How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh green apples
- To buy good green apples, you should choose those with a smooth green skin, firm and shiny, without any blemishes.
- Additionally, good green apples will have a stem that is still fresh and tightly attached to the fruit, making it hard to fall off. When sniffing, you will sense a fragrant, lightly sour aroma that is pleasant. Especially, the riper the apple, the stronger this fragrance will be, and naturally, the juice when pressed will also be more abundant.
- Avoid choosing apples that no longer have stems or have wilted stems, and when gently squeezed, feel soft and spongy. This is because they are often stored for a long time and are no longer fresh.
How to choose delicious, non-bitter cucumbers
- Prioritize selecting cucumbers that are straight and elongated, as these have dense flesh and will yield sweeter juice.
- Additionally, freshly picked cucumbers will have a thin layer of powder on the surface, with many bumps, and the stem still firmly attached to the fruit.
- Do not choose cucumbers that are crooked or swollen in the middle. These are usually overripe, have many seeds, and taste bitter and unpleasant.

How to choose fresh and delicious green beans (string beans)
- When buying, you should prioritize choosing green beans that are long and flat. If the bean pods have many bumps, it means the beans inside are large and the beans are old, making the juice not sweet and refreshing.
- Additionally, fresh, newly picked green beans will have stems that are still green and firmly attached to the bean tops.
- You should not choose green beans that look too beautiful, such as shiny and smooth with few hairs. This is because they may have been sprayed with a lot of pesticides, and the remaining residue is extremely unhealthy.
