Note: how to choose hairtail? 1. Body surface: hairtail with good quality has glossy body surface, complete scales, not easy to fall off, complete wings, no broken belly and broken head. The hairtail with poor quality has poor luster on its body surface, scales are easy to fall off, and there is only a small amount of silver and phosphorus in its body. Its body turns fragrant gray, and it has broken belly and broken head. Fresh hairtail is silvery gray and glossy, but some hairtail attach a layer of yellow substance on the silvery white luster. This is because hairtail is a kind of fish with high fat. When it is not well kept, the fat on the surface of hairtail will accelerate oxidation due to a large amount of contact with air, and the oxidation product will make the surface of hairtail yellow. When buying hairtail, try not to buy yellow hairtail. If you buy it, eat it in time, otherwise the fish will rot and stink quickly. 2. Weight: hairtail of good quality, each weighing more than 0.5kg. Hairtail of poor quality, each weighing about 0.25 kg. 3. Muscle: hairtail with good quality has thick and elastic muscles. Hairtail of poor quality has soft muscles and poor elasticity. 4. Fisheye: hairtail with good quality, full eyeball and transparent cornea. In hairtail of poor quality, the eyeball is slightly retracted and the cornea is slightly turbid.
