If this is your first time preparing this dish, don't overlook a few small tips below to make the dish even more enticing.
How to choose fresh and delicious pork liver
- Choose pork livers with vibrant red color. Avoid buying ones with pale or dark brown color as they are no longer fresh.
- When purchasing, observe that the surface of the liver is soft, and the membrane is still attached to the liver tissue. When pressed, you should see some blood oozing out.
- Avoid selecting overly large, soft, mushy livers with yellow fluid in the tissue. These are livers that are diseased or soaked in harmful chemicals detrimental to health.
