Whether you are a hesitant novice cook or a perfect professional, anyone who steps into the kitchen needs a refresher of basic knowledge sometimes.
There are a lot of techniques in cooking, culinary terminology and even more tricks and advices, which is good to know and follow in order to get delicious meals always on the level. See our priceless 15 cooking tips.
1. Make notes as you study;
2. Read the recipe completely before you start cooking. If nothing else, this will prevent you from maintaining a very hot oven for too long;
3. Save fat. There are a lot of things you can do with the rest of the cooking fat - fry eggs, fry potatoes. The possibilities are endless;
4. Place a damp paper towel under the cutting board. This prevents the board from rotating while trying to do something with a very sharp knife;
5. Set your timer for a few minutes less than the specified time. Not only do all ovens heat up differently, but you'll never really know how yours handles a piece of meat or vegetables in the beginning. Rely primarily on yourself and your own judgment in the kitchen.
6. Cook willingly;
7. Believe in yourself! This is basic culinary advice. If something doesn't look right, it probably isn't. You know more about the food you cook than you think.
8. Add a little salt to everything. Yes, everything. Many culinary editors and critics are adamant that you should even salt desserts - salt helps to bring out, emphasize and give depth to all the flavors and will help your sweet treats to have a more complex taste;
9. If you bake regularly, buy a scale. After all, baking is a science and needs precise measures;
10. Clean while working. Instead of allowing dirt to accumulate while you are in the kitchen, clean up any debris, dirt and dishes and utensils in a timely manner. Although you will be bored at the moment, it will save you time and stress later;
11. Never use wet oven gloves.
12. Minced meat and garlic are cut by hand. Garlic presses are a waste of money - they compromise the texture of our favorite healthy vegetables, require time to clean and actually slow things down;
13. Remove the cookies before they are ready. Again - it is always better not to overdo it. And the cookies will continue to cook in the pan after you take them out of the oven;
14. Place a paper towel on the cutting board. If you have more than one thing to chop, it saves you a lot of cleaning time;
15. Print out your recipes. Because no one wants a raw egg all over their phone or tablet.
