Meat preparation

After buying meat, Ms. Linh divides it into portions for each meal. She usually washes the meat 3 times: rinses with cold water, rinses with diluted salt and vinegar, and the final rinse with warm water.

Dry the meat thoroughly

While many people skip this step, Ms. Linh thinks it is necessary. The meat is dried thoroughly in a specialized container so that it does not get frozen all around. When defrosting, the meat will not release any water.

Divide into portions

Wrap each portion of meat in a layer of banana leaf or dong leaf and place it in a box. Each portion of meat is enough for one meal. Only defrost the portion you want to eat to avoid cross-contamination or affecting other parts of the fridge.

Seal the box and label it

In order not to have to search for the meat every time you cook rice, you need to write the type of meat and the date on a small label and stick it on the lid of the box.

After completely defrosting, the sausages are steamed over low heat, without letting the water boil, the sausages will be fragrant and tender as if they were fresh. On weekends, Ms. Linh rolls a bowl full of nem, then shallow fries them, divides them into small portions for each meal and freezes them. Whenever she wants to eat, she takes out one box at a time, very convenient and quick.

“Preparing and preparing food when you have free time may take time, but in return, it will save time in the kitchen every day,” Ms. Linh said.
