Cooking tip: When making stir fry, it’s important to bloom your spices by getting your pan or wok hot. You want the oil to shimmer, but not smoke when its added to the pan. By adding the ginger and garlic to the hot oil, it activates the aromatics in those spices, allowing the flavors to transfer well to the rest of the ingredients in your recipe. You want the ginger and garlic to pick up a hint of color, but be careful not to let them burn.
