughly 30,000 of mainstream varieties," a staff member noted.

據(jù)行業(yè)內(nèi)人士表示，相對紅草莓和白草莓系列，黑草莓的糖度更高，基本都在15度以上，能達(dá)到16-19度左右。在口感上，黑草莓果體到達(dá)9成熟的時候果味更為濃郁，香甜軟糯，產(chǎn)區(qū)主要集中在云南、丹東、四川、山東等，均為小面積種植。

Industry sources add that dark strawberries generally have higher sugar content —typically between 16 to 19 degrees Brix — compared to red and white types. At optimal ripeness, they offer a rich, sweet, and soft texture. Currently produced on a small scale in regions and provinces like Dandong (in Liaoning province), Yunnan, Sichuan and Shandong, they remain a niche product.

常見草莓種類有哪些？

面對市場上琳瑯滿目的草莓品種，除了黑草莓、白草莓，還有紅顏、奶油草莓等多種選擇，我們該如何根據(jù)口味和需求進(jìn)行挑選呢？

最常見的紅顏草莓口味酸甜，個頭大小適中，果肉稍有硬度，更適合運(yùn)輸。

紅顏草莓

奶油草莓（章姬草莓）的個頭比紅顏要大些，口感上汁多綿軟，雖不太利于運(yùn)輸，卻因酸度低且?guī)в心滔愣徊簧偃讼矚g

奶油草莓

果實(shí)和果肉呈粉白色的白雪公主草莓，個頭和紅顏接近但比奶油草莓略小，口味酸甜，且有淡淡菠蘿香味，果肉細(xì)膩、入口即化。

白雪公主草莓

隋珠草莓不僅成熟比紅顏更早，且個頭也大些，深紅發(fā)亮的外表配上甜軟多汁的口感加上耐運(yùn)輸?shù)奶攸c(diǎn)，也讓它逐漸被人們熟識。

如何挑選草莓？

掌握看、聞、嘗三原則

了解草莓常見的種類之后，我們該如何挑選和享用這份美味呢？掌握挑選的技巧，是獲得優(yōu)質(zhì)草莓的第一步。

① 看

一要看草莓顏色，有些草莓全身通紅，有些草莓屁股煞白，消費(fèi)者應(yīng)優(yōu)先選擇全身通紅、均勻的草莓。二要看果蒂，草莓果蒂是翹著的且呈鮮綠色，就是自然成熟的，果蒂發(fā)黃的是成熟度不好的。三要看草莓表面的果籽，普遍呈金黃色狀態(tài)的草莓是自然成熟的。

Choose berries with even red coloring, fresh green stems, and golden seeds. Avoid those with white patches near the stem or pale seeds.

② 聞

自然成熟的草莓聞起來有香甜撲鼻的氣味。如果草莓幾乎沒有香味或有異味，意味著它不夠新鮮或儲存不當(dāng)。

Ripe strawberries have a sweet, fragrant aroma. Little scent or an off odor may indicate poor freshness.

③ 嘗

自然熟的草莓肉質(zhì)堅(jiān)實(shí)、多汁、味道甜美，酸味不明顯。如果草莓口感綿軟或者干澀，意味著它過熟或者儲存時間過長。

Naturally ripened berries are firm, juicy, and sweet with mild acidity. A soft or dry texture often suggests over-ripeness.

挑選到心儀的草莓后，正確的清洗方式能讓您吃得更安心、更美味。

正確洗草莓 健康又美味

第一步，保留果蒂，先用流水沖洗掉表面灰塵等附著物；

第二步，用淡蘇打水、蔬果清洗劑、淡鹽水等浸泡5分鐘左右；

第三步，用流水再沖洗幾次，就可以摘掉果蒂，享用美味啦！

從稀少的“黑珍珠”到家常的“紅顏”，草莓的世界豐富而多彩，挑選到新鮮合口的那一顆，便是最清甜的美好。
