Know When To Season

Proper seasoning is extremely important when it comes to cooking. Doing it at the wrong time can make or break certain dishes. And although we tend to add spices during or at the end of cooking, some foods needs to be seasoned from the start. For example, steaks should always be salted before cooking but not peppered until after. For pasta bakes, always remember to salt the pasta water, then season again to taste when adding the pasta to the rest of the ingredients.
