If you find yourself short on friendly words, try writing down a few positive affirmations or compliments. They can act as a substitute and help you convey warmth. Additionally, consider drawing inspiration from personal experiences or sharing anecdotes that reflect kindness.

How can I adjust the recipe for a larger gathering?

To scale this recipe up, simply multiply each ingredient by the number of servings you need, keeping the ratios the same. Ensure you have enough space on the front burner to cook everything evenly, and remember to maintain a low temperature to preserve the flavors.
