Hotpot is a familiar side dish when eating porridge, pho or vermicelli of Vietnamese families. However, to choose delicious, crispy golden hotpots as well as ensure food safety when eating.
A few ways to recognize to help housewives choose delicious, crispy, clean and quality-assured hot dogs.
Color
Color will be one of the ways to recognize the quality of crispy hot pot. A delicious and clean hot pot is usually bright yellow and even. If the hot pot is dark yellow, brown or has small black spots, it is a sign that the oil has been reused too many times.
Old oil not only loses the natural flavor of wheat flour but also contains many substances harmful to health. This is a characteristic that housewives need to pay attention to when choosing to buy clean firecrackers, ensuring health safety.
Fragrance
Standard hotcakes must be crispy but still retain a slight chewiness inside. When cracked in half, the hotcake body often has large air holes and thin cake walls. If the hotcakes are too hard or too soft, it is very likely due to the wrong ratio of flour mixing or the cake has been left for too long.
Be wary of cakes that are too porous and light because baking soda can be abused. Clean cakes are usually relatively heavy and provide a firm grip.
Flavor and aroma
Clean hot dogs when freshly fried will have a natural aroma of wheat flour and eggs. Conversely, poor quality hot dogs often have a burning oil smell or a pungent smell.
When eating, if you feel a slight astringent taste at the tip of the tongue or a bitter aftertaste, you should remove it. Delicious sticky rice brings a slight sweetness of starch and a natural fatty feeling.
Oil permeability
When choosing to buy a hot pot, you should observe the oil layer on the surface. Clean hot pots that are fried at standard temperature usually have a dry surface and are not greasy. If there are shiny hot pots with a lot of grease, they are usually old or the frying temperature is not enough.
Consuming too much of this type of hot pot will cause the body to consume bad fats, causing bloating and indigestion, which will greatly affect health later.
