How to choose fresh corn
- To buy fresh corn, choose corn with bright green husks that are not dry and tightly wrap the kernels inside.
- Choose ears with smooth silk, still young, fresh husks, not wilted. The kernels inside should be plump, full, even, shiny, and straight.
- You should not choose corn with wilted leaves, yellowing, or dryness. Also, do not buy corn with sparse, small kernels as that indicates it has been harvested for a long time.
How to choose good quality salted eggs
- Choose eggs that do not have cracks on the surface; when gently shaken, you should feel a little water inside, with a thin, clear egg white, and a small, slightly sticky yolk that is pink is a sign of good eggs.
- To buy quality salted eggs, you should choose to buy from reputable stores or supermarkets. When purchasing, you should thoroughly check the place of production, expiration date, and production date printed on the packaging.
- Additionally, to ensure safety, you can also make salted eggs at home following the recipe shared below by TasteVN.
