How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh, high-quality strawberries
- Fresh strawberries will have a characteristic aroma, a plump, shiny skin, and an even red color.
- You should choose strawberries with intact and fresh green caps, plump fruits without any dents or defects.
- For Vietnamese strawberry varieties, you should choose the smaller fruits as they are fragrant strawberries, which will be sweet and have a characteristic aroma. Avoid buying large and heavy strawberries as they are stone strawberries, which will taste sour and be hollow inside, lacking the characteristic fragrance.
- Do not buy strawberries that are too dark red as they are overripe, and the insides may be dry, or those with bruises and many black spots due to being stored for too long.
Distinguishing between whipping and heavy cream
- The fundamental difference between heavy cream and whipping cream lies in their fat content and the additional components within.
- Heavy cream is used to produce whipping cream. Heavy cream has a firmer texture compared to whipping cream, so it is often used to create texture and whip cream into peaks.
- Whipping cream has a fat content of 30 – 36% and contains no sugar, while heavy cream has a higher fat content, ranging from 36 – 40%.
