How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh chicken breast
- When buying chicken breast, you should choose pieces that have a rosy color, a slightly shiny surface, and firm texture.
- You should prioritize buying chicken breast from reputable places like supermarkets or large chicken meat stalls at the market.
- Do not buy if the chicken breast has white streaks along the body, as these pieces contain a lot of fat and little protein.
- You should also avoid buying pieces that are dark in color, feel slimy to the touch, especially if they have an unusual odor.
How to choose fresh and delicious carrots
- To buy fresh and delicious carrots, you should choose those with a bright orange color, feel heavy and firm when held, and have the tops still tightly attached to the root.
- In addition, you should prioritize choosing carrots with a small core in the middle and of moderate size, as these are usually sweeter and have a higher nutritional content.
- You should avoid buying carrots with wilted tops, rough surfaces, or tiny spots, as they tend to be fibrous and not sweet anymore.
- Do not choose large carrots that feel light when held, as these are likely to be old and not tasty.
