How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh pork
- Fresh pork has bright pink meat, with white fat that does not turn yellow, and there are no unusual dark bruises on the surface.
- When you press gently on the meat, it should feel firm and have moderate elasticity, not too soft and especially not slimy.
- You should avoid buying pork that is mushy and has a strong rotten smell as it indicates that the meat has spoiled due to being kept for too long.
How to choose good, quality honey
- Good honey, when bought and placed in the cool compartment of the refrigerator for 7 – 24 hours, if taken out and still has the stickiness and smoothness as initially, then that is real honey.
- Additionally, another quick way to test honey is to pour honey into a bowl, then dip a fresh green onion into it; if you see the onion gradually wilting after a while, then that is quality honey.
- Moreover, when you drop a few drops of honey into water, pure honey will immediately sink to the bottom of the glass, while if it dissolves easily, that is fake honey.
- You can find honey for sale at markets, supermarkets, or stores specializing in honey.
- Wild honey prices range from 700,000 – 1,000,000 VND/ 1 liter, while farmed honey ranges from 200,000 – 500,000 VND/ 1 liter (prices updated in December 2021).
