How to choose fresh green bananas
Green bananas, also known as astringent bananas, are a familiar ingredient in salads and rolls... thanks to their distinctive flavor that makes the dish more appealing. You should choose bananas with a dark green, shiny, evenly curved skin, without unusual spots.
When holding a banana, it feels firm, the banana flesh is not too mushy, when smelling it you can feel the natural aroma, then it is a delicious, quality banana.
Avoid buying bananas with uneven, patchy skin, unusual black spots, pungent odor, and mushy flesh because these bananas may have been treated with chemicals.

How to make duck salad with Vietnamese coriander and green banana (duck salad with crushed mint)
Prepare duck meat
After buying the duck meat, wash it with water and then chop it into pieces for easy processing. Then, put the duck meat in a bowl of water, then add 30ml of white wine and a little crushed ginger to soak to remove the odor for about 10 - 15 minutes.
Next, you clean the duck meat thoroughly one more time, then rinse it with water and let it dry. Put the pot on the stove, put the prepared duck in the pot, cover with water, add a few slices of ginger, 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of MSG, then cover and simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes until the water in the pot boils, then reduce the heat and simmer the duck for another 20 minutes to make the duck meat softer.
Prepare vegetables
First, prepare 3 cups of water with 1/2 teaspoon of salt dissolved in each cup. Peel the green bananas and cut them into bite-sized pieces, about 2 - 4mm thick.
Peel the duck meat to make salad.
After cutting, soak the bananas in the remaining bowl of diluted salt water to prevent them from turning brown and to reduce their characteristic pungent smell. Wash the carrots, shred them into medium-length strips, then soak them in the bowl of salt water.
Prepare the remaining ingredients
After you buy the onions, wash them, peel them, cut them into wedges, and soak them in 1 cup of diluted salt water to reduce the pungent taste.
Peel the remaining ginger, then cut into strips. Wash the lemongrass, cut into small pieces. Pick off the wilted leaves of the Vietnamese coriander, then wash and chop finely to prepare for the salad.
Rinse garlic and chili with water, then peel and mince garlic. Cut chili into thin slices.
