How to choose fresh and delicious quail
- Good quail usually has a light pink skin that is slightly shiny, with no foul smell or abnormal signs such as darkened skin or prominent blood vessels.
- You should buy quail at markets, reputable quail farms, or trustworthy e-commerce sites.
- Avoid selecting quail with a foul smell, sliminess, non-elastic meat, mushy texture, or pale green to dark discoloration. This may indicate sick quail or quail that has been slaughtered for a long time.
