Cooking Tips

Seasoning in layers by adding salt and seasonings at different stages in cooking process
Incorporating fresh herbs like basil, cilantro, or parsley at the end of cooking adds a burst of freshness and brightens up the entire dish.
A splash of vinegar or a squeeze of lemon or lime can balance and enhance the natural flavours of a dish.
Toasting spices and nuts in a dry pan before adding them to your recipes can intensify their flavors and add a new dimension of taste.
Allowing ingredients like onions, meat, and even vegetables to brown in the pan creates a rich, complex flavor foundation
