Ingredient Pairings

Cilantro and lime are a classic pairing in Mexican cuisine. The citrusy flavor of lime enhances the fresh and herbaceous taste of cilantro, creating a vibrant combination used in salsas, guacamole, and marinades.

Food Facts

Eating spicy foods can increase your metabolism and temporarily boost your calorie-burning rate due to the thermogenic effect of capsaicin, the compound responsible for the heat in chili peppers.

Cooking Tips

When boiling pasta, add a generous amount of salt to the boiling water. This helps to season the pasta from the inside out and enhances its flavor.

Ingredient Spotlight

Lemon is a citrus fruit known for its bright, tangy flavor. It adds a refreshing and acidic element to both sweet and savory dishes. Lemon juice and zest are commonly used in dressings, marinades, desserts, and beverages.

Foraging Facts

When foraging wild edibles, avoid over-harvesting from a single area to ensure the sustainability of the plants and maintain healthy ecosystems. Take only what you need and leave enough for the plants to continue thriving.

Baking Hacks

When working with sticky dough or batter, wet your hands or utensils with water to prevent sticking. This makes it easier to handle and shape the dough.

Culinary Terms

Deglazing is the process of adding liquid (such as wine, stock, or vinegar) to a pan to loosen the browned bits of food stuck to the bottom. This technique is often used to create flavorful sauces or gravies.
