How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh, non-mealy apples
- When buying, you should pay attention to the color of the apples. Good apples will have a uniform dark red color, the redder the apple, the sweeter the flesh.
- In particular, those apples with tiny white spots will be even sweeter.
- You can choose good apples by picking them up and feeling their firmness, they should not be soft or mushy, and when you lightly tap on the apple, it should produce a clear sound.
- You should avoid buying apples with broken stems or wilted stems. This is a sign of long storage, and the apples are no longer fresh.
- Avoid choosing apples with mottled green colors. Do not buy apples that are bruised, scratched, or have black spots on their bodies as those apples will spoil quickly.
How to choose delicious, non-stringy avocados
- You should choose to buy butter avocados, as this type is delicious and has less fiber than regular avocados. The outer skin of butter avocados is green with yellow speckles.
- Choose avocados with small stems that are still fresh, as these are just ripe, not overripe. The avocado should feel firm in your hand, with taut, plump skin, and no signs of blackening, spots, or hollows.
- For purple avocados, you should avoid buying those that make a noticeable sound when shaken, as the flesh inside will be less and thinner.
- Do not buy too many avocados to keep for 1 – 2 days before using, because even if you store them in the fridge, the flavor won’t be as fragrant as originally.

Prepare the ingredients
Use a knife to cut the dragon fruit lengthwise into 4 parts, peel, and cut into cubes. After buying, wash the apple thoroughly without peeling it, then cut out the apple flesh and chop it like the dragon fruit.
Cut the avocado in half lengthwise and remove the pit. Then, continue to cut the avocado into small pieces for easy peeling. After peeling, cut the avocado into bite-sized cubes.
Finally, combine all the fruits into one plate and place it in the refrigerator’s cool compartment.
