After the Tet holiday, most of the family's refrigerators store a lot of leftover food. If stored for too long, food will lose its nutrients, spoil and easily produce harmful bacteria.
Therefore, housewives should consider quickly resolving leftover food during Tet, avoiding storing it in the refrigerator for too long.
Banh chung, banh tet
Banh chung and banh tet are foods that are always surplus during Tet. If frozen or stored in the cooling compartment, the sticky rice will become hard and lose its chewy aroma. Especially humid weather can easily cause mold to multiply from the leaves to the inside of the cake. Prioritize solving banh chung and banh te early to ensure deliciousness and nutrition. Cut them thinly and fry until crispy or cook minced meat porridge to change the taste for the family.
Gio cha
Vietnamese sausage or cinnamon sausage will have a very short shelf life. When left in the refrigerator for a long time, the sausage surface is very prone to darkening and slimeing. To ensure safety and health for the family, the excess sausage should be sliced and then braised with pepper or braised in salty and sweet fish sauce. This method will help the dish become richer and is very suitable for eating hot rice.
Pickled onions, pickled vegetables
Pickled onions are a side dish to help relieve boredom in the Tet feast. However, this is a naturally fermented food, so it cannot be left for too long. If soaked for many days, the water will become sour or white scum will cause abdominal pain, affecting the digestive tract. Housewives should resolve this dish early to ensure health safety.
Fruits on the five-fruit tray
Five-fruit fruit trays for display on the altar will begin to wilt, sponge and lose natural vitamins over time. Resolve it immediately to enjoy the full freshness, or peel off the skin and squeeze out the juice to drink. Making smoothies or making fruit mixed with yogurt is a refreshing and refreshing way, very good for the body after days of eating a lot of protein.
