How to choose fresh and delicious chicken breast
- To select a good chicken breast, choose a piece with white skin as this indicates the chicken is mature and the meat will be firmer and tastier. When pressing your hand into the meat, it should be elastic, not soft and mushy.
- You should avoid choosing chicken breasts with many white stripes; the more stripes there are, the less fat and protein it contains, making it harder for the meat to absorb spices during cooking.
How to clean chicken breast to remove the fishy smell
- After rubbing with salt, you can use a mixture of alcohol and sliced, crushed ginger to rub and massage the entire chicken breast once more to help eliminate the fishy smell and dirt. Rinse thoroughly and let it drain.
- Additionally, you can add lemon to water and soak the chicken breast for 15 – 20 minutes. Then, remove it, rinse with cold water, and let it drain.
Tips for using leftover cooking oil
- Cooking oil should be stored in clean plastic or glass containers, and you should never pour it back into the bottle of oil you are currently using.
- Let the cooking oil cool completely. Place a strainer over a glass bowl. You can also line it with a paper towel to ensure no residue remains, helping to clean the oil and make it safer for the next use.
- Wait for the oil to filter clean; if you are meticulous, you can filter it multiple times before pouring the oil into a jar, sealing it tightly, and placing it in a cool place for future frying.
