You can buy mutton now whether you go to the wet market or supermarket, but do you know that mutton is divided into goat meat and sheep meat? There must be many people who don’t pay attention to this problem when buying mutton, so the mutton they buy always tastes unsatisfactory. Today I am here to solve this problem with you. After reading this, you will never buy the wrong mutton again. .

First of all, there are certain differences between the two kinds of mutton in terms of taste. Sheep meat is more delicious than goat meat. Goat meat has a stronger smell, and the fiber of goat meat is thicker and longer. The texture is a little bit woody, so goat meat is more suitable for stir-frying or stewing, and it is also very good for grilling. The meat of sheep is delicate and is more suitable for making dumpling fillings. It is even better to eat sheep meat when shabu-shabu.

There are also certain differences in the cold and hot properties of sheep meat and goat meat. Goat meat is cooler and is more suitable for people who are obese and suffer from internal heat. Sheep meat is hot in nature and is more suitable for nourishing. It is more suitable for maternal patients or people with cold body. Many people drink mutton soup when they get angry, but some people feel relieved after drinking it. However, some people get worse. This is because the mutton used in the mutton soup is sheep meat instead of cold goat meat.

The two kinds of mutton are also nutritionally different. Sheep meat has a higher fat content than goat meat, so sheep meat tastes delicate and delicious, while goat meat has a tighter texture and a lower cholesterol content. Slightly lower, for those with high age and the elderly, it is more suitable to eat goat meat. When buying mutton, you can press it with your hands. The softer meat is sheep meat. If you can't press it with your hands and it feels firm to the touch, it is goat meat.
