How to Choose Fresh and Delicious Beef
- When choosing beef, first you should prioritize selecting pieces that are bright red, with a dry surface.
- Gently press on the piece of meat; if it has a certain resilience, does not stick to your hand, and smells distinctly of beef without being foul or fishy, it’s a good choice.
- Avoid buying pieces of beef that are pale green, dull, or have a slimy surface as these are signs that the beef has been stored for too long or has spoiled.
How to Remove the Smell of Beef
- You can soak the beef in white wine for about 15 minutes, then rinse it with clean water.
- Alternatively, you can put the beef in a pot of water, blanch it for 3 to 5 minutes, then rinse it to reduce the smell.
- Use lemon or vinegar to rub on the piece of beef for about 5 – 7 minutes, then rinse with clean water.
How to choose fresh and delicious bell peppers
- You should choose male bell peppers for stir-frying as they will be tastier and more flavorful; select bell peppers with smooth, shiny skin and intact stems.
- Opt for bell peppers that have bright colors; when held, they should feel heavy, and the skin should be firmer than that of female bell peppers.
- Avoid buying bell peppers that have wrinkled skin, feel light when picked up, and have a soft texture, as these are peppers that have wilted or spoiled.
