Food Facts

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

Cooking Tips

To prevent a pie crust from becoming soggy when filling it with wet ingredients, brush the crust with a beaten egg white before adding the filling. This creates a barrier and helps maintain a crisp crust.

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

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 whipped cream, chill the bowl and beaters in the refrigerator beforehand. Cold utensils help the cream whip faster and hold its shape better.
