Cooking Basics

Broad beans - making a slit

If removal of the thin skin is not required, such as when lightly boiling in salt water to prepare, cut a slit into the middle line. Doing so will allow for faster cooking and also make the thin skin easier to peel away prior to eating.

Tomatoes - roughly chopped

Use the tip of a knife to carve out the stem, then cut into half horizontally. Cut the tomato vertically and horizontally into 1 to 1.5 cm. (0.5 in.) width pieces. If you want to remove the seeds, use your fingers to scoop these out after cutting in half horizontally.
