This delightfully bright and flavourful side dish might just steal the show at your next meal. Quinoa gives this recipe a nice punch of plant-based protein, while a myriad of seeds and herbs come together in a symphony of flavour.
Blooming flavour
To get the most intense flavour out of your herbs, nuts, or seeds during cooking, try blooming, or tempering. This culinary technique involves frying aromatic ingredients in a fat before adding them to a dish. The volatile flavour compounds are best extracted and absorbed by a fat, rather than water, which ensures a more potent expression of flavour in your dish.
