Selecting Sea Cucumbers: Instant sea cucumbers can be purchased as large as possible, with thick meat and good nutrition, and freshly dried sea cucumbers are not the larger the better, but have to be compared to the toughness, length, and weight of the soaked sea cucumber. For example, a sea cucumber 3 cm, a sea cucumber 4 cm, after soaking are about 8 cm, then 3 cm sea cucumber to be good; a sea cucumber 4 grams, a sea cucumber 5 grams, after soaking are 50 grams, then four grams of sea cucumber to be good. This variation of sea cucumber can effectively escape the damage of natural enemies. Therefore, the color of the sea cucumber is just a kind of protective color, which has nothing to do with the quality of the sea cucumber.
