- Don't overcook the vegetables: Succotash is a quick-cooking dish, so be careful not to overcook the vegetables. Overcooked vegetables will lose their flavor and texture.
- Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a bit of heat with cayenne pepper or chili powder.
- Serve immediately: Succotash is best served immediately after it is cooked. You can also store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
