Episode notes
Share Reheatable Foods, Not Sushi
- When sharing homemade food during COVID, give items that the recipient can reheat like soups or stews.
- Have recipients bring food to a simmer for several minutes to ensure safety if they lack a thermometer.
Protect Others When Cooking For Them
- Wear a mask, wash hands, and sanitize surfaces when cooking for others outside your household.
- Use clean containers that can be wiped down and instruct recipients to reheat the food thoroughly.
Make Sardines a Main, Not Just A Topping
- Use canned sardines as a primary ingredient in salads, pastas, or with beans rather than only on crackers.
- Toss crumbled sardines with olive oil, vinegar, herbs, or build a pine-nut-and-currant pasta for bright, rich dishes.
