Preparing a good barbecue is one of life’s great pleasures that we share in our Yelow community.
However, if you want to become a licensed barbecue grill expert, you should know these crimes that screw up your bbq.
But don’t worry, here we also teach you how to deal with them, so get ready to delight everyone with these juicy tips that will finish cooking your mistakes.
3 Capital Crimes that harm your barbecue or BBQ
Do not wait until the charcoal is red hot.
If you don’t wait long enough, the heat will not be uniform throughout the grill and it will be difficult to get the meat to the point you want. You must keep in mind that the amount of charcoal and its quality directly influences the cooking and flavor.
It is important to consider the option of using the lid with less charcoal to obtain a slower and oven-like cooking. The good thing about using the lid is that the fuel adds flavor to your meat.
Grilling foods that are too fatty.
Salmon, chistorra sausage and other products with a lot of fat will cause the fat to fall into the coals and form an unpleasant smoke that leaves the food dry.
To cope with it you should avoid overly fatty foods, especially if it is saturated fat and avoid commercial sauces trying to make them homemade. In addition to tasting better and being healthier, the final dish will not be too greasy.
Salt before grilling.
Nowadays it is well known that salt takes out all the juices and dehydrates the meat, so you should know how and when to salt your food.
Dani Lechuca, Chef of the meat bar Bardeni, an expert in good meats, assures that
“The only thing that is certain is that it cannot be salted too early because it loses water, so it loses juiciness, it dries out.”
The ideal, especially in beef, is to salt it during and after cooking , except for specific exceptions, as in the case of a very fatty piece, which can also be salted just before roasting.

You know that friend who is there for everything? The one who always answers when you call him, who listens to you when you need him, who is always by your side. Well, something similar happens with the croquette, which can be served for dinner any day, as an accompaniment to any lunch, or as an appetizer before lunch. Today, January 16, is International Croquette Day, and at Yelow we want to celebrate it.
The croquette occupies an important place in our diet and it is also part of our tradition. A simple Google search returns thousands of interesting results and some links point to how to make the perfect croquette, although we all know which is THE CROQUETTE: the one your mother makes.
And although part of the secret is in the dough, there are also other elements that are key to making a good croquette. The utensils we use are of great importance for the success of our recipe. Here are four devices that will make it easier for you to achieve the perfect croquette.
Deep fryer. To ensure that it is cooked in the best way, the croquette should be made in a deep fryer. This way it will look the same on all sides, we make sure it does not break and it is cooked at the optimum temperature.
The croquette machine. On one side we put the dough, and with the help of a lever we turn it into three equal rolls. Now we only have to cut the dough to the length we want. A great help if you have to make a lot of dough.
Vacuum packing machine. Indicated especially for professionals who make a large amount of dough and can reserve a part to freeze. So another day we will only have to take them out of the freezer and fry them. To keep them better cold, nothing better than vacuum packing them first. This eliminates the spread of odors and they will keep better and longer.
Mini wooden pallets. The most original way to present this food. To place it in the center of the table or to put it next to each plate individually.
In Yelow you will find these and other items that will help you to get a high quality croquette. Visit us at our facilities in Parque Alban and you will be able to see everything we have for you. It’s that easy.
We are sorry to have to mention it, but it is a fact: this summer is coming to an end. September is just around the corner, that cursed month in which the calendar insists us to get back to the routine and resume all those tasks and obligations that for some days we have completely forgotten, focusing exclusively on disconnecting and recharging batteries. That’s assuming that you have enjoyed your vacation days, since some of us have continued working, in our case to offer you a lot of news for the return to school, of which you will soon have new news.
However, regardless of whether you are still on vacation or like us you are already working, we still have a few weeks left of the warm temperatures typical of this season, as well as all the plans that allow us to make: enjoy family and friends, make getaways to the beach (or mountain, according to taste), terraces, savor a good gastronomy full of seasonal products, accompanied by cold drinks. And one of our favorite options for this time of year are the mocktails.
BUT WHAT IS A MOCKTAIL?
The mocktails are cocktails or mixtures made with non-alcoholic beverages, especially indicated to enjoy outdoors in good company. Its origin comes from the English language, which uses the term ‘mock’ (which could be translated as simulated or pretended) to allude to its innocuous and alcohol-free character, although its preparation and final appearance is very similar to that of such well-known drinks as the Cosmopolitan, mojitos or caipirinha.
Beyond its non-alcoholic character, which is an interesting alternative for a wide public (drivers, pregnant women, athletes, teetotalers, children and a long etcetera), the main attractions offered by mocktails are their succulent flavors and low caloric content, which has made them a rising ‘healthy’ trend in the restaurant sector. In fact, more and more catering establishments are including in their menus a section specifically dedicated to this type of cocktail.
Most of them combine different flavors in the same preparation, although the base is usually fruit juices, with exotic or tropical seasonal varieties being widely used, which combined with other elements guarantee a high refreshing power. Other alternatives can be the introduction of cold infusions in the mixture, bubbles through tonic or soda, some textures playing with different types of sugar, crushed ice, solid elements (vegetables, blueberries, cherries or grapes) or mint or thyme leaves.
Either way, any combination is an option to keep in mind for those who want to maintain healthy habits even in the summer.
HOW TO PREPARE THE PERFECT MOCKTAIL
Regardless of the ingredients chosen to prepare it, one of the key aspects to achieve the perfect mocktail are the utensils to be used in the preparation phase (which is an art in itself) and, above all, in the final presentation of the cocktail.
So that you can surprise your customers or guests at home, our product catalog offers you everything you need for an excellent presentation, conquering both the palate and the eyes. The essential elements that you should count on are:
Cocktail shakers: the container in which to make the mixture can be made of metallic or transparent materials to refine the color in your first creations. There are models with different capacities (aspect to take into account depending on the number of guests) and it is advisable that they are equipped with gauges.
Mixing utensils: essential are strainers for juices with pulp, tongs for handling ice, crushers and specific knives for fruit or chopping ice.
Measurers: they will help you calculate the exact dosage of each ingredient so that the mixture is perfectly balanced.
Juicers: an indispensable element when working with fresh fruit, the basis for a large number of cocktails, with specific utensils for the most common ones, such as lime, lemon or orange.
Specific glassware: after all the love put into our creation, it is of vital importance to choose the right glassware, so that the final result is spectacular, enhancing all the colorfulness of the mixture and enhancing its flavor through the choice of the shape of the container.
Although one of the best ways to learn how to prepare excellent, tasty, colorful and refreshing mocktails is experimentation, it never hurts to have the advice of a professional to guide us in our first steps in this discipline. A good option could be to attend one of the cocktail workshops we have organized in collaboration with Pilsa Educa, such as the masterclass conducted by the bartender Antonio Garrido a few weeks ago, of which you can see a video summary here.
We recommend you not to miss the opportunity to participate in the next one we organize and also to consult our catalog of cocktail products, where you will find everything you need to start your career as an expert bartender.
You’ll see how soon you’ll start surprising with your own mocktails! And if you want, you can share your creations with us on our social media channels.
In recent years, a trend has burst onto the tourism sector: vacation rentals. This option, usually cheaper than the traditional hotel, is an excellent alternative for families, young couples or those with tight budgets who do not want to give up a well-deserved vacation, a romantic weekend getaway or discover dream destinations. We all love to travel and change of scenery, don’t we?
Leaving aside the controversy surrounding the damage that this new alternative for recreational accommodation may cause to the hotel and/or real estate sector, the fact is that platforms such as Airbnb, Holidu or Expedia have arrived, and they are here to stay. Things of the rise of the collaborative economy (and the great profitability they offer to the owner).
WHY CHOOSE THIS LODGING OPTION?
When planning a trip, the reasons for choosing this type of accommodation for short stays can be very varied, but there is no doubt that in many cases having your own kitchen is an advantage much appreciated by users, and not so much for reasons of savings (which also). The best thing about this type of getaway is to share that moment with your loved ones, and there is no doubt that we love to do it sitting around a table.
That is why the furniture, equipment and decoration of the kitchen space is vital to maximize the added value of any accommodation, since most of the time guests spend in the property will be spent in this area.

In summary, these should be the main aspects to take into account when designing this key space in the guest experience:
Balance between aesthetics and profitability / Very attractive environments can be created without having to invest large budgets.
Economy of elements / Open and uncluttered spaces are more pleasant and functional.
Furniture and utensils / Think of everything you would like to find in a holiday accommodation and equip it with everything you need so that no one misses anything.
Personality / It is important that your cuisine is different from the usual offer, to make it easier for visitors to remember their stay.
Good lighting / Opt whenever possible for natural light and warm tones, which are more welcoming.
By the way, after all this effort you should not neglect the photos! If necessary, hire the services of a professional. Don’t let your effort and investment fall on deaf ears by trusting in the artistic skills of that brother-in-law who took a twenty-hour course…
Follow these tips and rely onthe advice of our professional team, betting onthe quality of our range of products to offer unforgettable experiences to all your visitors.
