Cooking Tips
🥩 Beef
- Bring beef to room temperature 30 minutes before cooking for even results.
- Season generously with salt at least 40 minutes before or right before cooking.
- Sear on high heat first, then finish on lower heat for the perfect crust.
Nutrition: Excellent source of iron, zinc, and B12. A 3oz serving provides about 22g protein.
Storage: Refrigerate ground beef up to 2 days, steaks up to 5 days. Freeze for 4-12 months.
🧀 Cheese
- Bring cheese to room temperature 30 minutes before serving for best flavor.
- Grate your own cheese — pre-shredded contains anti-caking agents that affect melting.
- Add cheese at the end of cooking on low heat to prevent it from becoming rubbery.
Nutrition: High in calcium, protein, and phosphorus. Varies by type — mozzarella is lower fat, cheddar is higher.
Storage: Wrap in parchment paper, then plastic wrap. Hard cheeses last weeks; soft cheeses use within days.
