Ingredient Pairings

Lemon and seafood are a natural pairing, as the bright acidity of lemon enhances the delicate flavors of fish and shellfish. A squeeze of lemon juice adds a refreshing element to grilled or baked seafood dishes.

Food Facts

The world's hottest chili pepper is the Carolina Reaper. It measures over 2 million Scoville Heat Units (SHU) and can cause intense heat and burning sensation.

Cooking Tips

To prevent the skin of roasted chicken or turkey from becoming too dark, tent the bird with aluminum foil halfway through the cooking process. This helps to prevent over-browning.

Ingredient Spotlight

Pumpkin is a fall favorite known for its sweet, earthy flavor and vibrant orange color. It can be used in both sweet and savory dishes, such as pies, soups, roasted vegetables, and desserts.

Foraging Facts

Edible seaweed, such as nori, dulse, and wakame, can be foraged along coastlines and is a nutritious addition to various dishes. Make sure to forage from clean water sources and be aware of local regulations regarding seaweed harvesting.

Baking Hacks

If your cake sinks in the middle after baking, it may be due to overmixing or opening the oven door too early. To prevent this, avoid overmixing the batter and refrain from opening the oven door during the first half of the baking time.

Culinary Terms

Roasting is a dry-heat cooking method that involves cooking food, usually meat or vegetables, in an oven at a high temperature. It helps develop a caramelized exterior and enhances flavors.
