How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh strawberries
- Choose large, bright red strawberries that are plump and still have their green stems intact.
- Do not choose overripe strawberries as their insides may be dry and hollow.
- Avoid selecting strawberries that are dull in color, misshapen, or spoiled. Additionally, those with greenish skins and many spots should not be bought as strawberries will not ripen after being picked.

How to choose fresh and delicious kiwi
- Choose fruits with a fuzzy outer skin, not misshapen and without signs of insect bites or bruises.
- When touching the stem of the fruit, if it feels soft, then the fruit is ripe and sweet. Or if the fruit is still hard, it means it is not ripe and will be sour, you should not buy it.
How to choose fresh and delicious bananas
- It is best to choose a bunch of bananas with uneven ripeness (some yellow, some green) and with dark or deep pink spots.
- Do not choose those that are uniformly ripe with dark yellow skin.
- Naturally ripened bananas will have a yellow stem and body. If the stem is green but the fruit is uniformly yellow, it has definitely been soaked in chemicals.
- Naturally ripened bananas will have a fragrant smell and natural sweetness, soft all over. In contrast, chemically treated bananas will be somewhat crunchy, hard, and have astringent and sour tastes.
What is chia seed? How to choose quality chia seeds
- Chia seeds are small, flat oval seeds that come in white, brown, gray, and black colors; when exposed to water, they absorb it and form a gelatinous layer around the seed.
- Chia seeds are used in beverage preparation or as ingredients for certain dishes with high nutritional content, providing many wonderful health benefits such as: cardiovascular health, skin beauty, long hair, osteoporosis prevention, and being good for pregnant women,…
- You should choose chia seeds that are uniformly sized, light brown in color, shiny, and have a distinctive aroma.
- Avoid purchasing seeds that are uneven in color, have a rancid oil smell or unpleasant odor, or have different colors. This may indicate that they have been stored for too long, which is not good for health when processed.
- Chia seeds are not grown in Vietnam, so you can find this type of seed at supermarkets, reputable food stores, specialty foreign goods shops, or on e-commerce websites.
