Tips & Tricks (5)

Dry Your Shiitakes First 🍄
Pat shiitake mushrooms completely dry with paper towels before sautéing to ensure they brown properly and develop deep, umami-rich flavors instead of steaming.
Build Layers with Sherry Vinegar ✨
Reserve half your sherry vinegar to drizzle over the finished bowl—adding it at the end brightens flavors and prevents acidity from muting the delicate vegetable tastes during cooking.
Toast Your Beans for Texture 🫘
Lightly sauté canned beans in olive oil with garlic for 2-3 minutes before adding to the broth to give them a subtle nutty flavor and firmer texture that resists mushiness.
Bloom Chili Flakes in Oil 🌶️
Combine chili flakes with olive oil and warm it gently for 30 seconds before adding other ingredients to extract their full spicy potency and create balanced heat throughout the dish.
Add Spinach at Two Stages 🥬
Stir in half the spinach early to cook down and meld with flavors, then add the remaining fresh spinach at the very end for a contrast of textures and bright, vibrant color.
