How to choose fresh ingredients

How to choose fresh goose liver

• You should choose goose liver that has a moderate weight; if it is too large, it often contains a lot of fat or water, which can affect the quality of the dish when cooked.
• Fresh and good-quality goose liver will have a light yellowish color, an even surface, and when pressed with your hand, it should have a slight indentation.
• You should avoid buying parts of goose liver that have many bruises on the surface and emit an unusual foul smell.

How to choose fresh strawberries

• Based on size, you should buy large strawberries, as they tend to be less sour than smaller ones.
• Fresh strawberries should have an even red color, with green stems and the seeds still firmly attached to the fruit.
• Avoid buying strawberries that are bruised, rotten, or have brown spots, as these are fruits that have been stored for too long and are starting to spoil.

How to choose good pistachios

• Good pistachios will have a light yellow to light brown or dark brown color.
• Choose pistachios that are large, long, and have naturally opened shells; when you touch the shell, it should feel slightly rough.
• Avoid buying pistachios that are pure white with a shiny, eye-catching shell.
