Always ensure that any cutting board or implements that you use for preparing raw chicken not be used for any other food before it is thoroughly cleaned and rinsed to ensure that any bacteria from the chicken doesn’t get transferred to other foods.
Before chopping nuts in a food processor dust them with flour first. This prevents the nut pieces from sticking to the blades.
When preparing kebabs, consider a great fragrant alternative to the traditional bamboo skewers. If you have some long straight stalks of rosemary, you can turn these into skewers by simply run your fingers down the branch to remove the leaves, but leaving a few leaves at the top end. This gives your food a very subtle and different piquancy.
A marinade is able to help improve the flavor and texture of many meat dishes. A good marinade will not only include flavor ingredients such as herbs, ginger or garlic, but will also include other ingredients to help to break down the connective tissues and muscles of the food. You would usually immerse the meat in the marinade for a few hours before cooking to gain the greatest benefit.
