Pork tenderloin is a part of the animal carcass, which is included in the group of dietary meat products and is even considered a delicacy. Pork is considered a "heavy" food, but this cannot be fully said about pork tenderloin, since this part of the pig contains a small percentage of fat layers.
Before buying, you should lightly press your finger on the meat. The muscle fibers of the fresh tenderloin will quickly return to their previous position. If the hole remains in place and liquid has leaked into it, it means that the meat has been stuffed with food additives.
If you attach a paper napkin to the tenderloin, the latter will remain dry.
First-class pork tenderloin does not emit foreign odors.
Pork tenderloin meat is moderately pink. Dark tones indicate the old age of the animal. Light – hormonal supplements were used in large quantities when growing pigs.
When adding soy sauce to a dish, it is worth considering that it has a rather salty taste. Reduce the total amount of salt, otherwise you risk over-salting.
So that the mucous membrane of the eyes is not irritated when slicing onions, rinse the onion and knife with cold water. The cutting board will not absorb the unpleasant onion smell if you rub it with a piece of lemon before slicing.
Keep in mind that everyone's ovens are different. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those specified in the recipe. To make any baked dish successful, use useful information about the features of ovens !
