Did your last dish turn out a failure because of a small mistake? Wondering why this time the flavours tasted different from the way you expected? Not being an experienced home cook should not demotivate or stop you from trying new recipes. However, many times we end up making our version of a dish that doesn't taste as it should. Here are 5 things you need to keep in mind while cooking if you wish to get the desired taste.
Read recipes carefully
Not reading the entire recipe of a dish before attempting it is like not reading the entire chapter for an exam. Doing this won't give you good results. Read the recipes till the end and try your best to follow them entirely.
Do not ignore the sticking part
We often ignore the way our food sticks all over the utensil when we're not using a non-stick pan. Omelettes and many such dishes require a non-stick pan, and you should not be casual about it.
Believe in experiments
Doing experiments with food is one of the best and satisfying things for someone who loves cooking. Don’t be afraid of it. Just use your brain and go wisely about it.
Do away with over frying or almost burning a dish or ingredient
You must have experienced a particular ingredient getting over-fried and the whole dish tasting unbearable because of it. You can prevent such things from happening by giving the required attention to the dish you are cooking.
Do not go for too much of anything
Extra sarso or rayi can ruin your fish curry. Too much haldi or dal in khichdi does the same. In addition, you should always use anything that comes under the category of garam masala very carefully in an appropriate amount.
So, the moral is to pay attention!
