Bought the water, after washing it, soak it in cold water to make it firmer and crispier. When you're almost ready to eat, take the water out of the water and let it drain. Don't take it out too early or it will shrink and not be crispy. If you can't eat it all, people still soak it in water and store it in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.

Side dishes can be herbs, bananas, star fruit, and thinly sliced green mango. You can eat it with boiled dishes such as pig's feet, tongue, ears, and pork belly to make the dish more rich. However, two important ingredients are indispensable: thinly sliced fresh figs and the typical mint leaves only found in Hue. Mix shrimp paste with crushed garlic and chili, add a little monosodium glutamate, sugar, squeeze a piece of lemon, stir well until the mixture dissolves and resembles candy, and the dish is complete.
