The quality of the ingredients affects the final result of the dish, so it is important to be able to choose the right products. In this chapter, we’ll cover the basics of choosing the right ingredients to help you create delicious, healthy meals.
Freshness of ingredients
Fresh ingredients are the basis of delicious dishes. When choosing fruits, vegetables, meat and fish, pay attention to their appearance, smell and texture.

Seasonality
Buy produce in season when it is at its peak of freshness and flavor. Fruits and vegetables grown in season have more flavor and nutrition. Remember that seasonal products are also usually available at lower prices, so choose those first.
Organic products
Organic foods are grown without the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides or growth hormones, making them safer and healthier. When purchasing fruits, vegetables, meat and dairy products, look for organic or non-GMO labels. Such products usually have a richer taste and higher nutritional properties.
Regional products
Whenever possible, choose regional foods that are grown or produced in your region. They usually taste fresher because they take less time to ship and store. By supporting local producers, you also help grow the local economy and reduce the environmental impact of food transportation.
Package
Pay attention to product packaging. It must be intact and undamaged, without visible signs of contamination or loss of integrity. When purchasing dairy products, eggs, meat and fish, pay attention to expiration dates and storage conditions to avoid purchasing spoiled products.
