Pro Tips & Cooking Tricks

1

Choose the right pot size - too large causes excess evaporation, too small risks boiling over

2

Build layers of flavor: sauté aromatics first, brown proteins, deglaze with liquid, then simmer

3

Stir occasionally but not constantly - prevents sticking while allowing proper browning and texture development

4

Add quick-cooking ingredients last - leafy greens, fresh herbs, and cooked pasta go in final 5 minutes

5

Let it rest 5-10 minutes before serving - allows flavors to settle and makes portioning easier

6

Deglaze properly - scrape up brown bits with wine, broth, or even water for rich, developed flavor

Frequently Asked Questions

Start with pasta dishes, stir-fries, or rice bowls. These are forgiving, require few techniques, and ingredients cook together naturally. Try one-pot spaghetti, chicken and rice, or vegetable stir-fry over rice cooked in the same pan.
