Cooking Tips
🥑 Avocado
- Check ripeness by pressing gently near the stem — it should give slightly.
- Add lime or lemon juice to cut avocado to prevent browning.
- Store unripe avocados with a banana in a paper bag to speed up ripening.
Nutrition: Rich in healthy monounsaturated fats, potassium, and fiber. Half an avocado has about 160 calories.
Storage: Ripen at room temperature. Refrigerate once ripe for up to 3 days.
🌿 Cilantro
- Add cilantro at the very end of cooking — heat destroys its flavor.
- Use both the leaves and stems — stems have more concentrated flavor.
- If you hate cilantro, try substituting with flat-leaf parsley or Thai basil.
Nutrition: Good source of vitamins A, C, and K. Contains antioxidants and may aid digestion.
Storage: Place stems in a jar of water, cover with a bag, and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
