How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh deer meat
- To buy real deer meat, you should choose pieces that have the same color both inside and outside the meat. Additionally, deer meat is smoother than beef, so you can rely on these two characteristics to distinguish real deer meat from fake.
- When buying deer meat, you should purchase it at supermarkets or order meat from reputable stores to avoid the situation of “hanging a goat’s head to sell dog meat.”
- You should not buy cheap deer meat with unclear origins, that has turned brown-black and has an unpleasant odor or is slimy. Because this meat may be in the process of decomposition, it will not taste good and you cannot clearly know the original source of the meat.
What is perilla leaf?
- Perilla leaf is an herbaceous plant commonly grown everywhere, extending from India to countries in Southeast Asia, and is often used for various purposes, mainly as a seasoning herb and for medicinal purposes.
- Some uses of this plant include: helping to treat urticaria, allergies, supporting skin beauty, anti-inflammatory, healing ulcers, and reducing excess acid in the stomach.
- However, you should not use perilla leaves when you have diarrhea and avoid overusing perilla in health support and beauty enhancement. Because too much of anything is not good, you should use it selectively!
