Tips for selecting fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh cabbage
- You should choose heads that are round, slightly dark green, feel a bit heavy, and are firm in hand; these are good heads.
- Avoid buying heads that are flat or oval as these are likely to be spongy and not firm.
- Do not buy heads that are light white in color as they may be old, tough, and not tasty.
- Avoid buying heads with damaged outer leaves or that have turned yellow.

How to choose fresh and quality ground pork
- Choose meat that has a bright pink color, it is advisable to buy lean ground pork so that the soup does not contain too much fat. The surface of the meat should be dry, not slimy.
- You can buy pre-ground pork at the market and then prepare it, but be sure to buy it from reputable places.
- If you buy packaged ground pork at the supermarket, you should pay attention to the origin, expiry date, and whether the packaging is still intact.
- It is best to buy whole cuts of pork and ask the seller to grind it for you or grind it at home using a meat grinder to ensure safety and quality when using.
