Almonds are a great pairing with fruits like apricots, where their crunchiness provides a nice contrast to the soft texture of the fruit. This combination works well in desserts, salads, and savory dishes.

Food Facts

Cabbage contains a high amount of vitamin C and is often used as a natural remedy for soothing skin irritations and reducing inflammation.

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

Basil is a fragrant herb with a sweet, peppery flavor. It is commonly associated with Italian cuisine and is an essential ingredient in pesto. Basil can also be used in salads, sauces, and to garnish various dishes.

Foraging Facts

Foraging can be a family-friendly activity that helps children develop an appreciation for nature and an understanding of where their food comes from. Make sure to teach them about safety, responsible foraging, and the importance of sustainable practices.

Baking Hacks

When making pastry dough, use ice-cold water to help keep the dough cold and maintain its flakiness. Cold water slows down the formation of gluten in the dough.
