How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh lemons
- Lemons that are juicy, small, with thin, shiny skin. When you touch the lemon’s skin, it feels smooth, not rough.
- Pressing on the lemon feels soft, and a gentle press releases essential oils with a pleasant lemon scent.
How to choose fresh and delicious strawberries
- Choose large, bright red strawberries that are plump and still have their green caps and fresh leaves.
- In addition, you should choose strawberries of moderate size, not too big or too small, and they should have a faint aroma.
- Avoid choosing overripe strawberries as the insides may be dry and hollow. Additionally, avoid choosing strawberries that are dull in color, misshapen, or spoiled. Strawberries with green skin and many spots should not be purchased as they will not ripen after being picked.
