How to Choose Fresh and Delicious Beef
- To choose good beef, you should observe the color of the meat. Fresh and good beef usually has a bright red color, not dark red, and the fat should be light yellow.
- Choose small and tender pieces of meat, with fine fibers, and when you press your finger into it, it should bounce back well.
- If you see small white spots on the meat that are easily detachable, it could be a sign of parasites. You should also avoid pre-cut small pieces of meat, as they often contain parasites.
- You can ask the store to grind the meat for you or grind it at home using a meat grinder!
