Practice Management

Cooking is part of work-life balance or blending.  If you work at home full time or part time, you obviously have an opportunity to treat yourself with a home cooked meal.  This is especially true once you cut out the long commute to and from work.  So, this post is not irrelevant to Third Wave lawyers and carpet commuters.  Many spare room tycoons enjoy eating their own cooking.

In this regard, Real Simple has provided us with the 7 most common cooking mistakes we make.  In brief they are:

1.  You do not read the recipe all the way through before you start cooking.

2.  You overcrowded the pan.

3.  You did not preheat the pan, and your fish fillets turned out soggy.

4.  You cooked past in a small pot and ended up with a pile of gummy noodles.

5.  You sauteed wet greens.

6.  You used dried herbs in a recipe in place of fresh ones, resulting in a heavily over seasoned dinner.

7.  You fried food in oil that was not hot enough.
