P.S

Some cooking tips and facts you didn't know!!!

1. Preparation is key: Always read your recipe first to make sure you have all the necessary ingredients and equipment before starting.

2. Sharpen your knife: Cooking with a dull knife can be more dangerous than using a sharp one as you might use more force and the knife could easily slip.

3. Cook pasta 1 minute less than the package instructions and cook it the rest of the way in the pan with sauce.

4. Avoid overcrowding your pan when sautéing. Too much food in the pan will steam it rather than brown it.

5. Rest your meat: Allow your meat to rest after cooking for a few minutes to allow juices to redistribute evenly.

6. Taste as you go: This is one of the best ways to improve your cooking.

Cooking facts:

1. The smoke point of an oil is the temperature at which it stops shimmering and starts to smoke. Once an oil hits its smoke point, it starts to break down and can give food an unpleasant taste.

2. Washing mushrooms can cause them to become waterlogged and can make them slimy when cooked. Instead, wipe them with a damp cloth or a brush.

3. Cutting onions releases a gas which causes a stinging sensation when it comes into contact with your eyes.

4. Microwaving does not reduce the nutritional value of vegetables more than other cooking methods.

5. Contrary to popular belief, adding salt to your pasta water does not make it boil faster, it actually raises the boiling point slightly. But, it does add flavor to the pasta.

6. Raw vegetables are not always more nutritious than cooked ones. Cooking vegetables can actually help break down their cell walls and make their nutrients easier to absorb.
