The world's oldest known vegetable is the pea. Archaeologists have discovered pea remains in Stone Age settlements dating back over 8,000 years.

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

Lemon is a citrus fruit known for its bright, tangy flavor. It adds a refreshing and acidic element to both sweet and savory dishes. Lemon juice and zest are commonly used in dressings, marinades, desserts, and beverages.

Foraging Facts

Wild berries, such as blackberries, raspberries, and blueberries, are abundant in many regions and can be found in forests, fields, or even your own backyard. Before foraging, make sure to identify the edible berries and be aware of any potential hazards, such as thorny bushes or poisonous look-alikes.

Baking Hacks

To prevent fruit from sinking to the bottom of a cake or muffins, toss them in a small amount of flour before folding them into the batter. The flour coating helps to suspend the fruit in the batter.

Culinary Terms
