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.

Mint is a refreshing herb with a cool, menthol flavor. It adds a burst of freshness to both sweet and savory dishes. Mint is commonly used in beverages, salads, desserts, and Middle Eastern cuisine.

Foraging Facts

Learning to properly preserve foraged foods is essential to enjoy them year-round. Techniques like drying, pickling, or making jams and jellies can help you preserve the flavors of the season for later use.

Baking Hacks

To quickly soften butter for baking, place it between two sheets of parchment paper and gently pound it with a rolling pin. This softens the butter without melting it.
