Pay attention when buying oyster sauce! If the packaging doesn't have these two words and letters, don't accept it!
Three meals a day can’t be without rice, oil, salt, vinegar and tea. Nowadays, the variety of seasonings has increased a lot, besides the old ones, more and more people consider oyster sauce as an essential kitchen ingredient. Oyster sauce has a thick sauce, a slightly sweet flavor with a seafood flavor, oyster sauce is suitable for cooking various ingredients such as meat, vegetables, bean products, fungi, etc., and can also be used to season noodles, cook seafood, and supplement meals.
1The bottle must have these two words and letters.
When buying any seasoning, I suggest first checking the ingredient list. Oyster sauce is made from oysters, boiled and extracted juice concentrated, with additives refined.Therefore, the main component is ‘oyster sauce’, so it must have ‘oyster sauce’ words.If it doesn’t have this main ingredient, it’s either not genuine or artificially made, don’t accept it!
Also, when looking at oyster sauce, we need to look at the product label. GB is the abbreviation of national standard. If the oyster sauce starts with the letter GB, it means that the oyster sauce is produced according to the national standard. We can use it with confidence.
2Observe the bottle body
Invert the oyster sauce bottle and wait 15 seconds to observe the color of the bottom. If the color is slightly reddish and transparent, we will definitely not make a mistake. If the color is dark black or very dark, the oyster sauce may add colorants, so don’t buy it.
3Look at the bottom
The method is the same as the second method, invert the oyster sauce bottle and wait 15 seconds to observe the bottom color. If the color is slightly reddish and transparent, we will definitely not make a mistake. If the color is dark black or very dark, the oyster sauce may add colorants, so don’t buy it.
Good oyster sauce can add color to food, making the flavor more fragrant. As long as everyone follows my above three points to select oyster sauce, I believe everyone can make ‘full Han cuisine’. Just one thing I want to remind you, oyster sauce is good, but because of the food’s opposition, oyster sauce cannot be mixed with spicy seasonings. Spicy seasonings have a strong flavor, which will cover the flavor of the oil, and also damage the freshness of the oil.
