How to Choose Fresh and Delicious Ingredients
How to choose good pumpkin
- To choose fresh and delicious pumpkin, first, you should observe the outer color of the pumpkin. The skin of the pumpkin should have a mix of green and orange-yellow, without bruises.
- Next, gently press the pumpkin with your hand; it should feel firm, and the stem should be fresh green and slightly flexible.
- Avoid choosing pumpkins with bruised or damaged skin or those with very dry stems, as these pumpkins have been stored for a long time, resulting in less sweetness and more fiber.

How to choose good mung beans
- You should choose fresh mung beans, plump and shiny beans, with a light natural fragrance when smelled, and there should be no powdery residue when held in hand.
- Avoid selecting beans with unusual colors, signs of mold or pests, or any strange odor when smelled.
- If you cannot find shelled mung beans, you can buy whole mung beans, soak them for 2 – 3 hours before cooking, and then rinse off the husk.

Cook pumpkin and mung beans

Continue to close the lid and press the warm button, cooking for about 1 hour until the mung beans and pumpkin are soft.
When the mung beans and pumpkin are soft, open the lid, continue to press the cook button, and while waiting for the pumpkin to boil again, use chopsticks to mash the pumpkin finely.
Finally, when the pumpkin boils, add 1 vanilla stick and stir well to finish.
Tip:- Depending on your family’s preference for sweetness, you can adjust the amount of sugar!
