Chef's Tips
- Bloom aromatics for 30–60 seconds before adding liquids to unlock deeper flavor in Mediterranean Avocado Toast.
- Cook the main protein or core ingredient in batches if needed—overcrowding lowers pan heat and prevents proper browning.
- Reserve a small amount of cooking liquid to adjust texture at the end and keep the final result glossy, not dry.
- Finish with contrast: add a fresh element (herbs/citrus/crunch) right before serving to sharpen the overall flavor profile.
