How to choose pork belly

2. Elasticity: If you press it slightly with your hands, good pork belly will have good elasticity and the surface of the pork skin will be fine and will not be too dry or oily.

3. Bright red color: Fresh pork belly should normally be bright red. If the color is abnormal, do not buy it.

4. Bright color: Bright color means the pork belly is fresh, too dark color means it is not fresh, and too bright color means it has been artificially processed.

Tips for making pork belly

1. Pork should not be soaked in water for a long time; when cutting fat meat, you can first dip the fat meat in cold water, then put it on the chopping board and cut it while cutting. Sprinkle some cold water to save effort when cutting, the fat will not slip and will not stick to the chopping board.

2. Do not wash pork with hot water before cooking, because pork contains a myosin substance that is easily soluble in water above 15 degrees Celsius. If soaked in hot water, a lot of nutrients will be lost. The taste is also not good.

3. Pork should be cooked, because sometimes there are parasites in pork. If it is eaten raw or is not fully prepared, hook tapeworms may be parasitic in the liver or brain.
