Bringing meat to room temperature before cooking

It’s important to bring your meat to room temperature before cooking as it can help prevent food-borne illnesses and ensure a delicious meal every time.

When you cook meat that’s still cold in the center, harmful bacteria can survive and cause serious illness. Bringing your meat to room temperature ensures that any harmful bacteria is killed off, keeping you safe from these nasty germs.

Another benefit of bringing your meat to room temperature is that it ensures your meat will cook evenly. When you start with a cold piece of meat, the center is likely to remain colder than the outer edges. However, by bringing it to room temperature first, you can ensure that your whole piece of meat cooks evenly and thoroughly.

I simply leave the meat out on a countertop at room temperature, covered lightly in food wrap.

How to prepare and cook cauliflower rice

Cauliflower rice is a popular and healthy alternative to traditional white rice. To cook cauliflower rice, you will need just a head of cauliflower and a few simple ingredients like olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Start by rinsing the cauliflower well under cool water to remove any dirt or debris. Then, cut the florets from the head of cauliflower into small pieces. Next, place the cauliflower in a food processor and pulse until it is broken down into small, rice-like pieces.

In a large skillet or wok, heat some olive oil over medium heat. Add the cauliflower rice and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning or sticking. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then continue cooking until the cauliflower is tender and evenly cooked throughout.
