How to choose fresh and delicious ingredients
How to choose fresh and delicious pork
- About color: Choose pork that has a light pink or light red color, with fat that is slightly translucent and off-white as it indicates good meat. Avoid choosing meat with unusual colors, pale colors, or very dark colors.
- About smell: When smelling, if it is good meat, it will have the characteristic aroma of meat. Do not buy meat that has a strong or unpleasant odor.
- About elasticity: Use your hand to press the piece of meat; if it is elastic, firm, not too hard or too mushy, and there is no slimy liquid coming out, you should choose it.
- About the layer of fat and skin: It is best to choose pork pieces that have distinct meat and fat. However, they should be tightly connected, and when touched, they should feel difficult to separate.
How to choose delicious fresh chili
- You should choose chilies with a shiny, beautiful skin and bright red color. The stem should still be tightly attached to the chili.
- Avoid buying chilies that do not have stems. Absolutely do not buy chilies showing signs of spoilage, wilting, or infestation.
How to choose delicious garlic
- You should choose large, firm garlic bulbs with no signs of pests.
- Check the outer skin at the top of the garlic bulb; fresh garlic will have intact skin and a slightly white color.
- If the cloves of garlic are not wrinkled and not too dry, it indicates that the garlic is still fresh and should be bought.
- Avoid buying misshapen or deformed garlic bulbs, or those with gray skin, as these are usually of poor quality.
