Top 10: Mom's Cooking Tips

There is no greater wisdom in the kitchen than that of one's mother. The women who gave us life are also expert gastronomes, and it is from them that we learn the most about cooking. Here we present the top 10 cooking tips from mom. A new survey compiles the 10 most used tips by cooking mothers. According to over 5000 women, these are the things you should know and apply if you want to succeed in the kitchen. 1.- Cook with love It may sound strange, but there are studies that lead to believe that mood can change the taste of food. Whether this is true or not, mothers recommend cooking with heart; the result will always be better. 2.- Always taste Adjusting seasoning is not an exact science, which is why moms always taste before serving, ensuring that the flavors of the dish are just right. 3.- Less is more It seems that many moms do not agree with molecular cuisine or avant-garde plating. A simple recipe full of flavor is what they recommend. 4.- Keep a recipe book A respectable mother has a book, a journal, a file on a computer, or whatever keeps those recipes her own mother taught her to create eternal and timeless. 5.- The sofrito is the base There is nothing that a mixture of sautéed onion and garlic cooked slowly and well-seasoned can't improve. This is the base that most moms prefer for their dishes. 6.- Improvisation is the key to success It doesn't matter how the recipe is supposed to be; it doesn't matter how they prepare it in the restaurant; adding a bit of your own style is what will set the dish apart in the taste of your loved ones. 7.- Reheating is good According to the surveyed mothers, a stew or braise is always better the next day. They assure that the flavor intensifies, so leaving leftovers is always a good idea. 8.- Nothing frozen Mothers are against pre-prepared foods; a good dinner, breakfast, or meal is made fresh. 9.- Too much salt If a stew is over-seasoned, the solution is very easy: add potatoes. Their texture will help absorb the excess salt, and the flavor of the preparation will be perfect. 10.- Delicious and healthy Moms prefer to cook with fresh vegetables and meat; they believe that the quality of the product improves the dishes and do not look favorably upon preparations that are completely fried or contain too many chemical additives.   Mother's Day Recipes   Flower Bunch Cookies   Vanilla Cupcakes with Flowers   Raspberry Charlotte     And you, what do you cook with your mom?
