Cooking Tips
🥩 Pork
- Brine pork chops for 30 minutes in salt water to keep them juicy.
- Cook pork to 145°F (63°C) and rest for 3 minutes — no longer needs to be 160°F.
- Low-and-slow is the secret to tender pulled pork — 225°F for 8-10 hours.
Nutrition: Lean pork tenderloin has similar protein content to chicken breast with less fat.
Storage: Refrigerate up to 3-5 days for chops, 1-2 days for ground. Freeze for 4-6 months.
🥬 Cabbage
- Shred cabbage thinly for slaw and thicker for braising.
- Red cabbage needs acid (vinegar or lemon) to keep its color when cooking.
- Cabbage is one of the most affordable vegetables — one head feeds a family.
Nutrition: High in vitamin C and K. Very low calorie — one cup shredded has 22 calories.
Storage: Refrigerate whole heads for up to 2 weeks.
