Whether you are cooking for a dinner party or meal prepping for the week, you want to make sure you are being mindful of your tasks. Before you start, it’s important to know how long things will take you and how much time you have to prepare. These tips will set you up to succeed.
Be Aware of Timings
Make sure you’re aware of the cooking and preparation times of each dish. Plan backward, so if your dinner is starting at 8 pm, then you want everything to be ready to be served by then. Check all the recipes for their timings and see how you can plan your cooking time.
Prepare
Prepare everything before, and make sure you have all your ingredients when it comes to the time to cook. If you can make anything the night before then take the time to do so. Preparation is key and will save you time in the long run.
Clean as you go
Cleaning as you cook is a time saver and will keep your kitchen more organized when more cooking is happening. Use the time when your food is in the oven to wash up, clean the counters or put the ingredients back in their place and get ready for the other dishes.
