How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh onions
- You should choose onions with thin, shiny skin and a beautiful orange-yellow color.
- The darker the onion skin, the stronger the smell and the sweeter the taste, and they feel firm to the touch.
- Round and short onions are usually tastier than long ones.
- Choose onions with skin that clings tightly to the bulb, not peeling off.
- Avoid choosing sprouted onions as they often have hard and soft spots, and the sweetness is greatly reduced, making them less tasty when cooked.
- Do not buy onions that are soft, wilted, or have uneven skin color, as they are old and about to spoil.
How to choose fresh bell peppers
- Choose bell peppers with a smooth, shiny surface, and fresh stems that are firmly attached to the fruit.
- Opt for peppers with a base divided into three sections for better taste and crunchiness when stir-frying.
- Select brightly colored peppers that are not too light in weight, as these are fresh and nutrient-rich.
- Avoid peppers that are bruised, waterlogged, wrinkled, or have wilted stems.
