Oysters are one of the seafood that many families love when cooking a variety of dishes thanks to their unique flavor and high nutritional value.
Accordingly, housewives need to consider choosing shell-shelled oysters to ensure freshness and quality of family dishes.
Oster meat color
When choosing to buy, housewives should pay attention to the color of oyster meat. If the oysters are fresh and delicious, they will be white or slightly cream-yellow, looking plump and plump. The oyster meat surface has a natural shiny appearance, not dry or mushy. Another thing to note is that the meatline (also known as the rank) must be gray or light black, firm and not broken.
Avoid unusually colored oysters such as green ones (it could be egg oysters, if eaten, it will be bitter) or have strange layers on the skin, because this can be a sign that oysters have been soaked in water for too long, reducing the quality and natural sweetness.
Oster milk juice
Fresh shelled oysters are often soaked in their own natural milk water. This water should be clear, but if the water is cloudy, strange or oily, it is a sign that the oysters are no longer fresh and may have begun to decompose.
A moderate amount of milk water, enough to keep the oyster meat moist, will be a delicious fresh ingredient to ensure a variety of dishes.
The flavor of oysters
One of the most accurate ways to choose fresh oysters is based on taste. Fresh oysters will have a salty taste of the sea. Absolutely do not choose oysters with strange, foul flavors...
The unusual flavor of oysters will demonstrate the quality and safety of the ingredients.
Check how to preserve oysters
For pre-packaged shellfish, it is necessary to carefully check the information about the packaging date, expiration date and origin on the packaging. Priority should be given to products that are carefully vacuum-packed, stored in a specialized refrigerator at low and stable temperatures.
Avoid buying oysters sold at regular temperatures or in unsanitary appliances.SEO:
