How to choose fresh chicken hearts
- You should choose chicken hearts that are brightly colored, bright red, and avoid those that are black or dark red.
- Select chicken hearts that are of moderate size, not too large, and feel good elasticity when touched, with no sliminess on your fingertips, and a smooth surface.
- You can buy chicken hearts at reputable food stores to ensure quality, and check the packaging to confirm production information and expiration date.
- If buying chicken hearts at a traditional market, it is best to go early in the morning when the chickens have just been slaughtered, so the hearts will be fresher.
How to choose fresh and delicious loofah
- Good loofah fruits, when held, will feel heavy; you can observe that the loofah stem is still fresh and there are no black spots on the skin.
- Do not choose fruits that feel light when lifted because those are hollow, spongy fruits that will reduce the quality of the dish.
- Do not buy loofah fruits that feel soft, have damaged skin, or have withered stems. These may be loofah fruits that have been stored too long or damaged during transportation.
