Most sea cucumbers on the market do not have them

Many friends buy sea cucumbers into a misunderstanding.

Blindly think that the rise of sea cucumber is the only criterion for judging the quality of sea cucumber? The origin of the sea area is not considered! The growth rate of sea cucumber is used to judge whether sea cucumber has been added, not the only criterion for judging whether it is good or bad, as long as the purity of sea cucumber from any origin is enough, it can be soaked 15 times, which can only represent its process.

When you buy sea cucumbers, you only look at the place of origin, but you don't know which place of origin will have dried sugar, dried salt, light dry, and pure light dry. Don't you look at the growing environment of sea cucumbers? Can cages, bottom sowing, and wild be the same?

Purity I only know that there is a dried sea cucumber, do you know which one? Some sea cucumbers can be dried for 10 catties, but they need 30 catties to be dried for a catty. What a difference!

Choose sea cucumber to blindly compare**, good sea cucumber needs a higher cost to support, of course, there are shoddy cases. But cheap things that are lower than the market cost, I believe that merchants are not willing to pay for them.

Take the size of the sea cucumber to judge whether it is good or bad. It is not the number and size of sea cucumbers that determine the quality of sea cucumbers, which sea cucumbers have large, medium and small specifications!

Three steps to teach you to choose a good light dried sea cucumber, simple and efficient!

1.Look at the epidermis.

The skin of high-quality light dried sea cucumber has a natural color, black-brown and yellow-brown, and the most important texture is naturally clean and refreshing.

The inferior ones have crack-like lines on the epidermis (freeze-dried), sticky into a piece with a pulp feeling (dried sugar), and whitish with cream (dried salt).

2.Look at the bars.

The high-quality sea cucumber strips are spindle-shaped, with a small upper and lower middle and slightly fatter.

Of course, it is normal for some individual sea cucumbers to have some long strips, because not every sea cucumber is the same. If most of them are long and cylindrical, it is not the Liao cucumber of Dalian!

3.Look at the bottom foot.

The bottom of the high-quality sea cucumber is flaked, and it is very clear that one piece is one piece.

The inferior ones are punctate and small columns, or the bottom foot is not clear and has a viscous pulp feeling.
