Tips on choosing vegetables 1. When buying peppers, look for straightness.
There are three types of peppers sold in the market: very spicy, mildly spicy and not spicy. We can judge the taste of the pepper by looking at the shape of the pepper.
Chili peppers that are as curved as the moon are generally spicier, straight chili peppers are slightly spicier, and persimmon-shaped bell peppers are sweet and crunchy.
2. When buying celery, look at the leaf body.
There are four types of celery: green celery, yellow celery, beautiful celery and white celery. When buying celery, we should first look at the leaves. Do not buy celery with dark green leaves. This color indicates that the celery lacks water and will taste very old;
Look at the leaves. The leaves of celery that have been stored for a relatively short time are straight, while the leaves of celery with soft and yellow leaves are stored for too long and are about to spoil.
