Tips
When it comes to ingredients substitution, it's important to consider flavor profiles and textures. For example, if a recipe calls for matcha but you don't have any on hand, you could try using green tea powder or even spirulina powder for a similar color and flavor. Similarly, if a recipe calls for raspberries but you prefer a different fruit, such as strawberries or blueberries, you can easily swap them out while still maintaining the vibrant color and sweet-tart taste. Finally, if a recipe calls for whipped cream but you want a lighter alternative, you could use coconut whipped cream or Greek yogurt for a creamy texture with a hint of tanginess. Being open to substitutions and experimenting with different ingredients can lead to delicious and unique creations.
