How to choose good ripe bananas
- When buying bananas, you should prioritize choosing naturally ripened bananas with a thin outer peel and the skin showing dark spots. These are older bananas with natural sweetness.
- Additionally, when buying bananas, you should select ones that are of moderate size, with a slight curve, and not bruised or battered, or have many blemishes on the skin.
- Do not choose bananas with evenly beautiful yellow skin and an unusually shiny green stem, as these are fruits that have been ripened with chemicals and should not be used.

How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose crunchy apples that are not mealy
- You should choose apples with shiny skin, bright color, feel firm in hand, and when touched, there should be no rough feeling. If you prefer sweet apples, you can choose darker ones with tiny white seeds.
- For the apple stem, you should choose those with fresh stems that are tightly attached to the fruit.
- Do not choose apples that are dull in color, bruised, or infested, as these are spoiled and not tasty.
How to choose fresh spinach
- Choose vegetables with bright green stems, roots that are red, and not broken.
- The vegetable leaves should be dark green but not too dark, indicating they are still young and contain many nutrients.
- Avoid choosing vegetables that are bruised, wilted, yellowed, or rotten as they will not taste good and lose their nutrients.
