Sea cucumbers, I think everyone has already heard about it. Sea cucumber enjoys the reputation of "the god of blood replenishment" and "the first of a hundred supplements". With so many kinds of sea cucumbers, how do you choose the right one for you? Black sea cucumber is also a kind of sea cucumber, and black sea cucumber can only be known by knowledgeable people, so what are the common practices of black sea cucumber?
What is Black Sea Cucumber?
Black sea cucumber is a species of sea cucumber family produced in China's Xisha Islands and the southern coast of Hainan, with a body length of 20 to 30 cm, a black or dark brown body, generally speaking, it can be matured after half a year of breeding, so the yield is large, the price is low, and it has certain economic value.
One truth that everyone needs to understand is that sea cucumbers are mimetic animals, and the color of the body surface is similar to the growth environment. Therefore, it is difficult if you want to identify sea cucumbers by color.
Dried sea cucumbers are generally yellow-brown and black in color. Because many consumers are superstitious about black sea cucumbers, some of them now become black after treatment. This process mainly includes a variety of methods such as adding sugar, dyeing, and peeling.
Is this how black sea cucumbers turned out to be? Influenced by traditional sea cucumbers, most people think that the blacker the color when choosing ready-to-eat sea cucumbers, the better the quality. Merchants who have been engaged in the production and processing of sea cucumber farming for many years say: There is no need to discuss the quality of sea cucumbers in terms of color shades. It is also said that the white sea cucumber is actually the albinism phenomenon of the thorn ginseng, because its genes are homozygous, resulting in its sea cucumber pigment gene is not represented, so the color of the sea cucumber is white. This phenomenon is actually more common in the animal kingdom, such as the white lion is also a phenomenon of albinism. Therefore, whether it is white or purple sea cucumbers, they may have research value because of their scarcity of color, but they cannot be said to have nutritional value.
The sea reminds everyone that the current sea cucumber market is more chaotic, therefore, do not believe in the color of sea cucumber, yellow-brown and black are the natural colors of dry sea cucumbers, and the nutritional value is no difference.
