Soak Wooden Skewers for Safety
Soak Wooden Skewers for Safety
Soaking wooden skewers before using them on the grill is a simple yet crucial step for ensuring that your skewers don't burn or catch fire during cooking. When you soak the skewers in water for at least 30 minutes, the wood absorbs moisture, which prevents it from getting too hot and burning when exposed to high heat on the grill. This ensures the skewers remain intact, and the food stays securely threaded.
