Cooking Tips

Add a small amount of hot mixture to eggs/egg yolks:
When eggs or egg yolks are added all at once to a hot mixture, they may begin to coagulate too rapidly and form lumps. Stir a small amount of the hot mixture into the yolks to warm them and then stir the warmed egg yolk mixture into the remaining hot mixture. This is called tempering. View all the cooking tips >
