What foods should not be washed before cooking?

0

Unintentionally, cooks and housewives make 4 mistakes with food before cooking them. Let's tell you what can happen and why it's time to stop doing this.

Washing raw meat

A procedure devoid of any meaning. The fact is that during further processing at high temperatures, all pathogenic microbes die.

But during washing, you can unwittingly contribute to the spread of the same bacilli in the kitchen work area. The same goes for raw chicken, turkey, and meat in general.

Washing chicken eggs

If you wash eggs before putting them in the refrigerator, they will soon spoil.

But the saddest thing is that this contributes to the transmission of pathogenic bacteria (most often salmonella). It lives on the outside of the shell, but after washing it can also appear inside because the natural barrier is destroyed.

Then the bacteria will appear in the human body, which will end sadly.

Fish

Fish, like meat, is also washed before cooking, except in cases where it is necessary to wash the abdominal cavity after evisceration.

Mushrooms

The fact is that mushrooms subtly react to moisture and actively absorb it, which affects the taste. Therefore, they are only cleaned of minor impurities before processing.
