Matters needing attention in selecting razor clam:
Excessive "puffiness" of razor clams and scallops is very easy to identify. If it is swollen to a certain extent, poke it with your hand, it will not retract quickly, and even the shell can't be closed. Shrimp and crab will also cause joint swelling due to water absorption, and they will move slowly and appear to lack vitality. However, if the water absorption is not much, it is not easy to identify, mainly depending on how dark the vendor's heart is.
In addition, it should be reminded that the most feared thing in choosing seafood is not the tricks such as "water injection", but the problems such as illegal drugs and heavy metal residues. The former is nothing more than economic loss, while the latter may bring real health hazards. It is not uncommon to use illegal drugs in aquaculture, such as chloramphenicol and malachite green. Although the state is cracking down, small farmers and vendors still have illegal operations.
Heavy metals in crabs and shellfish, especially cadmium and lead, exceeded the standard seriously due to industrial pollution in some coastal waters of China. Therefore, try not to buy seafood from unknown sources, and don't buy seafood that is too cheap.
