Ingredient Pairings

Sage and butternut squash make a delightful pairing, as the earthy and slightly peppery flavor of sage enhances the sweetness of the squash. This combination is often used in comforting fall dishes like soups and risottos.

Food Facts

Watermelons are 92% water, making them an excellent choice for staying hydrated during hot summer months.

Cooking Tips

When grilling vegetables, brush them with a light coating of oil to prevent sticking and enhance their natural flavors. Grilling vegetables brings out their sweetness and adds a smoky char.

Ingredient Spotlight

Rosemary is a fragrant herb with a piney and citrusy flavor. It pairs well with roasted meats, potatoes, and root vegetables. Rosemary can be used fresh or dried and adds an aromatic touch to various dishes.

Foraging Facts

When foraging for edible plants, avoid areas that might have been exposed to pesticides or pollutants, such as roadsides or areas near industrial sites. Opt for clean, pristine environments for your foraging adventures.

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.

Culinary Terms

Emulsify is the process of combining two liquids that do not easily mix, such as oil and vinegar, into a stable, smooth mixture. This is often achieved by slowly adding one ingredient to the other while vigorously whisking or blending.
