How to choose fresh and delicious tofu skin
- Choose tofu skin pieces that are light ivory yellow, natural, as this type is not mixed with flour. Avoid choosing those with deep yellow color.
- Quality tofu skin usually has the characteristics of being soft, thin, not too tough, and has a fragrant smell.
- To make this dish, you should choose fresh tofu skin instead of dried or fried types.
- Additionally, to avoid buying low-quality tofu skin, you can make it at home.
How to choose chicken thigh mushrooms
- You should choose chicken thigh mushrooms with thick stems, white color, caps that are slightly brown, and not soft.
- Choose mushrooms that have a characteristic fragrant smell like almonds.
- Avoid choosing mushrooms that are bruised, soft, and show signs of mold or dampness, as these are spoiled mushrooms that will not be tasty or nutritious when cooked.
