9 Cooking Tips That Save Time & Boost Flavor
Tip 1
Pre-Chop Veggies
Store pre-cut veggies in airtight containers to save 15+ minutes daily without losing crunch or nutrients.
Tip 2
Use Garlic & Ginger Paste
Keep ready-made garlic-ginger paste in the fridge to skip chopping and enhance every Indian or Asian dish.
Tip 3
Soak Pulses Overnight
Soaking cuts boiling time in half and boosts digestion. Plan ahead for faster dals and curries with deeper flavor.
Tip 4
Season While Cooking, Not After
Add salt and spices as you go—not at the end—for deeper, more balanced flavor in every bite.
Tip 5
Use Pressure Cooker Smartly
Cook rice, dal, or even sabzi in a pressure cooker within minutes—lock in nutrients and flavor
Tip 6
Prep Masalas in Bulk
Make your dry or wet masala base in advance and store in jars. Saves time and keeps taste consistent.
Tip 7
Keep Lemon Juice & Zest Handy
Freeze lemon juice in cubes and dry the zest. Adds a fresh burst to any dish without last-minute squeezing.
Tip 8
Use a Salad Spinner for Herbs
Wash and dry coriander, mint, or basil in seconds! A salad spinner keeps herbs crisp and ready-to-use all week long.
