How to choose fresh and delicious ingredients
How to choose good quality beef shank
- Good beef shank is characterized by pieces that have bright pink meat, with natural cuts visible and not much bone fragments.
- Typically, quality beef shank comes from the front legs, as they are more active, resulting in firmer meat and more tender tendons.
- It is advisable to avoid purchasing beef shank that has unusual dark bruises on the surface of the meat or is slimy, as these indicate that the beef shank has been stored too long and should not be consumed.
How to choose good quality black beans
- Good black beans are those with a shiny, smooth black outer skin, and the beans are of uniform size without significant differences.
- Pressing them with your hand should reveal that the beans have a distinct hardness, not too soft or easily crushed, and especially not hollow inside.
- It is advisable to avoid buying overly rough black beans, especially those that emit a musty or unusual odor, as these are spoiled black beans.

Prepare the Ingredients
First, with 2kg of beef trotters you bought, rub some salt over the entire surface of the meat for 3 – 5 minutes, then use a knife to scrape off the hair, wash it several times with water until clean, drain, and cut into bite-sized pieces.
For the black beans, put them in a bowl with 100ml of water and soak for about 20 – 30 minutes, then rinse again with clean water, and drain. Rinse the white rice with clean water 1 – 2 times, then drain.
Remove the stem from the pandan leaves, wash them directly under running water to remove any dirt, and let them drain. Finally, wash the ginger, drain it, and cut it into small pieces.
