  • Season Wisely: Don't be afraid to season your dishes generously. Salt and pepper are essential, but you can also experiment with herbs, spices, and citrus zest.
  • Cook Pasta Al Dente: Cook pasta until it's al dente, or slightly firm to the bite, to achieve the perfect texture.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When cooking meat or vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and may result in steamed instead of seared food.

  • Plate Creatively: Take the time to plate your dishes attractively. This will make your food more visually appealing and enjoyable to eat.
