How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh salmon fillet
- You should choose salmon that has a bright pink or orange color, and the flesh should be firm. When you press your finger into the flesh and it leaves a slight dent but quickly returns to its original state, it means the salmon is still fresh.
- When buying, you should carefully observe the surface of the fillet. If the fillet is dry, not moist or leaking strange fluids, and the fat veins on the fish are uniformly colored and shiny without dull spots or brown specks, then that is a fresh salmon fillet.
- Additionally, a fresh salmon fillet will have a distinctive pleasant smell, with no strange or foul odors.
- To buy a delicious fresh salmon fillet, you should purchase fish from supermarkets or reputable establishments. It is advisable to buy fish with a production date close to your purchase date to get the freshest and most nutritious fillet.

How to choose delicious, high-quality tuna
- For live fish: you should choose fish with shiny, clear eyes, clearly visible pupils, and bright red gills.
- When you press your hand on the skin or belly and feel good elasticity without sliminess, it means the fish is fresh.
- For frozen fish: if you choose to buy frozen tuna, you need to check the expiration date and should only use it within 1 month from the catch date to ensure the quality of the fish is the freshest.
- Those tuna that are not slimy, have clear eyes, not cloudy, slightly bulging, with pink-red gills, wet and shiny skin are considered good tuna.
- You should avoid choosing pieces of fish with thick layers of frost as they may have been stored for too long or thawed and refrozen.
How to choose ripe, delicious avocados
- You should choose avocados with small, fresh stems because they are just ripe and taste better.
- Fresh and delicious avocados usually have plump skin and show no signs of insect damage.
- You should choose green-skinned avocados with tiny speckles on the outside because they have a high fat content, making the flesh creamy and rich. When held, the avocado should feel heavy and firm, and when pressed gently, the flesh should be soft yet firm.
