    Always keep canned tomatoes in the pantry. Particularly tomato paste. It’s a great ingredient that can add a depth of flavor to a variety of dishes.

    Whole spices really do make a big difference and it’s worth knowing how to use them even if you don’t make them part of your everyday cooking. When its time to make a special dish, using whole spicessl that you grind fresh will be worth it.

    Use acid in your cooking. Citrus, viniger, wine, yogurt, etc will often upgrade a dish.

    Parchment paper/aluminum foil is your friend. Minimize your time scrubbing dishes by minimizing the mess you make when baking food.
