Tips for Choosing Fresh and Delicious Chicken
– If buying pre-cooked chicken, choose free-range chicken with light yellow skin and firm meat. When touching the chicken, it should have good elasticity.
– Avoid buying chicken with a foul smell, watery discharge, or when touched, the meat feels soggy without elasticity.
– If buying live chicken, choose ones with smooth feathers, bright red combs, press the chicken breast area lightly and it should feel full and have good elasticity. Avoid choosing chickens with purple combs, dripping watery discharge, or dull feathers.
