As a restaurant owner, in addition to excellent culinary skills, cost management is key to success.According to statistics, the average UK household throws away food worth about £680 per year (equivalent to NT$35,000), and the Case family is a prime example—they usually discard more than half of their food: “I know I’m wasteful, but I like the freshest, best-quality ingredients!” After hearing this, Oliver went straight to the Case family’s home to personally teach them how to be smart and save. He decided to start with herbs: “Throwing away herbs is like throwing away flavor and money.” There are actually many ways to extend the life of herbs—hanging them in a warm place allows them to dry easily, and adding a bit of olive oil and salt can turn them into herb-infused oil, which paired with cheese makes a great spread for breakfast toast.
