How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh enoki mushrooms
- You should choose enoki mushrooms with short stems, round caps, and a moderate size that is not too big or too small.
- Avoid selecting mushrooms with scratches or bruises, unpleasant or strange smells.
- It is advisable to choose brown mushrooms because they will be crunchier and sweeter when stir-fried compared to white mushrooms, which are less sweet.
How to choose fresh carrots
- Choose carrots that are straight, bright in color, with smooth skin and feel heavy in your hand.
- Select those with a smaller core in the middle, as these will be sweeter.
- Avoid choosing carrots that have leaves or stems at the base, with thick and large shoulders, as these are less sweet, have large cores, and contain fewer nutrients.
- Steer clear of soft carrots, those that are misshapen or wilted.
Where to buy other ingredients
- Gochujang chili paste, kimchi, and Korean chili powder can be purchased at Korean supermarkets, e-commerce sites, or at TasteVN stores or bachhoaxanh.com.
- Additionally, for kimchi and fresh noodles, if you have time, you can make them right at home following TasteVN’s recipes.
