Cooking Tips
🍅 Tomatoes
- Store ripe tomatoes at room temperature for best flavor — never in the fridge.
- Add a pinch of sugar to tomato sauce to balance acidity.
- Blanch in boiling water for 30 seconds to easily peel the skin.
Nutrition: Excellent source of lycopene, vitamin C, and potassium. One medium tomato has 22 calories.
Storage: Keep unripe tomatoes on the counter. Use ripe tomatoes within 5 days.
🫘 Beans
- Soak dried beans overnight to reduce cooking time and improve digestibility.
- Don't add salt until the last 10 minutes — it can toughen the skins.
- Canned beans are perfectly fine — rinse them to reduce sodium by 40%.
Nutrition: High in fiber, plant protein, iron, and folate. One cup cooked has about 15g protein.
Storage: Dried beans last 1-2 years. Cooked beans keep 3-5 days refrigerated.
