It is mainly made from various meat products, which contain a large amount of salt. After ingestion, it can effectively supplement the body with fat, protein, and carbohydrates. It can also supplement abundant sodium ions, which not only ensures the speed of metabolism, but also increases satiety. However, it should be noted that excessive intake can easily lead to obesity. What are the benefits of eating sausages? Sausage, as a must-have dish during the Spring Festival, has a lot of loyal fans. Sausage contains a lot of fat, which can keep warm and cold resistant, warm the stomach and relieve blood, enhance appetite, and warm the stomach when consumed in winter. In addition, sausages contain a high amount of calories, and consuming a small amount can meet the body's calorie needs. However, dried and pickled foods contain a high amount of nitrite and preservatives, and eating too much can increase the burden on the liver. Is sausage cooked or steamed? Sausage can be steamed or boiled. But sausages belong to a type of flavored food, and in order to maintain their unique "fragrant" flavor, steaming them has a good taste without damaging their nutritional content. Cooking and eating will cause the nutrients of sausages to be lost in the water, and the taste will also fade, resulting in the loss of their unique aroma. The steaming time for sausages should not be too short, otherwise the inside of the sausage is not fully cooked and the texture is not fragrant, soft, and delicious enough; However, the steaming time should not be too long, otherwise the sausage casings will crack, and the meat taste will also dry. It is recommended that the water for sausages steamed in ordinary pots should be adjusted to medium and low heat after boiling, and steaming for 20 minutes is preferred. If you want to steam the sausages quickly, it is recommended to steam them in a pressure cooker. Just wait for the pressure cooker to steam, and then turn it to low heat for 10 minutes. How to choose sausages?

1. Check if the sausage is dry. A relatively dry sausage indicates better air drying, not only easy to preserve, but also has a relatively better taste. If you see that damp sausage, it means that the air drying is not thorough. Not only will it increase weight, but the taste is also relatively poor and not suitable for purchase.

2. Distinguish the color of sausages well. High quality sausages should not be too dark in color. If the color is too dark, it indicates that too much seasoning has been added or additives have been used. In terms of taste, it may not be ideal. Generally speaking, choosing a dark gray sausage would be better. If you see sausages with lean meat that is yellow and fatty meat that is light yellow, it is very likely that they have gone bad or are about to go bad. Don't hesitate to buy them.

4. Smell the sausage. High quality sausages are usually fragrant and delicious, while spoiled sausages can have a foul odor and sour taste. It is best to smell the sausage carefully before purchasing. It is worth noting that fragrant and tempting sausages may not necessarily be good sausages, as they may contain various spices [SEP]. 5. Pinch the hardness of the sausage. High quality sausages tend to be relatively hard when pinched, and the casing may shrink and wrinkle, indicating that the drying process of sausages is very gentle. If there are no wrinkles when pinched and the sausage is still soft and fluffy, then it is a low-quality sausage and I refuse to buy it!

6. Check if there is a clear distinction between fat and thin. The sausage with a combination of fat and lean has the best taste. If you can't distinguish between fat and lean, the taste will be slightly worse. So when choosing, be sure to carefully distinguish and distinguish!

7. Check the thickness of the casing. The thinner the sausage casing, the better. A thin casing will result in a crispy and fragrant taste after steaming. If the sausage casing is too thick, it will have a harder texture when eaten. So, when choosing sausages, you can observe the thickness of the casing at the opening before deciding whether to purchase. So, eating sausages can avoid overeating. After eating sausages, you can eat more vegetables and fruits rich in vitamin C appropriately, which can promote the secretion of gastric juice, help digest and decompose fat, and prevent obesity.
