The price of jellyfish head fluctuates to some extent, usually between 30-50 yuan per catty, and better quality can be sold to 60 yuan per catty. Besides jellyfish head, jellyfish skin is also a good food, and it is much cheaper. The price of a kilo of jellyfish skin is around 25-35 yuan, and good jellyfish skin can be sold to 50 yuan. It is worth mentioning that jellyfish head refers to its wrist, while jellyfish skin is its umbrella.
2. How to distinguish good from bad jellyfish heads1. Smell: The first thing to distinguish jellyfish heads is to smell them. Good jellyfish heads smell no fishy smell, because fresh jellyfish itself has a weak fishy smell, which is basically impossible to smell after treatment. If there is fishy smell, it means that it is not fresh or not handled well.
2. Try elasticity: Jellyfish itself is very elastic, so you can try it by pulling it with your hand. If it is not easy to break and has moderate hardness, it means it is relatively fresh. If it is not elastic and it is easy to break, it means it is not fresh. It is best not to buy it.
3. Look at the color: Good jellyfish heads can also be distinguished by color. Generally, they look white as a whole, with light yellow and good gloss. If it is a soaked jellyfish head, it often has erythema or silt, and the longer it lasts, the more obvious the red color will be.
