How to Choose Fresh Ingredients
How to choose fresh water spinach
- Fresh water spinach has long, slender stems, about the size of a chopstick, with small tips that look a bit firm.
- Choose stems that are light green, with fresh leaves that are not bruised or damaged.
- In particular, you can test the freshness of the spinach by breaking off a tip; if you see a thin sap flowing out, it means the water spinach is still fresh, and you should buy it.
- Avoid choosing water spinach that is too thick, has a dark green color, and has large, long leaves, as they may be old or treated with chemicals, making them not tasty and unhealthy.

How to choose fresh and delicious fragrant gourd
- You should choose fragrant gourd that feels heavy in your hand, has a dark green skin, and has a natural fragrant smell when sniffed.
- Prioritize buying long, evenly sized gourds; small or medium-sized ones that are still young will taste better.
- Do not choose gourds that are too old, with many black spots on the surface and scratches, or that are rotten.
