How to Choose Fresh Ingredients
How to Choose Fresh Mackerel
- You should choose mackerel with clear, bright eyes that are slightly bulging, and their corneas should be elastic.
- Opt for mackerel with red-pink gills, and when you touch the fish’s flesh, it should feel firm and elastic.
- Avoid buying mackerel that feels slimy to the touch or leaves an indentation when pressed.

How to Choose Good Tomatoes
- Fresh and delicious tomatoes are those with bright red skin, uniform color, plump, intact, and not scratched.
- Choose tomatoes that have a mild fragrant smell, with fresh green stems firmly attached to the fruit, and when cut open, the seeds should be yellow.
- Avoid buying tomatoes that have green seeds, no fragrant smell, or wilted stems as these are low-quality tomatoes.
