Ingredient Pairings

Olive oil and balsamic vinegar create a harmonious balance of flavors. The fruity and robust taste of olive oil pairs well with the tangy and slightly sweet notes of balsamic vinegar, making it a versatile dressing or dip.

Food Facts

Peanuts are not actually nuts; they are legumes. They belong to the same family as beans, lentils, and soybeans.

Cooking Tips

When whisking vinaigrettes or dressings, gradually add the oil to the vinegar or acid while whisking vigorously. This helps to emulsify the ingredients and create a smooth and well-blended dressing.

Ingredient Spotlight

Chia seeds are tiny seeds that are packed with nutrients, including fiber, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids. They have a mild, nutty flavor and a gelatinous texture when soaked in liquid. Chia seeds can be added to smoothies, oatmeal, baked goods, or used as a thickening agent.

Foraging Facts

Foraging is not limited to land-based resources; freshwater and coastal areas offer a bounty of edible treasures. Look for wild edibles like watercress, samphire, or wild rice in wetland areas or along the shores of rivers, lakes, or oceans.

Baking Hacks

When working with sticky dough or batter, wet your hands or utensils with water to prevent sticking. This makes it easier to handle and shape the dough.

Culinary Terms

Deglazing is the process of adding liquid (such as wine, stock, or vinegar) to a pan to loosen the browned bits of food stuck to the bottom. This technique is often used to create flavorful sauces or gravies.
