You can tell if the meat is frozen by the smell and color of the chilled pork on the store counter. i talked about it Moscow 24 chef, member of the Russian Cooks Association Anatoly Kryukov.
“If the pork neck or carbs are reddish, it means the meat has already thawed. Also, ask the salesperson to run it over it with a gloved finger. If juice remains on them, it means the meat is defrosted or stale,” says Kryukov.
The chef recommended not to buy vacuumed meat, preferring steamed meat.
“Still, if you’re making this choice, it’s important that the color of the meat is bright, light pink. Also, there was no humidity. Even if it has a special fabric lining, it is desirable that it be dry.
He added that the flavor of the meat should “not give off acid.”
In addition, the freshness of the meat can be checked by pressing it with a finger: if the hole does not heal immediately, it means that the meat is stale.
