How to choose good quality pig intestines
- Good pig intestines are those pieces with small intestines, thick surface, and a pinkish-white color.
- Choose to buy when squeezing them and a milky white fluid is released, indicating they are freshly slaughtered and still fresh.
- It is advisable to buy intestines that still have elasticity when pressed by hand, and there is no strange smell when sniffed.
- Do not buy pig intestines with large tubes, and the outer skin turning a bluish-white color, as these are old and will taste bitter and not good.
- Do not choose pieces of intestines that have dark fluid inside, have a strange smell, or are slimy.
How to choose delicious turmeric
- You should choose turmeric rhizomes that have a bright yellow color or, for red turmeric, a deep orange-red color, with the characteristic smell of turmeric.
- Choose turmeric rhizomes with thin skin, few wrinkles, and a firm feel when pressed.
- Avoid choosing turmeric that has many small offshoots, as it will be very difficult for you to prepare.
- In particular, do not choose turmeric that shows signs of being soft and mushy, with a foul smell, as this may indicate that the turmeric has been stored for too long and is about to spoil.
How to clean pig intestines thoroughly, without odor
- Method 1: Use white alcohol inside the pig intestines and gently squeeze to remove all the impurities inside. Rinse with clean water and vigorously massage the intestines with 2 tablespoons of salt and the juice of 1-2 lemons, massage for about 5 minutes, then rinse with water, and let drain before cooking.
- Method 2: Rinse the pig intestines briefly with water, cut them into short sections for easier preparation. Turn the intestines inside out, remove the impurities inside, and use flour to massage the intestines for about 5-10 minutes, then rinse with clean water.
How to remove turmeric stains from hands
- You can cut a few slices of lemon to rub on the area stained with turmeric, then rinse with warm water to help clean your hands of the turmeric stain.
- Using cotton soaked in fresh milk and applying it evenly on the turmeric-stained area will also help remove the stain easily.
