Pantry ingredients to go with it
Stock the pantry with a few ingredients that tend to show up alongside this tool.
Galangal Root
Galangal root is a rhizome closely related to ginger, originating from Indonesia but widely used in Southeast Asian cuisines, particularly Thai and Indonesian cooking. It offers a sharp, citrusy flavor with hints of pine and pepper, distinct from the sweeter taste of ginger. The texture is fibrous and somewhat tough, requiring peeling and slicing before use. In cooking, galangal is often used fresh or ground, and it infuses dishes with its unique aroma and taste, though it is typically removed before serving. Galangal is a key component in curry pastes and soups, where it adds depth and complexity without overwhelming other flavors.
Sea Scallops
Plump and sweet, sea scallops are a luxurious treat with a tender texture that melts in your mouth. Their delicate flavor is enhanced by a quick sear, creating a caramelized crust that contrasts beautifully with their succulent interior.
Endive
Endive is a leafy green vegetable known for its elongated, pale leaves with a slightly bitter taste and a crisp, refreshing texture. Originating from the Mediterranean region, endive has been cultivated for centuries and is a staple in European cuisine. Its flavor profile is marked by a mild bitterness that is balanced with a subtle sweetness, making it a versatile ingredient in both raw and cooked dishes. The leaves are sturdy yet tender, offering a satisfying crunch when eaten raw, and they soften when cooked. In cooking, endive holds up well to roasting and braising, mellowing its bitterness while retaining its distinct character. It can also be used in salads, where it adds a refreshing bite and visual appeal.
Dried Tarragon
Dried tarragon offers a unique, slightly sweet, and anise-like flavor with a subtle herbal aroma. Originating from the Mediterranean region, its delicate texture and bright notes add depth to dishes without overpowering them. The leaves, though small, pack a punch of flavor that is both refreshing and earthy, making it a prized herb in French cuisine. Its ability to enhance the taste of meats, vegetables, and sauces without adding heat or spice is what sets it apart.
Anchovy Fillets
Silvery and succulent, anchovy fillets are a briny treasure from the sea. Their rich, umami flavor adds depth to dishes, making them a beloved ingredient in kitchens worldwide.
Ground Cumin
Ground cumin is a warm, earthy spice made from dried and ground cumin seeds. It has a slightly smoky, bitter, and citrusy flavor that adds depth to a variety of dishes.
