How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose good pig intestines
- Good pig intestines are those with small intestinal tubes, thick surface, and pinkish-white color.
- Choose intestines that, when pressed, release a milky white liquid, indicating they are freshly slaughtered and still fresh.
- Buy intestines that still have elasticity when pressed and have no strange odors.
- Do not buy pig intestines with large intestinal tubes, and the outer skin has a bluish-white color as they are from older pigs and will taste bitter and not good.
- Do not choose intestines that have dark liquid inside, have strange smells, or are slimy.

How to choose good pickled shallots

- Good pickled shallots have white skin, bright color, and a slightly pungent smell when sniffed.
- To make the dish more aesthetically pleasing, you should select pickled shallots with clearly defined waist and uniform sizes.
- Avoid buying pickled shallots that are bruised, have soft or mushy skin as these are spoiled shallots.
