Cooking tips 💡

• Soaking potatoes in honey syrup and soy sauce uses osmotic pressure to draw out moisture, making them firmer and chewier.
• Adding vegetable oil during cooking creates a shiny, glossy surface on the potatoes.
• Piercing the potatoes with a fork ensures the seasoning penetrates all the way to the center.
