Choice Between Country Chicken Vs Country Chicken

Maintenance

There are two types of chicken to make Yellow Chicken Opor, namely free-range chicken and free-range chicken. Is it better to use free-range chicken or free-range chicken?

This question is often asked by many people. There is a group that prefers free range because it is considered healthy. There is also a group that prefers to use free-range chicken because it is more affordable.

In fact, the protein in both types of chicken is equally consumed by your body. The difference between these two chickens is the way they are kept.

Often, the process of raising native chickens uses injections of hormones and antibiotics. This is what needs to be considered before choosing free-range chicken or commonly called free-range chicken.

The hormones that are injected into chickens in this country are the hormones estrogen, progesterone, steroids, and testosterone. They say that if you eat home-cooked chicken injected with hormones, it will affect a woman's menstrual period.

In fact, antibiotics and hormone injections are used. By injecting hormones, broiler chickens can grow faster. Antibiotic injections are given to prevent the development of chickens.

Unlike free-range chicken, free-range chicken is not. Free-range chickens are often given food such as dry rice because native chickens can often find food on their own.

Meat texture

The care of the two types of chickens has been described above, now you need to know the difference between these two types of chickens. Free-range chicken meat is very thick and contains a lot of fat. Because the meat must be cooked quickly, it is suitable for a variety of processed foods.

In contrast to native chicken, which is not fat and the meat is as big as native chicken. Free-range chicken meat tends to be denser and firmer than native chicken. This is what makes free-range chicken through a new ungkep process, the texture of the meat is soft.

You must already know the difference between these two types of chicken. Well, on this Eid day, do you prefer free-range chicken or free-range chicken to be processed into yellow chicken opor?

One thing you should know is that free-range chicken and free-range chicken are both delicious to eat. But if too much will be dangerous.
