Cooking tips 💡

• Do not rinse the blanched chives with cold water, as this will wash away their natural sweetness; cooling them in the air is preferable.
• If blanching exceeds 30 seconds, the chives will become soft and lose their crisp texture.
• Pre-toast the dried anchovies in the microwave for about 20 seconds to remove any fishy odor and moisture, enhancing their savoriness.
