As a native seaside person, eating seafood is a common thing, so it seems that there is no lack of seafood on the family table, which is accustomed to us, but for inland friends seem to be envious, I think eating seafood or fresh seafood is called seafood, so near the water tower first to get the moon, people living by the sea are really too happy.
The variety of seafood is also very rich, remember when I was a child, my favorite is to go to the beach with my mother to catch the sea, the reef by the sea is full of sea oysters, we are called sea oysters, in fact, the scientific name is oysters, with small stones to pry open one side of the shell of the oysters, and then the meat inside can be eaten directly raw, now can not, because there are a lot of sea areas are polluted, oysters can not be eaten raw, but take home to make soup is too delicious.
Later, when I grew up, I never went to the sea again, I wanted to eat sea oysters are bought and eaten, the price of sea oysters is not cheap, but it is also excusable, because catching the sea is really very hard, but have you found that there are two kinds of seafood on the market that are very similar to oysters and oysters, and even people who have eaten seafood like me for 30 years know that there is a big difference between oysters and oysters.
Today I will share with you how to distinguish between oysters and oysters, after knowing it, don't be stupid and confused, let's see what the difference is.
The first difference: variety
In fact, oysters and oysters look very similar, but they are two different seafood, in fact, oysters are a kind of oysters, the types of oysters are very many, about three is several, and oysters are one of the more high-quality ones, so some people say that oysters are oysters, which is wrong.
Second difference: appearance
If you look closely, you will find that the appearance of oysters and oysters is different, and the surface of oysters is uneven and gray, looking like a stone. The surface of the oyster is also relatively rough, but the grain will be smaller, most of the color is black, the size is relatively small; the two shells are also large and convex, one is small and flat, looking like a triangle.
The third difference: the growing environment
Oysters do not have high requirements for sea temperature and environment, so many seas are produced. Oysters like cold seawater, and when cultivated, they must also be in shallow bays that are half salty and half light, or at the confluence of rivers and oceans. Oysters pay great attention to the "origin environment", different environments have created different meat textures, so the top "Belon oysters" can have the reputation of "the king of oysters in the world".
Fourth difference: nutritional value
Due to the long growth cycle of oysters, it is very rich in nutrients, of which zinc content is 7 times that of oysters, and protein content is also up to 40%; and the advantage of oysters is that it has a high calcium content, which is about 4 times that of oysters.
The fifth difference: price
Because the growth cycle of oysters is long, so the size is large, generally on a sale, especially the imported oysters are expensive, and oysters are usually sold on the pound, the price is relatively cheap, generally 4 to 5 yuan a pound.
