Some kitchen traditions might seem unusual at first glance—until you discover the magic behind them. When I first saw my grandmother pressing cloves into an onion before adding it to a simmering pot, I thought it was just an old-fashioned quirk. But after one bite of her dishes, I realized this simple trick was her secret to incredible flavor.
