How to Choose Fresh Ingredients
How to choose fresh, quality beef
- Fresh, quality beef has a bright color, and there should be no unusual dark spots or bruises on the surface.
- Additionally, if you press lightly on the beef and it feels firm with good elasticity, then it is quality beef.
- Avoid buying beef that has a strong, foul odor or is slimy, as this is a sign that the beef has been stored too long and should not be eaten.
What is rice paddy herb? How to choose fresh and delicious rice paddy herb
- Rice paddy herb is also commonly known as rice paddy herb – this is a type of herb that is very good for health, has a mild spicy taste, slightly astringent, with a faint lemon scent, and is often used as a seasoning herb for dishes.
- Fresh and delicious rice paddy herb is young, not too old, has a bright green color, and the leaves are not wilted or overly bruised.
