Which is better, instant sea cucumber or dry sea cucumber?
Instant sea cucumber and dry sea cucumber have their own advantages, so we can choose from the aspects of taste, nutritional value, eating method, price and portability.

1, taste

Dry sea cucumber tastes better and the meat is full after soaking, while the instant sea cucumber tastes soft and waxy, which is more suitable for people who like soft and waxy taste.

2. Nutritional value

Dry sea cucumber and instant sea cucumber are rich in nutrients such as protein, collagen and trace elements. Dry sea cucumber is more nutritious because it retains more active ingredients. However, dry sea cucumber may lose some nutrients because it needs to be soaked before eating. In contrast, even if the sea cucumber is dehydrated to a certain extent and has relatively few nutrients during processing, it still has certain nutritional value.

3. How to eat

Dry sea cucumber needs to be soaked in advance, and the soaking process is complicated, so the soaked sea cucumber is not easy to preserve. Instant sea cucumber can be eaten without soaking, which is convenient and fast. However, the shelf life of ready-to-eat sea cucumber is short, so it should be eaten as soon as possible after opening.

4. Price

The price in dry sea cucumber is relatively high, which is suitable for people with certain economic strength to eat for a long time. Instant sea cucumber is cheap, suitable for family daily consumption or occasional enjoyment.

5, portability

Instant sea cucumber is small in size, light in weight and convenient to carry, and is suitable for traveling, going out and other occasions. Dry sea cucumber, on the other hand, is bulky, heavy and inconvenient to carry.

Introduction to the selection method of sea cucumber;

1, sea cucumber must be dry, hard and solid. Dry sea cucumber is easy to deteriorate, because it contains a lot of water, and the price is much higher than the actual price.

2. When you buy dry sea cucumber, you should choose the kind with dry wrinkles (naturally dried). Some unscrupulous traders usually add a lot of sugar, gum and even alum to increase the weight of sea cucumber during processing. Although the sea cucumber processed in this way does not meet the quality standards, it is extremely full and beautiful in color, which has brought great deception to consumers.
