Brilio.net - Chicken tastes delicious and is easy to process. Chicken meat is also a food ingredient that is easily available on the market. There are people who buy chicken directly cooked, but there are also those who deliberately buy this meat in large quantities to keep as stock. Usually, this chicken meat stock will be stored in the freezer so that it lasts longer.
But did you know, you shouldn't store chicken meat carelessly, you know. Because if it is stored incorrectly, chicken meat can become contaminated and become unhygienic when cooked later.
Not only that, chicken meat that is stored carelessly can make the fishy smell even stronger, you know.
One mistake that many people often make when storing chicken is washing it first. Even though this is quite risky. A TikTok user @mecoo.id_official once explained further the impact of washing chicken meat before storing it.
"There are still many people who don't know that chickens shouldn't be washed, you know. Washing chickens with running water can cause bacterial contamination. Because splashing water on the chicken can cause the bacteria contained in the chicken to get onto food and cooking utensils," he explained, quoted by BrilioFood fromTikTok @mecoo.id_official on Friday (9/2).
However, you need to know that not even washing chicken meat doesn't mean you don't clean it. Through this video, he admits that he has his own tricks when cleaning chicken meat so that it is more hygienic when stored.

There are several stages that can be done. First, you just need to wipe the surface of the chicken with kitchen tissue. If there is dirt stuck to it, just pick it up with a kitchen tissue and throw it straight into the trash. After that, the chicken meat can be placed in an airtight container and then stored in the freezer.

The second way is to rely on hot water. So, first, boil water in a pan until it boils. After that, dip the chicken meat one by one into boiling water for a moment (3-5 seconds is enough). Do this process until all the chicken meat is used up.

Well, basically, this process is carried out to kill bacteria that are still attached to chicken meat. Apart from that, this method also helps eliminate the fishy smell of chicken meat. Therefore, chicken meat will remain clean and hygienic when stored.
After dipping it in hot water, drain it immediately. If necessary, wipe again with kitchen tissue so that it dries quickly and cleanly. Only then put it in an airtight container or plastic ziplock. Then store this chicken meat in the freezer. That way the chicken meat will remain clean, hygienic and anti-amitic.
