How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh chicken intestines
- Good chicken intestines have bright and rosy colors, without dullness or tiny spots appearing on the surface.
- When touched, the intestines feel firm, not too soft or mushy, and especially check that they are not slimy.
- You should buy a set of good intestines that includes the heart, liver, and gizzard at specialized chicken meat stalls in the market or in the fresh food section of supermarkets!
How to choose fresh young chicken eggs
- Fresh young chicken eggs will have a very eye-catching golden color, and the eggs are small, with the largest being only about half the size of a regular egg.
- If possible, you should choose to buy young chicken eggs that have just been taken from the chicken’s belly, as this will ensure the freshest and best quality for the young chicken eggs.
- You can find young chicken eggs at large food markets, specialized chicken stores, or reputable e-commerce sites to ensure safety in quality.
How to choose fresh lotus seeds
- To ensure the freshness of lotus seeds, you should choose unpeeled lotus seeds that are still on the stalk.
- When choosing lotus stalks, you should select large and still green stalks. These stalks are freshly picked, so they will be tastier and sweeter.
- Avoid buying stalks that are too old, dark in color, and near wilting, as the seeds in these stalks will be harder to separate.
Where to buy fresh pork sausage?
- You can find fresh pork sausage at reputable food stores, supermarkets, e-commerce platforms, or TasteVN stores nationwide.
- Additionally, to ensure food safety and suit your family’s taste, you can also make fresh pork sausage at home with a recipe from TasteVN.

Prepping chicken intestines and quail eggs
After buying the chicken intestines, thoroughly massage them with 1 tablespoon of coarse salt, then rinse them under running water, drain, and cut into bite-sized pieces.
Wash the quail eggs under running water to easily remove all the slime, then remove the odor by rinsing with a little diluted vinegar, take them out, and rinse again with clean water.
