How to choose fresh chicken breast
- You should choose chicken breast pieces that are pink in color and have a shiny surface as they are fresh and new, ensuring nutritional value.
- Fresh chicken breast will have elasticity and tender meat. When buying, you can test the elasticity of the chicken breast by pressing it with your hand. If the meat returns to its original state after you remove your hand, it has good elasticity.
- Absolutely do not buy if the chicken breast has an unusual smell and color, has strange spots, or is slimy.
How to choose fresh, juicy tomatoes
- You should closely observe the outside of the fruit, choose tomatoes that are of similar size, round shape, shiny skin, and not bruised.
- Ripened tomatoes naturally have a yellow-red color, not bright red. Avoid buying those with uneven colors.
- You should choose tomatoes with fresh stems that are still firmly attached to the fruit and have the characteristic aroma of tomatoes.
- Avoid choosing tomatoes soaked in chemicals, which will have a hard skin and no fragrant smell.
