Tips for choosing fresh and good-quality ingredients

Choosing eggs

Choose eggs with thick shells and a thin layer of bloom around them. The eggs with medium size are usually fresher than the ones that are too thin or too big. Eggs with smooth and shiny shells, with a slight crack-like feeling, are usually old eggs and should not be chosen.

Choosing carrots

Choose carrots of medium size, with smooth and shiny skins, and long and tapered shapes. The green leaves should still be fresh, tightly attached to the stem, and have a dark color. When held in hand, they should feel firm and when touched, they should feel hard.

Choosing snow peas
