How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh salmon
- You should choose salmon that has a bright pink or orange color; when you touch it, the flesh should have good elasticity.
- When buying fish, you should closely observe the surface of the salmon piece. If the fish piece is dry, not wet or leaking strange fluids, and the fat lines on the fish are evenly colored without dullness or brown spots, then you should buy it because that is fresh salmon fillet.
- Additionally, you should choose salmon fillets that have a distinctive aroma, without strange or rancid smells.
How to choose fresh sweet potatoes
- To choose fresh sweet potatoes, you should prioritize those that are of moderate size and feel heavy in your hand.
- You should buy sweet potatoes that have intact skin, not scratched or bruised, and feel firm when pressed gently.
- Avoid buying overly large sweet potatoes or those with a narrow waist or black spots on the body, as these are often wormy and fibrous rather than sweet and tender.

Prepare the ingredients
First, wash the sticky rice and regular rice thoroughly and let it drain.
Fillet the salmon after purchasing, rinse it briefly with water, and soak it in 250ml of unsweetened milk for about 20 – 30 minutes.
Wash the green onion roots and ginger, chop them finely, and set them aside. The green parts of the green onion and dill should also be washed and chopped finely.
Finally, peel the sweet potatoes, wash them clean, and cut them into small cubes for easy eating.

Marinate the salmon
After washing the salmon with warm water, cut the fish into bite-sized pieces.
Next, marinate the fish with 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of seasoning powder, 1 teaspoon of ground pepper, and a little cooking oil, then mix well to allow the fish to absorb the spices.
