In addition to depending on the preferences of the homeowner, according to architect Vo The Duy (CTA | Creative Architects), homeowners need to pay attention to the following three factors: The first step is the selection of plant varieties Most urban houses are narrow tube townhouses, the area for the garden is also limited, so choose tree varieties with pile roots (the roots are not too massive, less horizontal growth affects the structure of the building). Plants often lose their leaves and many people, although they like nature, are afraid to sweep leaves because of their busy schedule. Meanwhile, sweeping leaves is also a tree care job, people who love taking care of trees, nature will love this job. However, when the homeowner does not have much time, it is still possible to grow houseplants with varieties of plants with few leaves or less falling or falling seasonally such as peach fairy, sesame buds, Taiwanese eagle … Depending on the preferences and nature of the project, homeowners can choose tree varieties for shade, fruit trees, beautiful flowering trees, shrubs, etc. Therefore, homeowners need to pay attention to coordinate for harmony, have parents. Reasonable arrangement, avoid planting too many varieties causing confusion and confusion. For example, a large tree with beautiful shape or beautiful flowers like star fruit and longan needs space and space to be able to exploit the beauty, avoid planting many varieties of trees that are crowded or obscured. The accompanying plants should be low trees, not too prominent in color or just gravel to clean the area below the tree. If you mix shrubs, you need to choose 3-4 varieties, don’t choose too many or you will get confused. Priority is given to varieties with beautiful leaves, larger size to make the main point, the rest are varieties with small leaves or different leaf shapes and colors to honor the main tree. Arrange trees and shrubs in Wall house (CTA|Creative Architects). The second is the planting location The location should be well-lit, ventilated and spaced enough to ensure the growth needs of the tree as well as a place with a good location. The planting locations are usually arranged in the front, backyard or atrium, skylight to meet the above requirements as well as increase the aesthetics of the building. In addition, for large plants, it is required to avoid positions such as beams and large beams because of structural safety factors. In addition, homeowners need to have techniques for planting planting holes to avoid the influence of tree roots on the construction. The requirements for waterproofing and drainage for the plant location also need to be considered when intending to grow plants indoors and need professional advice to ensure technical factors. Finally, homeowners need to pay attention to maintenance Trees need to be cared for and easily replaced if damaged or dead or the owner’s needs. Besides good drainage, the plant also needs to be watered and fertilized regularly. From maintenance requirements, the location of plants may have to be changed to suit reality. Homeowners should install a smart automatic irrigation system to reduce watering and bathing while still enjoying the lush nature in the house.

Clam soup cooked with star fruit Meanwhile, reading through many sour and spicy soup recipes – a simple Chinese style, only one recipe emerges “Tran Giang incense” – Tran Giang fragrant vinegar. Thai spicy and sour soup recipes are filled with a sour substance tom yum, in which the only acidic ingredient is lemon juice. Le Nguyen Thuc Quyen, a longtime friend of America, commented: “Thai people are also very acidic. Cookbooks written in English are mainly aimed at the US market, so they write about the basics that are easy to make, using the basic ingredients that can be found in American supermarkets. ” It makes sense! Want to know more about that, you must go look in their culinary history.
Among the sour soups I’ve tried, my favorite is the star fruit soup. Starfruit cooked with sea fish or shellfish, snails for a mild, sour taste. So sour enough that we can drink all the water a few breaths without having time to eat the clams and fish cooked with starfruit in a bowl of soup. Starfruit is an easy ingredient to find. But Saigon is very ironic. One day I bought a bunch of small clam, went to find star fruit, I didn’t have. One day, I bought four star fruit fruits, priced at a total of 5,000, so I bought clam, so I cooked it with Goby. Called temporary, not equal to cooking clam. Shellfish really has martial arts, does not eat anything, just lies day after month to absorb water to filter microorganisms, but live, tastes better than fish. Hearing about star fruit soup, Mr. Nguyen Epal, who lives in Can Tho, specializes in supplying Hue products to the Western restaurant, supported his version: “The sweet and sour taste of starfruit cook with dishes Tam Giang broken fish and fish sauce with copper fish sauce made from pinfish, adding a few green siamese chili fruit is indescribably delicious. ” That country probe is really famous. Hue people also cast pancakes with this fish! Once invited to eat vermicelli, I tasted the sour taste of the fruit for the first time, clearly not knowing what the sour taste of the fruit was. Nguyen Manh Toan, the chef cooking that dish, said: “It is the vertical fruit ordered outside of Hanoi. There is also a sale at Tien Thinh restaurant next to pho Hoa. ” Along is sour fruit growing wild in the Northwest mountainous region, finding it more elaborate than star fruit. The sour substances in Vietnamese cuisine in the Northwest are vertical, there are also vegetarian fruits, sour ears. It’s hard to experience it all. Outsiders often cook sour soup with pork. Such as crocodile soup cooked with pork ribs and sour soup with green pineapple cooked with minced pork popular of Hanoi people. There is also a cooked chicken dish. People in the central and southern regions prefer chicken cooked with giang leaves. The sour taste of the giang leaves is “harsh” than the sour taste of vinegar, if we ignore the overdose of seasoning. Places with wineries like Go Vap and Cu Chi, have chicken dish cooked with wort. The West is famous for its sour chicken cooked with cork / cork, fruit / sensory leaf. These are the trees that grow wild in the river region. More sophisticatedly, they also cook with guava, to seek the flavor of guava. The process of collecting Vietnamese sour substances, with the significant contribution of Facebook friends. When I posted on my site, I found the number 20. When I put the pen to write the number to 29, I received via messenger a picture of the strange fruit, which looked like a Northwest mountain sour fruit. , and was asked “what fruit do you know?” Said probably ground fruit. Disappointment. Christine Le, living in Japan, explained: “That boat is from my hometown, planted in the ancestral land of Long Ho (now Vung Liem). Sour and delicious, I added my 20 acidic substances. ” You are speaking based on the amount I ask for more suggestions on Facebook. The next day, Facebook friends added: rock plum, mulberry mulberry, leaf beetle, tamarind leaves, healthy leaf, jackfruit leaves. Usually Central and Southern people, except for chicken, cook less sour soup with pork but cook with seafood. In part, they have a long coastline in the Central region and a lot of rivers and canals in the South, with rich products. The sour substance drowns out the fishy smell in part, honoring the umami (sweetness of meat) in half. Biochemist Vu The Thanh explained further: “Starfruit cooked with clams may be due to the pH helping to release the umami taste in the clam.” East and West argue over flavors. East according to China, thinks there are five flavors – sour, sweet, bitter, salty and spicy; West accepts only four. Spicy is not a taste. The Japanese invented a new taste in seafood called umami. Since then, monosodium glutamate has been invented. East and West both recognize this position. The most sour is the chopped dried young mango. One afternoon, casually walking into a countryside across a canal in Cao Lanh, saw some nibs drying a thinly chopped fruit. We asked, is it new or if people take advantage of the fallen mango as a sour agent to eat in the hot season in the house. We asked to buy, they were confused because “they do not sell at any time. How to sell. Then they sold tens of thousands of big bags. Only three slices of small mango makes the soup bowl more sour than Hoạn Thu!
