How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh chicken eggs
- You should choose chicken eggs that have an even color shell and a slightly rough surface; these are fresh, good quality eggs.
- When you bring the egg close to your ear and shake it lightly, if you don’t hear any sound, it means it’s a new egg; old eggs will make noise (indicating movement inside), and the louder the sound, the longer the egg has been stored.
- Do not buy eggs that are too shiny or have a pale shell as these are old eggs and not good.
How to choose fresh and delicious shrimp
- Choose shrimp with a transparent shell, uniform color, and the head and body of the shrimp firmly attached to each other.
- Fresh shrimp usually have their tails tightly curled together, and the shell joints on the shrimp’s body are flexible and not disjointed.
- Avoid choosing shrimp that are slimy, have legs that have turned black and are no longer firmly attached to the body, or have an unusual foul smell.
How to choose fresh and delicious pork
- Choose meat that is light pink or light red, with the fat being a slightly translucent white color. Additionally, you should choose meat with a bit of fat or a mix of fat and lean, so that it is not too greasy or dry when eaten.
- Fresh and delicious pork will have good elasticity when pressed with your hand; once you withdraw your hand, the meat returns to its original shape, and there are no dents on the surface of the meat.
- You should not choose meat that is pale in color, has a fishy smell, or is slimy because these are signs of spoiled or not fresh meat.
- Moreover, you should choose pork with a clear origin from reputable, quality places in supermarkets, clean food stores, or order from e-commerce sites like bachhoaxanh.com.

Prepare the ingredients
To reduce the unpleasant smell of pork, rub a spoon of salt onto the piece of meat for about 5 – 7 minutes and rinse it with clean water 2 – 3 times, then take it out and let it drain.
To eliminate the fishy smell of shrimp, dissolve 1 teaspoon of salt in 300ml of water, soak the shrimp for about 5 – 10 minutes, and then rinse thoroughly 2 – 3 times with water. After that, take the shrimp out to drain and peel off the head and shell.
Next, place the meat on a cutting board, cut it into small pieces, and mince it finely. Once the meat is minced, continue to mince the shrimp.
Chop off the roots of the green onions, wash them clean, and then chop them finely.
