- Food needs acid. Salt and fat isn't enough.
- Sugar goes in places you wouldn't think it belongs. Don't fight it
- Brine your white meat and age your red meat.
- Dry your produce after you rinse it. Veggies cook WAY better when they are dry, it is a HUGE difference. (Same goes for meat, actually)
- Clean you area as you go. Seriously, do this.
- Mise en Place is everything. Get some little bowls for specifically this purpose. It might feel extravagant, but it is absolutely worth it. Prep and measure everything ahead and future you will thank you. I got my bowls at Daiso for cheap, and they are cute.
- Use a trash bowl to collect your garbage while prepping food. It's so much nicer than having to deal with the trash can.
