1, soak in salt water: Wash the loofah before peeling it, peel it and cut it, then soak it in clean salt water, take it out and drain it before frying, which will also effectively prevent the loofah from turning black.

2. The cut loofah can be blanched for a while, about 1-2 minutes. When blanching, put some oil and sugar in the water to keep the loofah from turning black.

Matters needing attention in loofah selection

1 Look at the color of the loofah: the ripe loofah will appear dark green or dark green. The darker the color, the more mature it is, and the harder the silk in the loofah will be. The tender green loofah is more suitable for cooking or soup.

2. Look at the shape of the loofah: A good loofah is usually long and straight as a whole, so the water content of this loofah is also relatively large, and the thick and short loofah has less water content.

3, by hand: when buying a loofah, you need to pinch the surface of the loofah by hand. The hand feel of the loofah is very strong, which means that the loofah is fresh, and it has a soft hand feel for too long.
