Small moves, better meals

Three kitchen tips worth keeping

Save a mug of pasta water

Before draining pasta, scoop out some of its starchy cooking water. Add it a little at a time to help cheese and oil cling to the noodles.

See it in the garlic pasta recipe →

Give vegetables room

Spread vegetables out on the pan so hot air can reach their surfaces. Crowded vegetables tend to steam instead of browning.

Roast vegetables for salad →

Go easy on pancake batter

Stir just until the dry ingredients are moistened. A few small lumps are better than overmixing, which can make pancakes dense.
