Pro Tips
No cooking required! Make sure your ingredients are fresh and at the right temperature for the best result.
Use high-quality olive oil and fresh herbs for the most authentic flavor. Dried herbs work in a pinch but fresh makes a noticeable difference.
Taste as you go and adjust seasoning before serving. Plant-based dishes often benefit from a squeeze of lemon or a pinch of salt at the end.
