    Tips & Tricks (5)

    • Pancetta Crisping Technique šŸ„“
      Render the pancetta slowly in a cold pan to maximize crispy texture and release maximum flavor before adding other ingredients.
    • Kale Massage Method šŸ‘
      Massage the chopped kale with a pinch of salt before cooking to break down the tough fibers and enhance tenderness and flavor absorption.
    • Garlic Timing Trick šŸ§„
      Add minced garlic after pancetta is crisp but before adding kale to prevent burning and ensure a rich, nutty garlic flavor.
    • Panko Toasting Hack šŸž
      Toast panko in a dry skillet before sprinkling to develop a deeper, nuttier flavor and create a more crisp texture.
    • Liquid Balance Secret šŸ’¦
      Add chicken broth gradually and watch closely to prevent overcooking the kale while ensuring it's perfectly moistened and not soggy.
