Kapanlagi.com - In recent years, the trend of selling seafood satay on the streets has skyrocketed and become a favorite among the public. Who can resist the deliciousness of this snack? Frozen seafood products such as crab sticks, fish balls, and cheese fish dumplings have become highly sought after, thanks to their delightful taste and soft texture.
However, behind its popularity, there are challenges that must be faced in the processing of seafood satay, particularly the issue of spoilage. A vendor who shared their story on the TikTok account @neptunusfrozen revealed their shocking experience: the seafood satay they sell can develop slime in just two days! This has become a significant concern for sellers and consumers who love this delicious dish.
1. Challenges in Selling Seafood Satay
Processing and selling seafood skewers is indeed not an easy task. One of the biggest challenges is the risk of spoilage that lurks when the product is left at room temperature. According to blendofbites.com, processed meats, including fish, contain high levels of saturated fats that can trigger mucus formation. If not handled properly, this spoilage can be marked by the appearance of mucus and a sour taste, which is certainly dangerous and can lead to food poisoning. Therefore, proper handling is key to maintaining the quality of seafood skewers.
The experiences of traders show that the correct methods of storage and processing are crucial for ensuring that seafood skewers remain safe for consumption. One trader explained, "If those selling their goods use plastic mika like this, they will definitely be going back and forth to the freezer. However, no matter how you try to manage it, within two days, the skewers will start to become sticky and taste sour." This is an important reminder for sellers to always maintain product quality for the health of consumers.
2. Tricks to Reduce Slime on Seafood Satay
To tackle the slime issue that often bothers seafood satay, a vendor shares a great trick worth trying! The method is quite simple: soak the seafood satay in boiling hot water. This method not only reduces the slime that sticks to the surface of the seafood but also helps to lessen the sour taste that sometimes appears. Be sure to flip the satay several times for optimal results!
Not only that, this soaking process also helps to extend the shelf life of the seafood satay, making it safer to enjoy. However, there is one thing to remember: seafood satay that has been soaked should be consumed within one day to prevent the slime from returning. With this trick, you can enjoy seafood satay that is more delicious and tasty!
