How to choose fresh and delicious meat
- You should choose pieces of pork that have uniform muscle fibers, a firm texture, are not slimy, have a pink color, and high elasticity; when pressed, the meat should not leave an indentation.
- Good pork will have a distinctive aroma, which is not unpleasant and does not have a fishy smell.
- You should not choose pieces of meat that are too dark or too pale, have a rotten smell, or are mushy inside. Pork that has been water-injected will have a pale color, and the cutting surface will leak a lot of water; it’s best not to buy it.
- When buying meat, if you see that the fat is yellow, you should avoid purchasing it as it could indicate that the pig has a pigmentation disease, is a sick pig, or has been infected with parasites,…
