How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose ripe jackfruit correctly
- You should choose round jackfruits without any indentations, concave spots, or bulges, as these may indicate that the jackfruit has been eaten by pests, is hard, or has a lot of fibers.
- Delicious young jackfruits are fresh, with a sticky stem, green skin, firm to the touch, and the fibers inside are still white, with segments slightly turning yellow.
- You should not buy jackfruits showing signs of pest damage, with no sap oozing from the stem, large but light fruits.
How to choose fresh pork
- Choose pieces of meat that are light pink or light red, with the fat being translucent white with a slight ivory hue. When cut, the meat fibers should slightly retract, the surface should be dry, elastic, and the skin soft.
- Good pork will have a distinct texture of meat and fat but firmly attached to each other, not mushy, and no unusual indentations on the surface.
- Do not buy if the meat is slimy, has pale or excessively dark color, smells foul, and has yellowish liquid oozing out, with unusual red, green, or purple spots on the surface.
