Secrets of the Best Chefs

ALWAYS WARM the bowls before serving pasta. It will keep the
food hot longer.
HOME COOKS have a tendency when making Italian food to
overuse garlic. Garlic should contribute to, not overwhelm, the
food that you’re making.
WHEN COOKING with olive oil, use a type or brand that
doesn’t impart a lot of flavor. If you want to add a specific
olive oil flavor to a dish, drizzle on a good finishing oil at the
end.
