The New Year is coming soon, and everyone will stock up on a little vermicelli for the New Year. So how to tell the authenticity of sweet potato vermicelli? Today I will share with you my six-character formula.
Six-character formula, simply put it, one look, two look, three smell, mainly look at the color, you can see its toughness when you break it apart, and smell it.
First of all, look at the appearance, the main ingredient of real pure sweet potato flour is sweet potato starch. Because the varieties of sweet potatoes are different, the quality of starch will also be different, and factors influencing the processing time and process flow will lead to different appearance and color of sweet potato vermicelli. There are some pure sweet potato flours that look black at a sudden glance, with rough surfaces, and small white bumps. This is because the sweet potato starch granules are relatively large and are not easy to dissolve fully. Some sweet potato vermicelli have very uniform colors and high gloss. At this time, you should pay attention to it. You cannot buy the one that looks better. The one that looks good may not be delicious. The vermicelli is shiny. It is very likely that it is such gelatin . So when we buy sweet potato vermicelli, we should choose the one that looks ugly.
Secondly, we can break it apart to see the toughness of the vermicelli. The pure sweet potato vermicelli will be particularly crispy after drying, and it is very dry and has low moisture. Sweet potato vermicelli without toughness will break it by just breaking it, and there will be more broken vermicelli. If the sweet potato vermicelli with gelatin is very tough, it will be difficult to break it with your hands. When purchasing, you can check whether there are broken sweet potato vermicelli in the vermicelli bag.
So if you see a lot of broken ones when buying sweet potato vermicelli, then you can choose to buy it. Although it is relatively broken, you can also make stuffing when you go home, which does not waste it and does not affect use, and the price is also affordable.
3rd, smell
Smell the odor
Sweet potato starch granules are relatively coarse and have no special smell. If you use sweet potato starch to process it into vermicelli, basically no smell, but some vermicelli stripes have a burnt smell, then you should pay attention. You can also roast sweet potato vermicelli with fire. The pure sweet potato vermicelli will expand quickly after lit and taste crisp and fragrant. After the fake vermicelli burns, it will smell bad and smoke will emit.
Pure sweet potato vermicelli are very resistant to cooking, not easy to paste, not easy to rot, and not easy to break. After cooking, the vermicelli is very elastic and has strong water absorption, so the boiled sweet potato vermicelli can easily absorb the soup after being left for a while. On the contrary, those fake sweet potato vermicelli are not easy to be battered after being cooked, and are not easy to rot, but are still strong and smooth.
Last and very important point is that when we buy sweet potato vermicelli, we must identify the national standard number, GB/T 23587. When buying bagged sweet potato vermicelli, you must check whether the outer packaging has a national standard number, GB/T 23587. If you don’t have this standard number, don’t buy it.
