How to choose fresh cabbage
- Fresh cabbage has a round shape, not deformed, with a light green color, the head is thick, closed, and especially the stem is still fresh green, not wilted.
- Additionally, when holding it, you will feel that the cabbage is firm, and the leaves are tightly rolled together, not separated.
- You should avoid buying cabbage with yellowing leaves, brown stems, or overly bruised, as this indicates that the cabbage is spoiled and will not taste good.
How to choose fresh minced pork
- Fresh minced pork is bright pink in color, with white fat, not turning yellow or showing unusual dark spots.
- When you press it with your hand, you can clearly feel that the meat has good elasticity and firmness, and especially it should not be slimy.
- You should limit buying minced pork that has uneven colors, or even emits a strong foul smell, as this indicates that the meat is spoiled due to being kept for too long, and eating it will not be good for your health.
- To ensure the deliciousness of the dish, you can also buy pork in whole pieces and then use a meat grinder to mince it or follow the simple minced meat instructions below from TasteVN.
