How to Choose Fresh Ingredients
How to choose fresh salmon
- Fresh salmon fillets should have bright pink or orange flesh. If the flesh has turned darker, it indicates spoiled fish, which should not be bought.
- When pressing your finger into the flesh of the fish, if it leaves a dent but quickly returns to its original state, the fish has good elasticity and is still fresh.
- The surface of the fish should be dry, not moist or leaking strange fluids, and have a characteristic pleasant smell, without any unusual foul odors.
- The fat lines on the fish should be uniformly colored and bright, not dull or with brown spots, indicating fresh fish.
How to choose fresh and delicious oranges
- Choose oranges that have bright colors, feel smooth and shiny, and release essential oil when gently squeezed.
- Good oranges will have a round and balanced shape, not deformed, and feel heavy and solid when held.
- The orange stem should be fresh, tightly attached to the fruit, and slightly indented, not easily broken off when touched.
- Avoid choosing oranges with wrinkled skin, uneven colors, brown spots, or signs of bruising.
