How to choose fresh beef

To choose good beef, you should observe the color of the meat. Fresh, delicious meat is usually bright red, not dark red, and beef fat is light yellow.

You should choose to buy small, soft pieces of meat with fine grain and good elasticity when pressed.

Do not buy meat with small, white cysts that easily come off because it is likely that the meat is infected with tapeworms. If you choose to buy pre-processed and canned meat, remember to carefully check the origin and expiration date.
