Cooking Tips
🍗 Chicken
- Pat chicken dry before cooking for crispier skin.
- Let chicken rest 5-10 minutes after cooking to retain juices.
- Use a meat thermometer — 165°F (74°C) is the safe internal temperature.

Storage: Refrigerate raw chicken up to 2 days. Freeze for up to 9 months.
🍆 Eggplant
- Salt eggplant slices and let them sweat for 30 minutes to remove bitterness.
- Roast whole eggplant over a flame for smoky baba ganoush.
- Eggplant absorbs oil like a sponge — brush rather than pour oil on it.
