How to choose fresh blueberries
- When buying blueberries at fruit import-export stores, you should check the expiration date and the labels on the packaging.
- Prioritize selecting fresh, round fruits with thin skins that are dark purple or slightly bluish in color. Pay attention to fruits that still have stems and the calyx covered with a characteristic thin white layer.
- Avoid choosing fruits that show signs of being rotten, bruised, or leaking juice.
- Additionally, you should buy blueberries at reputable imported fruit stores or supermarkets to ensure quality.
What is gelatin? Where to buy it?
- Gelatin is a material extracted from collagen – which exists in the bones and skin of animals (for example, pig skin). The processing of animal skins is done very meticulously from the cleaning stage to the processing stage to create gelatin suitable for use in the food industry.
- There are 2 common forms of gelatin: sheet and powder, both of which are of equal quality. Note that if using gelatin powder, it is 6g of gelatin powder + 250ml of liquid, if using gelatin sheets, it is 3 sheets of gelatin + 250ml of liquid.
- You can buy gelatin at baking ingredient stores, large supermarkets, or purchase online on e-commerce websites.
