Spice Tips

For warmth, add 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes or a pinch of smoked paprika. A squeeze of fresh lemon or apple cider vinegar at the end brightens the earthy caraway flavors.

Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheat beautifully. Serve with crusty bread or over egg noodles for a more substantial meal.
