How to choose fresh and delicious ingredients
How to choose fresh sweet potatoes
- Depending on your preference, you can choose white sweet potatoes, purple sweet potatoes, or honey sweet potatoes for today’s dish!
- For white sweet potatoes, you should look for those with an off-white skin; purple sweet potatoes will have a purple skin with a hint of light gray, while fresh honey sweet potatoes will have a dark yellow skin, slightly brownish.
- Additionally, quality sweet potatoes will be round or elongated, especially the waist should not be indented. Pressing them with your hand should feel that they are not too hard.
- You should limit buying sweet potatoes with too many chipping skins, even those that are bruised and have too many spots, as this is a sign that the sweet potatoes have gone bad due to being stored for too long.
How to choose quality black sesame seeds
- Quality black sesame seeds are usually those that are black, shiny, and do not have a rough texture or any unusual tiny spots on the surface.
- Observe that the black sesame seeds are uniform in size, without significant differences in size.
- You should limit buying black sesame seeds that show signs of mold, especially if they emit a strong foul odor, as this indicates that the black sesame seeds have gone bad and should not be used.
