How to choose fresh and quality beef tendons
- Fresh and delicious beef tendons are usually those with bright pink meat, while the tendons are white and do not show any unusual colors.
- Additionally, when pressing with your hand, the beef tendons should feel firm and elastic, not too soft or slimy.
- You should avoid buying beef tendons that are yellow and emit a strong foul smell, as these are spoiled tendons that can affect your health.
How to choose fresh and delicious carrots
- Fresh and delicious carrots are those with bright orange color, with no unusual black spots appearing on the surface.
- When pressing with your hand, the carrots should feel firm and noticeably sturdy, with no scratches or excessive softness.
- You should limit buying carrots with broken tops, no longer fresh and green, especially if they are oozing juice, as these are spoiled carrots that should not be eaten.

Remove the roots from the green onions and wash them along with a stalk of leeks. You can tie them neatly or cut them into pieces, and chop the leeks into small pieces.
Place a pot on the stove with 1 liter of water, then add all the prepared beef tendons, green onions, a slice of ginger, and a bowl of cooking wine (the same size as a rice bowl), blanch for about 5 – 7 minutes over high heat.
When you see the beef tendons firming up, turn off the heat, remove the beef tendons and place them in a bowl of cold water to soak for 3 minutes, then rinse again with clean water and let drain.
Finally, with 1 carrot, use a peeler to peel the skin, wash it clean, then cut it into bite-sized pieces.
