Basic cooking tips

June 09, 2011 By: Jocelyn Iyog Category: Cooking, Tips & how to’s

When preparing meals, a few basic kitchen rules apply. It doesn’t matter what is being cooked, these rules are not only good common sense, they could possibly save a life.

  1. Don’t be afraid to use your imagination. Experiment with different tastes and textures. You just might create something spectacular.
  2. Turn pot or pan handles inward so they are not a temptation to curious youngsters eager to see what’s cooking.
  3. Use proper heat settings for the food being prepared. Seldom is it necessary to cook at the very highest setting.
  4. Use care with baking recipes. If your recipe calls for ½ teaspoon of baking power, use that specific amount. It could mean success for failure of your project.
  5. When boiling or steaming foods, use care when removing lids to avoid burns.
  6. When frying foods, make sure to shield the cook and others from splattering hot oil.
  7. Wipe up spills immediately.
  8. Thoroughly clean ovens and stove tops on a regular basis
  9. Wear clothing with sleeves that cannot drape onto cooking surfaces or into food.
  10. Never put water on a grease fire. Use salt instead.
  11. Keep a fire extinguisher nearby.
