Read the recipe twice
Once for ingredients, once for technique. Halfway through is the wrong time to discover you needed to chill the dough overnight.

From the kitchen
A few little things Roma's learned
Avoid bubbles in your baked goods
When baking, always gently tap the pan on a flat surface a few times to remove air bubbles and help even out the batter.
Pat things dry
Wet chicken steams instead of crisping. Wet vegetables turn soggy. Paper towels are an underrated kitchen tool.
Taste as you go
Adjust salt, acid, and seasoning before serving. The dish that needs a squeeze of lemon at the end is almost every dish.
Embrace the sheet pan
Most things roast better in a single layer with room to breathe. Crowding traps steam and you lose the caramelization.
Buy a good thermometer
Stop guessing. An instant-read thermometer takes the anxiety out of chicken, steak, baked custards, and bread.
