Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your spread the best flavor and texture. If you can, buy organic vegetables to avoid any pesticides or herbicides.
  • Cook the vegetables properly: The vegetables should be cooked until they are tender but still have a bit of a bite. Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and bland.
  • Season the spread to taste: The amount of salt, pepper, and herbs you add will depend on your personal preferences. Taste the spread as you go and adjust the seasonings as needed.
  • Serve the spread immediately: The spread is best served immediately after it is made. However, you can also store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
