Food Facts

Mushrooms are not plants; they are fungi. They lack roots, leaves, and chlorophyll and rely on other organic matter for nutrition.

Cooking Tips

When chopping onions, refrigerate them for a few minutes before cutting to reduce the release of the irritating compounds that cause tears.

Eggplant is a versatile vegetable with a meaty texture. It has a slightly bitter taste that becomes milder when cooked. Eggplant can be grilled, roasted, sautéed, or used as a substitute for meat in vegetarian dishes.

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.
