How to choose fresh and delicious pork ribs
- Choose ribs that are bright pink, firm to the touch, and have good elasticity.
- It is advisable to select ribs with flat, small bones as this type has more meat and less bone compared to larger ribs.
- Avoid choosing ribs that are pale green, soft, leaking slimy fluids, or have an unusual odor.
How to choose fresh and delicious tomatoes
- Choose tomatoes with a bright red outer layer, evenly colored. No scratches, skin intact, and plump.
- Ripe tomatoes have a light, pleasant fragrance that is easy to recognize. In contrast, those that are artificially ripened usually lack any aroma.
- The stem part of the tomato if still fresh usually sticks tightly to the fruit and is not wilted.
- Avoid choosing tomatoes with stems that are easily broken off as it is likely that the fruit is wilted or damaged.
How to choose delicious fresh sour fruits
- To buy good sour fruits, you should select each fruit carefully. At the end of May, sour fruits start to appear, but to get the delicious medium-sized sour fruits, you need to wait until June to early September.
- You can buy sour fruits during this time, wash them clean, put them in a container, and store them in the freezer of the refrigerator. When using, just take the sour fruits out and defrost them to prepare right away.
- The best sour fruits are those freshly picked, with the stem intact and still sap-filled, bright green color, not bruised, and with a rough outer skin.
- Avoid buying fruits that are bruised, leaking, or showing signs of spoilage.
