How to choose fresh and delicious goat meat/ goat ribs
- You should choose young goat meat to reduce the strong goat smell. Young goat meat has a pinkish-red color, tender and firm texture, elastic, and does not stick to your hands, with no strange odor.
- Goat meat that has been kept for too long or from sick goats will have a strange smell, mushy texture, slimy, and a pale green color; you should not buy it.
- When purchasing, ask the seller to cut the goat meat in half and smell it; goat meat will have a distinct, strong smell that hits your nose directly.
- Use your fingernail to press the goat skin; if the skin punctures, it is young goat, if the skin is thick and does not puncture, it is an old goat, which will be very chewy.
- For goat ribs: you should choose the type that has both bone and meat so that the meat does not fall apart during cooking but still retains good flavor; typically, these rib pieces have flat and small bones.
How to clean goat meat without odor
- Use a mixture of white wine and crushed ginger on the goat meat and massage it well. Then rinse thoroughly with diluted salt water.
- You can also use vinegar and clean water to wash the goat meat, which will significantly reduce the unpleasant smell.
