How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh tomatoes
- Good tomatoes will have a bright red outer skin, uniform color, no scratches, and a gentle natural fragrance.
- When buying, you should choose tomatoes that have a fresh stem, not wilted, and are firmly attached to the body.
- You should not buy tomatoes that have small uniform spots, when cut in half the seeds inside are green, and the flesh is light pink. Because these tomatoes are not naturally ripened but have been artificially ripened.
How to choose fresh pineapples
- You should choose pineapples that have an eye-catching yellow color, sometimes mixed with green spots because these are ripe and have reached a certain sweetness.
- A ripe pineapple will have a sweet fragrance, not too strong. When you touch it with your hand, you will feel it is moderately soft, and the skin is slightly wrinkled.
- Avoid buying pineapples that are unevenly colored. If the fruit has a lot of green, it means they are not fully ripe, while a fully yellow pineapple mixed with dark brown means it has been overripe for too long and is about to rot.

How to choose fresh and delicious beef liver
- You should choose liver that is dark red or light purple, and feels soft to the touch.
- Select pieces of liver that have good elasticity; when you press your finger into the liver, it should indent, and when you remove your finger, the indentation should spring back, indicating it is fresh liver.
- Do not choose liver that has a foul smell, a pale pink color, yellow or white, or feels mushy, as this indicates it comes from sick animals.
How to clean beef liver properly and eliminate unpleasant odors
- First, you must soak the beef liver in diluted salt water for at least 10 minutes. If you have time, you can soak it for over 30 minutes to ensure that impurities contained in the liver are removed.
- You can also use alcohol or vinegar to wash the beef liver, as this method can effectively reduce the fishy smell.
- Additionally, you can remove the outer membrane of the liver and then soak it in fresh milk to quickly eliminate odors and dirt.
- The beef liver needs to be drained of all blood clots before consumption; therefore, you need to boil the liver before cooking. The boiling time must be long enough to eliminate all bacteria and remaining impurities.
