Healthy habits of cooking by Mumbai chef

When peeling vegetables consider preserving the scraps in your freezer to make a broth later

Soak raw ingredients for a couple of hours after rinsing your ingredients

Achieve a balance among the fundamental elements of a dish, such as salt, bitterness, sourness and umami, to make the most of your food

When frying, initiate with high heat and gradually reduce it during the cooking process to prevent excessive oil absorption by the food

Techniques such as grilling, roasting, dehydrating and fermenting are preferred over frying or pan-searing as they retain more nutrients
