Chef's Notes
Treat your red onions like royalty by letting them properly soak in that citrus bath; rushing this step leaves an unwelcome, fiery burn on the palate.

Keep a hawk-like gaze on your pistachios while they toast, as the thin line between perfectly golden and completely burnt is a matter of mere seconds.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Distracted by a text message while toasting your pistachios, leaving you with smoking black charcoal nuggets that smell faintly of regret and ruin.

Royal Court Comedy
I asked the Jester if this dish was fit for a King, and he replied, 'Only if the King doesn't mind eating something that looks like fancy sand from a desert vacation.'
