A little help cooking

Hi Everyone,

The year is still new, so hopefully you’re still in a resolution frame of mind. Hopefully you are committed to cook more at home in 2018, right? I am going to suggest six make-ahead sauces and seasonings to stock in your fridge or freezer that will help with your meal prep and cooking.

Ginger-Scallion Oil

This is like a mother sauce – it works as a garnish, a condiment and a seasoning. Enticingly fragrant, savoury and delicious, this ginger-scallion oil will enhance everything to which it is added. Spoon it over steamed seafood and vegetables, boiled or steamed rice, noodles or ground provisions. Makes a good pairing with steaks and chops too.
