How to choose fresh and delicious pickled mustard greens
- You should choose mustard greens that are yellow-brown, uniformly colored, and avoid those that are still green because they are freshly pickled and have not absorbed enough flavor, which will result in a less tasty dish.
- Additionally, you can check by smelling them; do not choose those that have a strong and slightly pungent fermented smell, as these may have been pickled for too long and have fewer nutrients.
- At the same time, to ensure the quality and crispiness of the pickled mustard greens, you can proactively make them at home using the detailed guide below from TasteVN.
