How to choose delicious fermented tofu
You should choose fermented tofu that is not moldy, spoiled, with a tightly sealed container, not dented or broken; check the expiration date and production place to ensure quality. You can buy fermented tofu at reputable grocery stores or TasteVN.
Additionally, you can make it at home to ensure safety as well as hygiene quality.
How to choose fresh and delicious eggplants
- You should choose eggplants that have intact, shiny, smooth skin and are evenly colored.
- When held, they should feel firm, not too light, and when pressed lightly, they should not be too hard, and there should be no liquid oozing out to be a good option.
- Choose eggplants that still have the stem at the top, where the stem and skin are connected, indicating that they are still fresh.
- You can gently press on the eggplant with your hand; if it leaves an imprint on the skin, it means the eggplant is ripe.
Tips for preparing eggplants without browning
- After buying the eggplants, cut them and soak them in a bowl of cold water containing a mixture of salt and lemon juice or vinegar.
- Use a strainer to keep the eggplants fully submerged in the water and wait until you are ready to cook to take them out.
How to choose fresh and delicious okra
- Choose fresh, young okra pods that are small in size, have a beautiful shiny green color, and a thin layer of fine hairs on the outer skin.
- Avoid buying okra that is soft or has dark spots on the outside, as well as those that are too large, which indicates that they are old and not tasty.
- When you press gently with your hand, the skin should feel crispy and firm, not soft or dented, indicating that the okra is fresh and young.
