Helpful Hints for Quick Cooking

No one wants to spend all day in the kitchen. Cooking can be as easy as 1 2 3 with these helpful tips:

1. The French phrase mise en place means having everything ready beforehand. If the ingredients are chopped and measured before you start - it makes preparing the dish much much easier!

2. Instead of dirtying another bowl - use ziplock bags for marinades. Pour and spoon in the ingredients and then add the meat to refrigerate. Throw it out when your done for an easy clean up.

3. Waiting for the water to boil can set you back several minutes when trying to cook a quick meal. Speed up the process by starting with warm tap water in the pot. Don't forget the lid on top to save even more time.
