5 minute me nakli paneer kaise pehchane – 5 easy home tests
Iodine test – starch ki milawat
-
Paneer ka chhota tukda thode paani me boil karein.
-
Thanda hone dein.
-
2–3 drops iodine solution daalein.
-
Agar paneer blue ya bluish-black ho jaye, to starch ki milawat ho sakti hai.
-
Agar blue colour nahi aata, starch detect nahi hua.
Texture check
-
Achha paneer generally soft, moist aur halka crumbly hota hai.
-
Bahut zyada rubbery, unnaturally hard ya plastic jaisa texture suspicious ho sakta hai.
-
Lekin sirf texture se paneer ko fake confirm nahi kiya ja sakta.
Smell aur taste
-
Fresh paneer ki smell mild, milky hoti hai.
-
Chemical, detergent jaisi, bahut sour ya unusual smell aaye to use avoid karein.
-
Sirf taste karke suspected paneer test na karein.
Colour dekhein
-
Paneer usually white se creamy-white hota hai.
-
Bahut zyada bright white, artificial-looking ya uneven coloured paneer par doubt ho sakta hai, lekin colour alone proof nahi hai.
Heat test
-
Paneer ko pan me halka cook karke dekhein.
-
Genuine paneer normally soften/brown hota hai aur shape largely maintain karta hai.
-
Bahut unusual melting, excessive oil release ya synthetic/rubbery behaviour suspicious ho sakta hai, par ye definitive test nahi hai.
