How to Choose Fresh Ingredients
How to Choose Fresh Duck Meat
For Live Ducks
- Choose ducks with shiny, smooth feathers, and no down feathers visible on the inside; the outer feathers should be long and full. Do not choose ducks with frizzy feathers, bad odors, or lethargy, as these may be sick ducks.
- When holding the duck’s breast, it should feel round and plump, with thick skin on the neck and belly indicating good quality.
- If the duck’s wings can cross over each other, it indicates that the duck is mature, easy to pluck, and has a lot of meat.
For Processed Ducks
- Choose ducks that are uniformly light yellow in color, with a fresh feel. Do not choose ducks that are too dark or have bruises or spots.
- If pressing on the duck feels firm and elastic, it is good; do not choose those that feel soft and mushy, have a foul smell, or are leaking fluids, as these are old ducks and not fresh.
- It is best to choose fresh sour bamboo shoots that are packaged with clear labels and expiration dates.
- Avoid buying fresh sour bamboo shoots without packaging, as you will not know their actual quality (whether they are soaked in chemicals or are sanitary).
- Avoid purchasing bamboo shoots that are too white, as they may have been soaked in bleach. Also, avoid those with black mold or green mold to ensure health safety.

In a bowl, add: 5 teaspoons of fish sauce, 1/2 teaspoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of lime juice, and stir the mixture until dissolved.
