  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your dishes the best flavor. If possible, try to use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Don't Overcook: Overcooking can toughen meat and vegetables and make them less flavorful. Cook meats to an internal temperature of 145°F for poultry, 160°F for ground beef, and 165°F for other meats. Cook vegetables until they are tender but still have a bit of a crunch.
  • Season to Taste: Taste your dishes as you cook and adjust the seasonings as needed. Adding a little salt, pepper, or other spices can make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Garnish: A simple garnish can make your dishes look more appealing and taste even better. Try adding a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a drizzle of olive oil, or a squeeze of lemon juice.
