Partially chill meat so it becomes easier to slice into thin strips. If you are making Asian dishes, such as Thai or Chinese food, this is a great idea. When the meat is frozen slightly, cutting it is easier because the fibers in the muscle do not tear or stretch when slicing. Allow the meat to thaw prior to cooking though, so that it can cook evenly.

Make sure that you cut your meat extremely thin as well as on the bias for stir-fry. Very often this is difficult to master and takes a lot of time. Once the meat has become more firm, you should slice against the grain at 45 degrees.

If you find yourself with leftover homemade sauce, freeze the leftovers in ice cube trays. All you need to do next time you want to use it, is reheat in a saucepan. Freezing the sauce in this manner will keep it fresh and ready to be reheated.
-
Keep spices in a dark and cool place. Shelf life can be significantly decreased for those spices which have been exposed to too much light, dampness and heat. Keeping your spices in darkened, cool areas will lend extra longevity and flavor. Meals prepared with fresher spices are simply more delicious.

There's something you can do to save your effort and your sauce. In a bowl, mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with a couple of tablespoons of water. Add the mixture into sauce and set to simmer in order to thicken it. Add the starch solution slowly, and stir constantly so that the sauce does not become too thick.
-
If you are seasoning some meats, you should try a small piece of it before you cook all of it. Foods like meatballs, hamburger and even meatloaf may require careful seasoning. Avoid cooking the entire batch immediately after seasoning the meat. Cook a tiny portion of it in the shape of a patty first. The aroma of the food as it cooks will also give you a clue to the amount of seasoning you need to add.
+
Try different liquids in recipes calling for water or milk to add some new flavors to your meals. Use chicken broth, beef, or juice in places where you would normally use water. As an alternative to milk, try using thinned sour cream, yogurt, soy milk or buttermilk. Using different liquids is an easy way to make an old dish more interesting and more nutritious.

You can dry out your own tomatoes. You can use Roma tomatoes cut lengthwise, or ripe tomatoes sliced about a half inch thick. Place the resulting tomato pieces on a rack, then salt their exposed flesh lightly. After placing the rack atop a cookie sheet, allow the tomatoes to dry for 10 hours in an oven at 190 degrees. Put the tomatoes in plastic bags, and store them in the freezer. Dried tomatoes can be placed into a jar that is filled with fresh herbs and olive oil. Tomatoes stored in this fashion will last for two weeks in the refrigerator.

Invest in a knife sharpener to make cutting any ingredient easier. Dull knives are not only difficult to cut things with, but they are also very dangerous to use. It's easier to hurt yourself with a dull knife by forcing it to cut through something than by using a sharp knife to easily slice through it.
They will soak up much of the water, as if they were a sponge. Try using a clean, wet cloth and wiping them off instead.

This will make reheating the sauce easy, as you can pull out as many cubes that you need for the next meal. The sauce is still good after it is frozen.

When cooking pumpkins, first set the pumpkin upright; then slice it down the center, cutting it in half. On separate baking sheets, place both halves with the cut side facing down. On both sheets put a tiny amount of water, then at a temperature of 350 degrees bake the pumpkin for about an hour.

Not all fruit freezes well, but this way, you can prolong the freshness of certain fruits and enjoy them later. Additionally, you may be able to keep some fruits frozen and enjoy them during months when they are not available in stores.

It is better to sprinkle your seasoning little by little rather than putting it all on at the start. This method will ensure that the flavoring is spread out and even, and that the ingredients are enhanced to the best they can be.

Try making your own dried tomatoes. To be able to dry them yourself, cut the tomatoes half an inch thick, or you should cut Romas lengthwise in half. Lay your tomato slices across a cooling rack with the cut-side facing up, and salt them lightly. The next step is to put the rack on an old cookie sheet and then place in an oven set at 190 degrees for at least 10 hours. You can store your dried tomatoes in your freezer. Another way to preserve your dried tomatoes is in olive oil, with herbs for added flavor, in a glass jar. Refrigerate and use within 2 weeks.

Fresh garlic has a sweeter taste. For you to figure out if garlic is still fresh make sure it isn't soft, shriveled or bruised and it has firm skin.
