How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh shrimp
- Fresh shrimp are those with a transparent outer shell, smelling of seawater, with the tail curled together, and the legs and head still firmly attached to the body.
- Choose shrimp that have firm flesh, a slightly curved body, and show no signs of abnormal swelling.
- Avoid shrimp that are leaking water, have mushy flesh, and show signs of the head and legs being detached, or have an unusual smell. These are shrimp that have spoiled and will not taste good when cooked and can affect health.
How to choose fresh and delicious carrots
- Fresh and delicious carrots are those with a slender shape, medium size, smooth and shiny skin, and when held, they feel firm.
- It is advisable to choose carrots that have a natural orange color, with fresh green tops still firmly attached to the root.
- Avoid selecting carrots with wilted tops, odd shapes, or that feel mushy when pressed. Also, avoid very large carrots, as these tend to be older and fibrous, which will not yield tasty dishes when cooked.
