How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose good quality noodle soup
- When buying, you can smell to see if the noodle soup has the natural aroma of rice and corn flour. If the noodle soup has a strong smell and is not fragrant, it may have been soaked in chemicals.
- Good noodle soup has a translucent white color, is soft, chewy, and elastic.
- You should not choose noodle soup strands with unusual colors or smells, or those that are moldy as they will affect the quality of the dish.
- It is best to buy noodle soup from reputable production facilities or at supermarkets and large grocery stores.
- Additionally, to ensure safety and hygiene, you can also make noodle soup strands at home.
How to choose fresh and delicious pork
- Pork that has a dry film on the outside, with a cut surface that becomes firm to the touch and does not feel sticky is the type of meat that is good.
- Additionally, fresh and delicious meat will have lean parts that are pinkish-red and tender, while the fat should be opaque white. You should choose meat that feels elastic when you press it.
- If you see a piece of meat that is dark red or blackish, do not buy it as this may be pork raised with lean meat enhancers.
- Avoid buying meat that is light green, darkened, or has red skin because this is spoiled pork that should not be used, as it can affect health.
- To cook this noodle soup dish best, you should prioritize buying the tender lean part!
How to choose fresh bean sprouts
- When buying bean sprouts, you should choose those that are less plump and uneven to ensure naturalness, as bean sprouts with thick, even stems may have been soaked in chemicals.
- Good quality bean sprouts will have a curved shape and are not shiny because they are naturally grown.
- You should not choose abnormally long bean sprouts as they may have been soaked in chemicals, which will not be good for your health and your family’s health.
How to choose fresh quail eggs
- When buying, you should choose quail eggs that have shiny shells and are not cracked or broken.
- You can check the quality of the eggs by holding them up to the sunlight; you should buy those with clearly distinguishable white and yolk parts.
- At the same time, to ensure quality, you should buy quail eggs from reputable sellers that provide clear information on the usage period and origin.
