How to choose fresh and delicious water spinach
- Good water spinach has dark green leaves, thick stems, and a crisp, tender texture, not tough, with a translucent, juicy appearance.
- Avoid choosing plants that have flowered, have old yellowing leaves, or tough stems as they will not taste good.
How to choose fresh and delicious eggs
- Fresh chicken eggs have a uniform shell color, slightly rough texture, and when shaken gently next to your ear, you should not hear any sound.
- Additionally, you can shine a light on the eggs; if you see a small air cell, clear egg white, and a balanced orange or light pink yolk, it indicates fresh eggs. Conversely, a large air cell, dark red yolk, and spots indicate old eggs.
- Moreover, avoid choosing eggs that are too shiny, have a pale color, or many black spots as they are old eggs.
Just a few simple steps and you can make the enticing water lily mixed with eggs and meat to treat the family. Wish you success!
