How to Choose Fresh and Delicious Water Spinach
- To select good water spinach, choose young stems with plenty of leaves and a fresh green color to ensure they are crispy and fragrant when cooked.
- Choose water spinach with a thick, fluffy floating part and a light white color for better cooking quality.
- Avoid choosing water spinach that is bruised or has yellow or black spots as this indicates old vegetables.
- Avoid purchasing water spinach with few leaves or dark green color as this indicates the vegetables are mature, which will reduce the quality of the dish when cooked.
