How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh eggs
- When buying, you should choose fresh chicken eggs that have an even-colored shell, without any cracks or black spots. If you see black spots and the color of the egg is fading, these are eggs that have been stored for a long time.
- Additionally, when buying industrial eggs at the supermarket, you only need to choose reputable brands and select egg cartons that have a production date closest to the purchase date to get the freshest eggs!
- For those buying backyard chicken eggs at markets, a small tip to help you choose fresh backyard chicken eggs is to touch the eggshell with your hand. If you feel that the eggshell is rough and slightly textured, it is a fresh chicken egg; otherwise, if it feels smooth, the egg may not be fresh and will not taste good.
- Do not choose eggs that make a sound when you shake them lightly against your ear. Most of these eggs may be spoiled or may be eggs that a hen is currently incubating and forming a chick inside.
How to choose fresh kimchi
- To choose delicious kimchi jars, you should opt for products from Korean brands to enjoy the authentic and delicious taste!
- Additionally, when buying, pay attention to the expiration date printed on the product packaging. You should choose kimchi with a production date closest to the purchase date for better taste when preparing.
- Do not buy kimchi jars with torn packaging, fallen out, or not stored in a refrigerator.
- Moreover, you can make kimchi at home with very detailed instructions shared by TasteVN.
How to choose fresh and delicious ground pork
- If you buy pre-ground pork at the market, you should choose ground meat that has both lean and fatty parts, with fresh pink color, no bad smell, and not watery.
- If you want to grind meat at home using a meat grinder, you should buy pork shoulder or pork belly that has both lean meat and a little fat. Because when grinding this part of the meat, it will be soft, fatty, not dry like using lean meat, and also not too greasy due to too much fat.
- When choosing whole pieces of meat to grind, you should select those with bright pink color, press on the meat to feel its elasticity, firmness, and not dull in color.

Beat and fry the eggs
Crack 2 eggs into a bowl and then use chopsticks to beat them evenly for about 2 minutes to make the yolks and whites fluffy and well combined.
Next, you put a pan on the stove, add about 1 tablespoon of cooking oil, and then hold the handle of the pan to swirl it around so that the oil coats the entire surface of the pan.
Then, you pour the beaten egg mixture into the pan, gently stir to spread the egg mixture evenly and fry for about 2 minutes over medium heat until the eggs are cooked, then carefully take the eggs out onto a plate.
Tip:- To prevent the eggs from tearing when taking them out, you should use a non-stick pan when frying.
- When taking the eggs out, you just need to gently slide them out of the pan, do not use chopsticks or spoons to help!

Stir-frying meat and kimchi
Put a new pan on the stove, add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil, 1 tablespoon of chopped green onion, and 100g of minced pork into the pan. Then, use a spoon to stir well over medium heat for about 30 seconds until the meat is nearly cooked, then add 100g of finely chopped kimchi.
Stir well for about 1 minute until the kimchi and minced meat mix together, then season with 1/2 teaspoon of ground pepper. Mix well and stir-fry for another 2 minutes until the minced meat is fully cooked and absorbs the ground pepper, then turn off the heat.
