  32. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Cooking with wine is a great way to add an extra layer of flavor to your dishes. To get started, choose the right wine for your dish. Full-bodied red wines like Cabernet Sauvignon are perfect for red meat dishes, while white wines like Sauvignon Blanc work well with lighter dishes like chicken or seafood.</p>
  33. <p style="text-align: justify;">When cooking with wine, it&#8217;s important to use good quality wine that you would enjoy drinking. Low-quality wine can result in a flat or bitter taste. Use wine to deglaze pans and create flavorful sauces, and consider adding it to slow-cooked dishes for a rich, complex flavor. Wine can also be used in marinades to tenderize meat and add flavor.</p>
  34. <p style="text-align: justify;">One thing to keep in mind when cooking with wine is to avoid overdoing it. Too much wine can overpower the other flavors in the dish and create an unbalanced taste. Use wine sparingly and taste as you go to ensure that you&#8217;re achieving the desired balance of flavors.</p>
  35. <p style="text-align: justify;">In conclusion, cooking with wine can take your dishes to the next level. By choosing the right wine, using good quality, and being mindful of how much you&#8217;re using, you can create delicious dishes that your guests will love.

  49. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Baking can be enjoyable, but it can also be frustrating if you are unfamiliar with some essential baking tips. Here are some hints to help you improve your baking skills.</p>
  50. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Measure your ingredients accurately.</h2>
  51. <p style="text-align: justify;">Baking is a science, and the measurements of ingredients are important for the outcome of your baked items. Use measuring cups and spoons for dry ingredients and a kitchen scale for wet ingredients.</p>
  52. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Use the right type of flour.</h2>
  53. <p style="text-align: justify;">Different types of flour have different protein content, which affects your baked goods&#8217; structure. For cakes and cookies, use all-purpose flour, and for bread, use bread or<strong> <a href="https://cotswoldflour.com/collections/rye-flour">rye flour</a></strong>, a good dietary fiber source.</p>
  54. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Preheat your oven.</h2>
  55. <p style="text-align: justify;">Preheating your oven is vital for ensuring that your baked goods are cooked through and have the right texture. Preheat your oven for at least 15-20 minutes before baking.</p>
  56. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Use room temperature ingredients.</h2>
  57. <p style="text-align: justify;">When baking, ensure that your ingredients, like butter and eggs, are at room temperature. Eggs at room temperature combine well with softened butter to produce a batter with a smooth, consistent texture. Furthermore, egg yolks and egg whites separate more easily when warm than chilly. As a result, they will blend better with other ingredients, giving your baked goods a better texture and consistency.</p>
  58. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Follow the recipe.</h2>
  59. <p style="text-align: justify;">Baking is a science, and recipes are formulated to give you the best possible results. Follow the recipe closely, and only make substitutions if you are familiar with their effects on your baked goods. Thankfully there are so many online resources to check different baking recipes.</p>
  60. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Use the right pan size.</h2>
  61. <p style="text-align: justify;">Using a too-small or too-large pan can affect the baking time and the outcome of your baked goods. Always use the pan size specified in the recipe. If you improvise, ensure it works similarly to what is specified in the recipe.</p>
  62. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Be careful with leavening agents.</h2>
  63. <p style="text-align: justify;">Leavening agents, like baking powder and soda, help your baked goods rise. Do not add too much, as it can cause your baked goods to collapse or become too dry. As mentioned earlier, ensure you use a measuring cup to measure your ingredients when baking.</p>
  64. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Don&#8217;t overmix.</h2>
  65. <p style="text-align: justify;">This is related to the development of gluten: When flour is combined with liquids, the gluten proteins that give baked goods their structure are activated. Overmixing can cause your baked goods to become tough and chewy. Mix ingredients just until they are combined, and then stop.</p>
  66. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Test for doneness.</h2>
  67. <p style="text-align: justify;">Use a cake tester to check if your baked goods are done. If it comes out clean, then your baked goods are done.</p>
  68. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Let your baked goods cool before serving.</h2>
  69. <p style="text-align: justify;">Letting your baked goods cool before serving helps them to set and makes them easier to handle.</p>
  70. <h1 style="text-align: justify;">Last words</h1>
  71. <p style="text-align: justify;">With these baking hacks, you can improve your baking skills and create delicious baked items that your family and friends will love. Remember, baking is a science and requires patience, practice and attention to detail. Happy baking!</p><p>The post <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com/some-baking-hacks-you-should-know-for-your-next-recipe/">SOME BAKING HACKS YOU SHOULD KNOW FOR YOUR NEXT RECIPE</a> first appeared on <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com">Plum Tomatoes Restaurant -  cooking tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  83. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">When you&#8217;re hosting a dinner party, it&#8217;s important to make sure that your guests feel special. For those special occasions you can&#8217;t go wrong with wines from the <strong><a href="https://www.ambrosewine.com/highlights/red-wine">robert mondavi private selection</a></strong>. These wines are world-class and are sure to impress your guests at your next dinner party! Here are some of our favorites.</p>
  84. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The Best Wines For A Dinner Party</strong></p>
  85. <p style="text-align: justify;">Before sending out your invites for the dinner party you&#8217;re going to host, be sure to read over the guest list and make sure you&#8217;re including people that fit a theme or vibe that you&#8217;re trying to achieve for the evening. This can also come in handy when choosing the wine you&#8217;ll be serving that evening as well. For example, if you&#8217;re going to be having a more traditional Italian dinner, choose an Italian wine to pair alongside it. If you&#8217;re planning more of a Mediterranean themed meal, choose a white wine to pair with the dishes. Either way, be sure to purchase enough wine for the number of guests that you expect to be in attendance that evening. This will help to keep everyone happy throughout the night.</p>
  86. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The Perfect Pairing</strong></p>
  87. <p style="text-align: justify;">Italy meets Spain in a playful and unique Tempranillo; a soft, velvety rosé sparkling wine that pairs well with fish dishes and creamy sauces. Pronounced flavors of ripe raspberry, strawberry and lemon mingle with the fresh tones of white peach and fresh citrus in this fruity rose’, adding wonderful balance to any dish. Pair with sautéed shrimp topped with garlic butter and sprinkled with parsley.</p>
  88. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Serve It Up</strong></p>
  89. <p style="text-align: justify;">When purchasing wine for your dinner party, be sure to purchase a variety of different types of wine so that everyone will have a variety to choose from throughout the evening. You can also create a cheese plate to go along with the wine to give your guests something to snack on during the party as well. Serving a cheese plate gives your guests the opportunity to taste different cheeses and enjoy a drink without having to worry about having to refill their glass in between bites.</p>
  90. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Set The Mood</strong></p>
  91. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><a href="https://www.womansday.com/life/g41956802/christmas-party-ideas/">Warm spiced wine</a></strong> is easy to make, and a great way to bring everyone together. This cocktail is perfect for the colder months of the year when everyone is spending more time indoors and is eager to enjoy a nice glass of wine. It&#8217;s best served hot so try pouring it into mugs instead of glasses so that each guest has their own mug and can stay warm throughout the night. You can even experiment with different flavors by adding cloves and cinnamon to the wine before heating it up to give it a more exotic flavor.</p><p>The post <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com/how-to-impress-guests-at-your-next-dinner-party/">How To Impress Guests At Your Next Dinner Party</a> first appeared on <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com">Plum Tomatoes Restaurant -  cooking tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  103. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">You finally plucked up the courage to ask the person out that you have been admiring for some time now and they agreed to go out on a date with you. That’s the good news and now the bad news is trying to figure out what would be the perfect first date so that you don’t mess things up from the very beginning. There are many options open to you right now and you might be thinking that the option of taking your date to a bar might be a good one. This is the opposite of a good idea because it will be full of people who will be loud, there will be live music and so you will be unable to strike up a conversation in order to get to know each other well.</p>
  104. <p style="text-align: justify;">It would make a lot more sense to visit one of the many <a href="https://olivers.com.au/store-locator/?location=wyong-northbound-wyong-nsw"><strong>restaurants in Wyong</strong></a> because taking someone to a restaurant is known as a classic first date and it provides the best first impression every single time. If you are not completely convinced that taking your date to an excellent restaurant is a good idea then please keep reading.</p>
  105. <ol style="text-align: justify;">
  106. <li><strong>It is incredibly romantic &#8211; </strong>If you choose your restaurant wisely then you’re going to be presented with an excellent menu that includes an extensive wine list. The low lighting and the ability to have a conversation are both great attributes for eating out in any restaurant. If you are looking to impress your date then you can order the most expensive thing on the menu and that lets them know that you are very successful in life and it also gives you an opportunity to dress up.</li>
  107. <li><strong>You get your questions answered &#8211; </strong>It’s likely that you are thinking what can of person he or she really is and if they are as nice as they seem to be. There are many tastes that you can carry out throughout the evening like listening and see if they like talking about themselves all the time or if they are good listeners. You can check how modern thinking that they are when the bill comes to see if they reach for it before you do. If they are insistent that they pay at least half the bill then you know you have met someone truly special.</li>
  108. </ol>
  109. <p style="text-align: justify;">Eating out at a local quality restaurant provides you with numerous opportunities to really get to know this new person in your life. It could be the start of something quite beautiful and you never know, you might still be together this time next year and so you can celebrate by going to the same restaurant.</p><p>The post <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com/the-top-reasons-why-eating-out-is-a-great-first-date/">The Top Reasons Why Eating Out Is a Great First Date.</a> first appeared on <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com">Plum Tomatoes Restaurant -  cooking tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  152. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">If it has been a while since you and your friends have hung out together, you can consider inviting them to your place, cooking homemade burgers, and watching a movie or two together. It is an excellent way to enjoy delicious food, watch films with the people you love, and have a fantastic time together. You may even turn the event into a regular thing, and you and your friends can take turns hosting and preparing the food, and you can enjoy watching your favourite movies together.</p>
  153. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Go For Homemade Burgers</strong></p>
  154. <p style="text-align: justify;">Although you can buy burgers ready-made, which is okay, it is simple to make homemade burgers that will be more delicious, and everyone will enjoy. Ensure you have some tasty cheese and lots of fresh salad, and do not forget the condiments, including ketchup, BBQ sauce, and a <a href="https://www.flyinggoosebrand.com/our-range/sriracha-lover/">hot sauce; Sriracha</a> is an excellent choice. You can cook your burgers using the oven, or if the weather is good, you can consider breaking out the barbecue and enjoy the flame-grilled taste you get from cooking on an open flame.</p>
  155. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Do Not Forget The Refreshments</strong></p>
  156. <p style="text-align: justify;">As well as some <a href="https://www.deliciousmagazine.co.uk/recipes/the-ultimate-beef-burgers/">tasty burgers</a> and other foods, you will need to ensure you have plenty of refreshments available for you and your friends. You may want to get some beer or wine, and it is also a good idea to have a variety of soft drinks you can enjoy while watching your films. Once you have taken care of the food and the drinks for your movie night, you will also need to ensure you have plenty of space for everyone to sit while they watch the movies comfortably.</p>
  157. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Watching Your Movies</strong></p>
  158. <p style="text-align: justify;">You will need to ensure plenty of space for you to all sit and watch the movies you plan to view, and you may need to get some extra cushions and chairs if you have limited seating. If you have beanbags, these can be an excellent addition, and people can sit in comfort while watching some of your favourite films together. You will need to plan what movies you will watch, and you can also binge-watch a series if you prefer. Although you have all eaten before you watch your film, ensure you have plenty of popcorn you can enjoy while watching your series or movies together. With some simple planning, you can have a fantastic time, and you may start a new regular event for you and your friends that you can do once a month or more.</p><p>The post <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com/having-a-burgers-movie-night-with-your-friends/">Having A Burgers & Movie Night With Your Friends</a> first appeared on <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com">Plum Tomatoes Restaurant -  cooking tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  170. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Now that we are allowed to socialise again after the global pandemic, you may want to invite your friends and family to your home and enjoy a barbecue. With careful planning, you can ensure you are the perfect host and cater to everyone who attends and getting some<strong> <a href="https://www.exoticfoodthailand.com/">exotic sauces</a></strong> can ensure the food options are well received. Below are some tips and advice for you to follow to help you plan the ideal barbecue so that everyone enjoys themselves and there is plenty of delicious food and drink available.</p>
  171. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Deciding Who To Invite</strong></p>
  172. <p style="text-align: justify;">You will want to create a guest list for your barbecue, which will also help you to plan the menu. Invite your closest friends and family to your barbecue but ensure you do not invite too many people for the available space. Once you have finalised who you will invite, you need to contact everyone and ask them if they can attend and if they have any special dietary requirements.</p>
  173. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Planning The Menu</strong></p>
  174. <p style="text-align: justify;">Once you know who will be attending your barbecue, you can start planning the menu and ensure there is something to eat for everyone. You will want to have plenty of meat or fish options for everyone, and you will also want to include some <strong><a href="https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/collection/vegan-barbecue-recipes">healthy vegan options</a></strong> for people to enjoy. If children are attending, you need to ensure they have options, and burgers and hot dogs are always a welcome option.</p>
  175. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Do Not Forget The Drinks</strong></p>
  176. <p style="text-align: justify;">You will also need to ensure plenty of refreshments for your guests, even if you ask them to bring drinks themselves. You will most likely not have room in your fridge to keep them cool, so you will want to get some iceboxes and fill them with ice cubes to help keep the drinks cool. Remember that some people may be driving, so they cannot drink, and you will need non-alcoholic beverages for these people.</p>
  177. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>A Seat For Everyone</strong></p>
  178. <p style="text-align: justify;">You will also need to ensure that you have plenty of seats for everyone at your barbecue, and you may need to ask to borrow some from friends or family. You may also need to provide some shade for everyone if it is a warm sunny day, so you will want to set up a gazebo if you have one. With some planning and preparation, you can plan an excellent barbecue for your friends and family and ensure that everyone who attends has a fantastic time.</p><p>The post <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com/preparing-for-a-barbecue-for-your-family-friends/">Preparing For A Barbecue For Your Family & Friends</a> first appeared on <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com">Plum Tomatoes Restaurant -  cooking tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  190. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Heading to a bar to get a beer was always a tedious job, and due to the COVID outbreak, it’s no longer feasible. Home brew kits offer a remedy to this problem. They enable you to easily craft a perfect drink in the comfort of your home.</p>
  191. <p style="text-align: justify;">Buying a kit doesn’t break your bank, and it pays for itself after some time. If you are a DIY enthusiast and love drinking too, you can’t go wrong with a home brew kit. But how do you get the right one?</p>
  192. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Determine Your Needs</strong></p>
  193. <p style="text-align: justify;">As with anything, you get plenty of options to choose from when it comes to buying a home brew kit. From highly advanced brew kits with robust features to simpler ones with basic features, the market is saturated with these kits.</p>
  194. <p style="text-align: justify;">It all comes down to your personal choice. So, determine what kind of kit will suit your needs before buying one. Of course, you’d have to pony up a few extra bucks if you go for the flagship home brew kit.</p>
  195. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Consider Your Expertise</strong></p>
  196. <p style="text-align: justify;">What’s your level of expertise? Will you be able to handle a complicated home brew kit? As mentioned earlier, <strong><a href="https://www.41pintsofbeer.com.au/">the best home brew kits boast ground-breaking features</a>.</strong> These features are good to have, but they can leave non-techies scratching their heads.</p>
  197. <p style="text-align: justify;">To get the most of your home brew kit, it’s a good idea to refer to the user manual. If you want to ace the crafting, it’s recommended to choose the modern brew kit.</p>
  198. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Determine What Capacity Is Enough</strong></p>
  199. <p style="text-align: justify;">Consider the capacity of your home brew kit before making a purchase. Figure out how much beer your family consumes, and choose a kit accordingly. Of course, you’d have to brew often with a kit with less capacity, which can be a headache if you’re an eager beaver.</p>
  200. <p style="text-align: justify;">The minimum capacity of these kits is one gallon, but it can go as high as five gallons. Three gallons is the bare minimum. Some people recommend buying a lobster pot, which works just fine and has enough capacity.</p>
  201. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Types of Fermenters</strong></p>
  202. <p style="text-align: justify;">The fermenter is the key component of your home brew kit. Its materials vary depending on the price of your kit. Plastic, carboys, barrel-style, and stainless steel are the different material options for the fermenter. Plastic is a popular option as it works well and is fairly inexpensive. Avoid carboys because they can be a bit risky to use.</p><p>The post <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com/tips-to-get-the-best-home-brew-kits/">Tips to Get the Best Home Brew Kits</a> first appeared on <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com">Plum Tomatoes Restaurant -  cooking tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  214. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">With the global pandemic still lingering on, it may have been a while since you have gotten together with your friends and enjoyed spending a day together. If it has been a while since you have done this, it is high time to plan a fantastic day out with your friends that you can all enjoy. Below are some things you may want to do, such as eating the <strong><a href="https://uspizza.my/store-location/">best pizza in PJ</a></strong>, that will help ensure you and your friends have an excellent time together.</p>
  215. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Spend The Day At Sunway Lagoon</strong></p>
  216. <p style="text-align: justify;">An excellent way to spend the day with your friends is by visiting <strong><a href="https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Attraction_Review-g298313-d1487202-Reviews-Sunway_Lagoon-Petaling_Jaya_Petaling_District_Selangor.html">Sunway Lagoon</a></strong> and enjoying the many water-based rides this water park has to offer. It is perfect when the weather is hot, and you can go down a slide, see the animals, or float on an inner tube while you relax in the sun. Make sure you take plenty of sun protection with you, and after you have finished, you can go and do something else or get some food together.</p>
  217. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Spend Some Time With The Huskies</strong></p>
  218. <p style="text-align: justify;">If you are a dog lover, you may want to spend an hour or two with the huskies, which you and your friends will enjoy. The Huskiss attraction allows you to visit and interact with various Huskey dogs and have fun playing with them. However, if dogs are not your thing, there are other things you can do with your friends.</p>
  219. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Go Skating On Ice</strong></p>
  220. <p style="text-align: justify;">You can also go ice skating with your friends and take a trip t the Sunway Pyramid shopping centre. It is another excellent way to cool down when it is hot outside, and if you cannot skate, you can treat yourself to some relatively affordable lessons. However, if ice skating is not something you and your friends want to do, other options are available.</p>
  221. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Enjoy Some Karaoke</strong></p>
  222. <p style="text-align: justify;">If you and your friends are more into karaoke than ice skating, there are plenty of options of karaoke venues you can visit. You can enjoy some drinks and delicious food while you take turns belting out your favourite tunes. It is an excellent way to enjoy your time together, and you also get to enjoy some cooling air conditioning while you all have fun.</p>
  223. <p style="text-align: justify;">These are a few ideas of things you can do with your friends when you have not been together for a long time, but more options are available. Whatever you decide to do, it is the company you are with that is important, not where you are or what you do.</p><p>The post <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com/planning-a-fantastic-day-out-with-friends-in-petaling-jaya/">Planning A Fantastic Day Out With Friends In Petaling Jaya</a> first appeared on <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com">Plum Tomatoes Restaurant -  cooking tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  235. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Have you ever tried making a stir-fry and feel that you could have done it better? Ido Fishman says that there is one mistake that a lot of rookie cooks make and that is adding multiple things to their wok at once. Adding too many items cools down your wok, so your food ends up steaming or simmering, rather than frying. You want it to fry, particularly the meats. Moreover, adding all your ingredients at once means you are not taking into account the different cooking rates of the food. For instance, thin strips of chicken breast, or shrimp, doesn’t take as long as hard carrots to cook.</p>
  236. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Outlined below are some of the top tips <a href="http://www.onlineisraelnews.com/ido-fishman-explains-which-food-items-can-still-be-used-after-expiration/">Ido Fishman</a> has shared for making the perfect stir-fry:</strong></p>
  237. <ul style="text-align: justify;">
  238. <li><strong>Make sure the wok is smoking hot</strong></li>
  239. </ul>
  240. <p style="text-align: justify;">You have to have an extremely hot wok if you want to make a good stir-fry. You can also use a sauté pan. One of the most common problems that people make is not ensuring the pan is hot enough. This applies generally as well, not only to stir-fries. As restaurants have very powerful stoves, they can pump out high heat that enables them to get the right sear on meats and also cook foods quickly, so they don’t have to spend a lot of time in the pan.</p>
  241. <p style="text-align: justify;">Since you don’t have the same equipment as a restaurant, Ido Fishman suggests that you heat your wok for a long while. You should heat your wok for about 5 to 10 minutes on the highest heat, or on a gas range. You should heat it dry without adding anything, but not with a non-stick coated wok. The best ones are made of carbon steel. Add some oil once the wok is hot enough. Go with the most refined high-heat vegetable oil like refined sunflower oil. As its neutral flavored, you can taste the food and the seasonings and not the oil.</p>
  242. <ul style="text-align: justify;">
  243. <li><strong>Don’t cook ice-cold meat</strong></li>
  244. </ul>
  245. <p style="text-align: justify;">Your wok will cool off instantly if you add cold meat to it. Instead of doing so, you should let the meat stay at room temperature for about 20 minutes before you begin cooking. During this time, it can be marinated with soy sauce and a bit of wine. You can remove it from the marinade when you are ready to cook, drain it and then dry it before adding it to the wok.</p>
  246. <ul style="text-align: justify;">
  247. <li><strong>Cook the meat in batches</strong></li>
  248. </ul>
  249. <p style="text-align: justify;">According to <a href="https://idofishmanchef.com/about-us/"><strong>Chef Ido Fishman</strong></a>, cooking the meat in batches is recommended if you have more than 8 ounces. If you overload the wok, it will cool off. When the meat releases its juices, it will end up steaming and simmering, rather than frying. This means the meat will turn gray, rather than the tender and brown you are after. You should heat up the oil first and then add flavoring ingredients, such as ginger and garlic, before adding the meat. You can spread it out instead of piling it all in the center. Also, you shouldn’t start stirring immediately. Let it be for half a minute to allow it to brown.</p>
  250. <p style="text-align: justify;">Cook the meat until it seems almost done and then remove it. Add more oil to the pan after reheating it and then repeat it, until you have cooked all your meat.</p>
  251. <ul style="text-align: justify;">
  252. <li><strong>Cook the vegetables now</strong></li>
  253. </ul>
  254. <p style="text-align: justify;">Heat the wok again after setting aside the meat, add seasonings and fresh oil and then cook the vegetables. You can add sliced mushrooms and onions early and add leafy vegetables in the end. Some items like broccoli, carrots and beans require extra cooking time. Ido Fishman recommends that you add some wine, soy sauce, or stock and cook until all the vegetables are done.</p>
  255. <p style="text-align: justify;">The final step for you is to add the meat to the wok and finish the cooking. Ido Fishman suggests that you add some sesame oil at the end for some flavoring.</p><p>The post <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com/ido-fishman-shares-tips-for-making-the-perfect-stir-fry/">Ido Fishman Shares Tips for Making the Perfect Stir-Fry</a> first appeared on <a href="https://plumtomatoesrestaurant.com">Plum Tomatoes Restaurant -  cooking tips</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>
