Loved the chicken tip of searing the chicken pieces on the outside and then baking them later on. Woo hoo!

Actually, I loved and will use all today’s cooking tips.

I’m starting to think that one of my favorite parts of Imperfect (in addition to preventing waste) is the cooking tips.

I liked Joel’s info on leeks and kale. I’m a new cook since Covid and I’ve never tried cooking these “alternative” veggies. What else can you do with leeks? Thank you!
