How to choose delicious ingredients
How to choose crispy dried bamboo shoots
- Delicious dried bamboo shoots have a light yellow color and a shiny appearance. They retain the characteristic aroma, with wide and thick flesh, and feel dry to the touch, can be easily broken.
- Choose bamboo shoots with a uniform color, short segments, and no fibers. Pick more of the tips as they will be softer and tastier when cooked compared to the base.
- Bamboo shoots treated with sulfur have an overly glossy color or too dark, and have a strange smell (a pungent smell). Avoid purchasing bamboo shoots with mold spots, those that feel soft or can be easily broken.
- Only buy dried bamboo shoots that are stored in plastic bags with labels, with a clear address and origin.
How to choose fresh carrots
- Fresh carrots will have a characteristic dark orange color, with bright skin. The skin is smooth, not cracked, and feels firm in hand. The top is still fresh and green, not damaged or wilting.
- You should choose long, slender carrots of moderate size, not too large with few eyes on the body.
- Avoid buying those with rotten tops and crooked bodies. These are old carrots and difficult to prepare.
- Do not buy those that are wormy or cracked, or have a strange smell.
How to choose delicious and crispy wood ear mushrooms
- In this dish, you can use either white or black wood ear mushrooms for preparation.
- To choose good wood ear mushrooms, opt for those with large ears, thick caps, and few small stems.
- The top of the mushroom should have a dark amber color, slightly shiny, while the underside should be coffee with milk color.
- If the mushrooms have white mold, absolutely do not buy them.
How to choose quality delicious Vietnamese pork sausage
- Good Vietnamese pork sausage should have a slightly pinkish-white color when cut, with many small holes on the surface, appearing smooth and slightly moist.
- If the sausage is too crumbly, lacks aroma, and has no holes on the surface, it means it has been mixed with flour; on the other hand, if the sausage is unusually crispy, chewy, and smooth, it has been adulterated with borax during processing.
- If you have time and want to ensure quality, you can make Vietnamese pork sausage at home using a recipe from TasteVN.
