Tips for Cooking Asian Food
To make sure that your Asian food actually does turn out better than take-out recipes, I’ve compiled a list of quick tips!
Fresh vegetables: I know, I know. It’s tempting to use frozen vegetables or canned ingredients because they are readily available but trust me when I tell you that you must use fresh vegetables! This is key to having your dish turn out perfectly.
Gather up the ingredients first: Sometimes, recipes call for unique ingreients that you might not have on hand. Head to the store before you plan on cooking and pick up all of your ingredients beforehand. So many times people try and substitute for things and then wonder why they didn’t turn out. Don’t do this and make sure you plan ahead!
Know your rice: Rice is not all made equal. Make what the recipe calls for whether thats long grained rice, brown rice or jasmine rice. It makes a difference!
