One major important factor you missed, just keep adding more vegetables and cooking them less and less incrementally till you enjoy them more... Keep teaching yourself classical cooking methods and tweak them as you need. Balance your meals. pay attention to the amount of negatives you eat and once you reach that maximum don't eat another cookie that day... Hmmm..Did that make sense? I'm running late, i got to feed the chickens, the pigs, the turkeys, the dogs, the cats and the fish on this little hobby farm and then I have to water the plants...

Kitchen Tip: do not start cooking anything until all vegetables are peeled and/or chopped. Unless you have meticulously planned when to chop what during which downtimes. It will take longer to cook but you will feel much more in control. Something like: "Melt butter. Stir in Garlic. After 30 seconds, add chopped onion" -- if you haven't chopped the onion by this point you'll start off with a subpar base! Also something that helps is to identify at which part are you adding which seasonings. If you're adding a ton of dry spices together at different points, you can put them into a small bowl and measure them out in advance so you're not stressed timing the additions. This forces you to read the recipe a few times through and really understand it before you even start, so it can really reduce the stress once you get going.

I actually loved the water substitute hack , also works by adding coconut water instead of plain water to curries, desserts, etc. It turns out really flavourful .. especially in certain cuisines like Indian cuisine. I'm indian and have personally felt the depth of flavour this little hack brings about

Hey your right. I remember in one of her videos instead of adding plain milk she added tea. And I was like that’s so cool. Like I’ve never thought about it like that. I’m Indian too by the way 😅

In Korea, there is a specific word that describe the first tip (sweet and savory balance). It is 단짠, which is a combined word with 단(sweet) and 짠(savory or salty). People around the world would share similar tastes in terms of that balance.

My tip that my mother always said, "you can always add more, but you can never take out"

Great tips! My top tip would be: if you make things for a special occasion don't try something new, choose your signature dish and put all the love you have into it. Or even buy the best if you know great food places and still work on your cooking. New dishes are something to try without the pressure of an occasion. ♥️

Once you make a certain dish a few times, you understand why the ingredients are present in the dish. Then, you can replace the ingredients better.

Great content Inga! The #1 tip I use in my kitchen is physically assembling all of my ingredients before I actually begin, it stinks being side tracked by a surprise missing ingredient and trip to the store after you've begun cooking.

Hey Inga, thought it would be great if you would do a series on different spices, what they taste like, what they pair well with, and the health benefits. I am much older and have just gotten more into cooking more that meat than a meat and potato's, salt and pepper kind of guy. Want/need to learn more. Love the Asian cuisine. Food brings us together !

4:21 I swear Inga is one of the most adorable I've ever seen in my life

I don't care that they claim they are not chefs but if Inga opened up a restaurant, I'd be there every week!

I love how in the comments you can see people from all over the world writing their thoughts down. This channel does a really great job of appreciating different cultures and I love that! ❤️

Prepare the ingredients ahead of time and wash the dishes as you go. My dad is a chef and he taught me that.

Her voice is sooo soothing. And all the tips that she gave were surprisingly really insightful

I love that this channel does different types of things, while it’s all related to food, it has so much variety and it’s great 😍 And I love all the people here, Andrew, Inga, Rie, Alvin, and I miss Steven. (And of course we have Adam too 😌 and Annie though I’m not sure if I spelled her name correctly, sorry)

Can you please do Indian food? I really wanna see your take on it especially because you like working with rich smells so much !

She already did.

Number 10 is so so so important. It is so easy to get discouraged when you’re following a recipe and it doesn’t turn out like you expect and you beat yourself up over an error. Take a deep breath, reset and try again another time. For me, I kept screwing up even something simple like meatloaf. But by attempt three I really had a product I liked and now I pack delicious meatloaf sandwiches sometimes for work!

I'm someone who always get some weird and wacky ideas in the kitchen, and well, my tip is to not hesitate to go bold. Just try it. Try that strange idea. Buy that ingredient you've never heard of. You might hate it, you might love it, but you won't regret it.

"you might hate it, you might love it, but you won't regret it" I think that's a great way to think of a lot of things, thank you for this phrase!

its really awesome to hear the things you learned out of all your challenges! We really appreciate you sharing it. It's very important as well as cool to document these things so others can get a better underststanding of where it (what you learned) comes from and also gives others ideas to try in their cooking! We definitely also try to do that in all our experiment videos too to share what we learned. Would love more videos like this from everyone!

The best kitchen tips that I’ve learnt most recently I learned them through watching your videos. 1. Mixing the flour and water and other ingredients when you are making dough is a game changer. I used it first when making dumplings, but now I do it for every dough 2. When chopping vegetables fine, hold the tip of the knife and do the cutting by moving the knife with the handle. Way quicker and easy to make it fine. My mom was shook when she saw how finely I chopped the cabbage for the dumplings

Tips: do your grocery shopping when you're not hungry. And the same logic also applies to me during cooking. I normally don't cook anything when I'm too hungry - it messes up the recipe or the flavor as I tend have a "flavor bias taste" when I cook something.

inga is my role model! so wholesome and gracious and soothing to listen to... you’re amazing, inga!!

Your relax presentation skills and positive way of presenting is off the charts. Keep up what you’re doing 👍🏼👏🏼

Measuring everything into specific measurements such as in grams or ml has really helped me improve my cooking. It not only has made me more capable in recreating the same good outcome on consistent basis but has also increased my ability to better change the recipe around to meet my own preferences in iterations following the original attempt.

Oh these are very helpful! Thanks for the tips :)

Jesus the scallion segment from Taiwan scared the bejeesus outta me 😂 Inga, I'm definitely with you up there on the scallions

I just love you, Inga, and all of the members of the group(s) you work with! Not everyone thrives at BuzzFeed, but your cohort have found the formula!

Kitchen Hack Summary of Inga: "Dont be too hard on yourself." thanks Inga. its a good reminder to enjoy and be creative in cooking and not to stress out on perfecting it every single time or for the first time. 😅😁

the seemless transitions of the numbers i- 😭🤚 I'm here for it

the first tip is really useful in my vietnamese family cooking. my mom always makes sauce for dishes using a nice amount of sugar to make the food taste amazing :)

Great recipe tips! Thanks a lot😃

I love this so much. Great tips.

I love this learning series bc more people need to talk about how the most important part is making mistakes/improvements :D

love your challenge videos Inga!

HI INGA! Thanks for being so relatable! :)

Love watching your videos. Greetings from South Africa.

its so useful...thanks inga 😊

Inga is a 3 Michelin star chef but doesn't know it yet. keep up those excellent cooking skills. 🧆🍝🍲🥧

The liquid tip helps with dishes like oatmeal too! Like orange juice oatmeal (with whole blackberries on top. I've done this with blood orange juice once too), vanilla almond milk, chocolate dairy/hazelnut milk, or even regular dairy milk with lavender (the lavender taste doesn't come out with nut milks tho). You can also make a smaller bit of oatmeal with balsamic vinegar as a kind of piquant touch for stuffing-like purposes

I love swapping things with water, they really does make things more flavourful.

Inga I enjoy seeing your food plating, so much quality involve

Please film and post a 24 hour challenge! Btw great video!

My tip for kitchen stuff is if you are making homemade pasta noodles, add a teaspoon at a time for smoothing it out and rolling it into your desired shape before cutting it into those shapes, like I do perfectly round spot pasta noodles rather than long strings.

Love u and all ur videos.

I swear they uploaded Andrew's video yesterday, turns out I just watched it yesterday so that's good!

aahhh i can't wait you guys to travel againnn

as soon as i saw inga i was intrigued

I would love tips from Inga and everyone at ATE on what they do for filming and editing because the SHEER QUALITY I CANT-

I’ve only started cooking recently, and I do trial and error since I can’t really follow exact recipes when I don’t have all the ingredient.

when tasting for final seasoning- after salt, the most likely thing that’s wrong is not enough acid. If youre tasting a dish at the end for seasoning and you added more salt and it still tastes flat/lifeless/not as intense as you expected, add a like splash of vinegar/wine/citrus juice in and 8 times out of 10 that’s what was missing. I’m not a person who like sour foods but I’ve reluctantly kept rice wine vinegar in my regular rotation of sauces/seasonings a) bc I love East Asian food and it’s basically non negotiable in that type of cuisine and b) it’s a more subtle/sweet acid for people who arent as sour-forward as Adam Ragusea

Inga!!!! You look so beautiful!!! And great content as usual. Super helpful tips ❤

i love this

I think feeling the textures of food really helps especially when it comes to baking and dealing with dough / flour based dishes. It's really like that old saying :- when you cook, cook by feeling and tasting.

Inga, you, Alvin, and Andrew have inspired me to quit my 11 years of teaching and go into 2 years of culinary school. *Chef’s kiss! 👨🏻‍🍳

Love you inga

Inga, your eyebrows are more beautiful than any Bob Ross painting (with or without cabin)! ❤️

The three base tips I learned working in hospitality are: don't follow recipes that don't use grams; always weight everything before starting the recipe; don't improvise if it's required to weight something. 😁👍🏻

I wish I lived in an area that had specialty grocery stores. All I've got is Wal-Mart, Food Lion, and Aldi, and well maybe the food section of Marshalls. I really want an Asian grocery store and a farmers market would be great

You should try making foods but only can use apricot and rhubarb to flavor them.

i used to make spam fried rice with plain spam - now i add soy sauce and sugar to glaze the spam before adding the rice
