How to choose fresh and delicious ingredients
How to choose fresh mushrooms
- When buying, you should prioritize selecting mushrooms that have just been picked, with little dirt on the stem, which are usually sold at traditional markets.
- Choose mushrooms that have a distinctive aroma, are not bruised, leaking water, or mushy when touched.
- Do not buy mushrooms that have a strange smell or yellow color, as these mushrooms have spoiled and cannot be used.
- To make the dish more attractive and delicious, you can use any type of mushroom that you and your family love, such as: reishi mushrooms, chicken leg mushrooms, oyster mushrooms,…
How to choose good tofu, without gypsum
- Good tofu without gypsum will have an ivory white color, when picked up it feels light, smooth, and has a delicious soybean aroma.
- Do not choose tofu pieces that show signs of yellowing, feel heavy when picked up, and have a lime smell, as these pieces contain gypsum, which is very harmful to health.
- For safety, you should buy tofu from reputable tofu production stores or you can make tofu at home with simple instructions from TasteVN.
How to choose fresh vegetarian sausage
- You should prioritize buying from reputable food stores to ensure clear origins, quality, and food ingredients.
- When buying, pay attention to the expiration date and the ingredient list of the sausage to ensure that you are purchasing the right quality vegetarian sausage.
- Additionally, you can also make vegetarian sausage at home to ensure food hygiene and safety with instructions from TasteVN.
