Trust Us, This Advice Is A Game Changer!
We've all been there: We're all ready to make our favorite meat dish…we take out the meat we bought just for this special recipe…only to discover that it's turned a funny color and, well, just doesn't look quite right. Like many of us, you might automatically assume that the meat has gone bad and that you'd better just throw it away and not risk making everyone sick. However, we recently came across an explanation of why meat changes color and what that means, and let me tell you, this advice completely changed the way we looked at meat.
Here's some of what we learned about why meat changes color:
In the case of red meat, it it's exposed to light or air, its color could darken, something that can also happen when meat is frozen. Poultry can also change color when frozen, and with both red meat and poultry, color variations can be caused by the specific animal it came from, including its age, diet, breed and sex.
