- Cardone stalks — Before using, make sure to trim the stalks and remove any tough outer strings. Blanching the cardone stalks in boiling water for a few minutes can help reduce their bitterness.

- If cardone stalks are not available, you can substitute them with celery stalks for a similar texture.
- For an extra kick of flavor, add a pinch of saffron threads to the stew while simmering.
- Serve the stew with a dollop of Spanish-style aioli for a creamy and tangy twist.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and enjoyed the next day, as the flavors tend to develop and intensify.
