How to choose delicious young starfruit
- Choose starfruit with a vibrant green skin, free from scratches or rough patches. Avoid selecting starfruit that has turned yellow, as that indicates it has been stored for too long and is ripe.
- The starfruit should feel heavy, firm, and have a light, distinctive fragrance when held.
- The stem should be intact and firmly attached to the body; if there is a layer of sap around it, that means it is freshly picked starfruit.
- It is advisable to choose fresh starfruit, avoiding those that have been stored for a long time, as they will lose their crispness.

How to select fresh green mangoes
- To choose good green mangoes, select those with a rounded waist that tapers towards the tail. The outer skin should have a moderate green color, not too light and not too dark.
- Pay attention to the stem; if the stem is still fresh, plump, and particularly has sap attached, then it is definitely freshly picked mango.
- A good green mango will have a firm texture when pressed, not too soft. When smelled, it should have a mild, characteristic mango aroma.

How to choose fresh and delicious chicken feet
- To select delicious chicken feet, you need to observe them; fresh chicken feet will have a naturally pinkish-white color, and the bones inside should still be red.
- You can also identify fresh chicken feet by touch. Fresh chicken feet will have elastic skin, no sliminess on the skin, and feel firm when held.
- Avoid choosing chicken feet that are overly plump and swollen, with skin that is not wrinkled.
- If chicken feet show deformities, lumps, or bruises, they may be from sick chickens and should not be purchased.
- Additionally, avoid choosing chicken feet that are scratched or bruised, as they are usually feet that have been stored for a long time.
How to clean chicken feet, no odor
- To eliminate the odor of chicken feet, you can rub them with salt and then rinse them several times with clean water.
- You can soak the chicken feet submerged in water with 15g baking soda and 15ml of rice vinegar for 15 – 20 minutes. Soaking like this will help the chicken feet completely remove dirt and will soften faster when cooked.
