Treat your herbs like flowers by keeping them nice and fresh! Next time you have a bunch of fresh herbs in your kitchen, trim the stems and put the herbs in a Ziploc bag with a damp paper towel. Into the fridge they go and no more limp herbs!

Test your oven for hot spots! Bake parchment paper on an oven sheet for 20 mins at 400 degrees. The dark spots are where the hot spots in your oven are. Now you know where to avoid when baking!

It's definitely a nuisance when fish stick to the bottom of the pan when you grill. Try adding some lemons under the fish to prevent this! As an added bonus, the lemon creates great flavor.

Get creative in the kitchen and try some pairings out! Some of my favorite fruit and spice combos are apple cider or mango and pineapple with chamoy and tajin.
