Do not keep your herbs or spices in a place that is not cool and dark. Putting them in a warm, lighted area can reduce their useful life, due to light and heat exposure.

Add oil to the pan on the side so when it reaches the food it is hot. This will make your food more flavorful when it is ready to serve.

When cooking or preparing for someone important, such as your boss or a new date, it is best to cook food that you are good at. Don’t attempt a dish that is new or very far out of your experience level. This will make cooking less stressful.

TIP! There’s a neat trick you can use to save your sauce. Mix two spoons of water and one spoon of corn starch in a bowl.

Poultry seasoning is very versatile and can be used in a variety of ways not just with poultry. It can spice up snack foods such as roasted pumpkin seeds, or provide a little zing to your breakfast menu when used on your morning eggs. Everyone will be wondering what your secret ingredient is!

Fresh Ingredients

TIP! When trying out a new marinade or seasoning, test it on a small piece of meat before you cook the entire meal. Items such as burgers, meatballs and other meat dishes need deliberate, specific seasoning.

When you are cooking, use fresh ingredients instead of frozen or dried ones for the best results. Fresh ingredients can really enhance the flavor of your meal, as well as be more economical to prepare.

If you cooked with a sauce, save the leftover sauce in an ice cube tray that you can freeze. When you do this, making a quick meal can be accomplished by simply reheating by using a saute pan. Nothing to worry about as the sauce will be fine even after it’s been sitting in ice cube trays.

TIP! Texture and taste don’t have to suffer when you are trying to lighten up your mashed potatoes. Cauliflower makes for a great substitute to help drop the fat and calorie content.

By using the advice provided to you, you may find cooking to be an interesting activity. You can learn a lot about food by simply cooking it. You can be even more self aware, as you discover what things you enjoy making. By enjoying it and having fun with cooking, your meals can start tasting better.
