How to choose fresh beetroot
- The main season for beetroot is from June to November, during which beetroot is sweetest and crispiest.
- When choosing fresh beetroot, you should select those with dark red skin, firm to the touch, and when pressed lightly, they feel hard.
- Avoid buying soft or rotten tubers as these are wilted or spoiled beetroot, leading to a bland taste and lack of crunch.
How to choose crispy green apples
- To choose crispy green apples, first prioritize apples of moderate size with shiny skin, green color, and tiny white spots.
- Crispy sweet apples feel heavy in hand and have a moderate firmness. When you flick them lightly, you can hear a clear sound.
- Avoid selecting oversized apples or those that are soft with dark bruises. These are signs that the apples are spoiled or rotten.
