Cooking Tips
🥚 Eggs
- For fluffy scrambled eggs, cook low and slow, stirring constantly.
- Add a splash of vinegar to water for better poached eggs.

🥓 Bacon
- Bake bacon at 400°F (200°C) on a sheet pan for even, hands-free cooking.
- Start bacon in a cold pan and cook slowly for the crispiest results.
