How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh tomatoes
- When buying, choose tomatoes that are bright red, firm to the touch.
- Avoid selecting soft tomatoes as they spoil quickly and may have bruises inside.
- Choose tomatoes with fresh green stems that are still tightly attached to the fruit.
How to choose fresh and delicious broccoli
- For broccoli, you should choose ones that have a deep green color, with a firm stem that is not soft or limp.
- You should select broccoli with a thick, compact surface, without many gaps.
- Avoid choosing broccoli with yellowing flowers.
How to choose fresh and delicious button mushrooms
- For button mushrooms, you should choose mushrooms that have been harvested within twelve hours; the longer they sit, the less tasty they become.
- Choose mushrooms with white stems, short stems, and round caps.
- Select medium-sized mushrooms that feel firm in your hand and have a characteristic pleasant smell.
- Avoid buying button mushrooms that have turned ivory or have dark spots… as they are usually older, not tasty, or have spoiled.
How to choose fresh and delicious smoked meat
- When buying smoked meat, choose types that have a bright pink color, with white fat marbling, and are not slimy.
- Choose pieces of meat that have a distinctive pleasant aroma, without any sour or strange off smells.
- In particular, you need to carefully check the expiration date printed on the packaging, as meat has a shelf life of 2 weeks to 8 months.
