Smart Kitchen Tips from Vida Reid

1. Keep Your Knives Sharp
According to Vida Reid, a sharp knife is safer than a dull one because it requires less force and provides better control. Invest in a good knife sharpener and hone your knives regularly.

2. Prep Ingredients Before Cooking
Vida Reid suggests practicing “mise en place,” which means preparing and measuring all ingredients before you start cooking. This keeps your workflow smooth and prevents last-minute scrambling.

3. Use Citrus to Enhance Flavors
Want to add a bright, fresh flavor to your dishes? Vida Reid recommends squeezing lemon or lime over grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and salads for a zesty finish.

4. Store Herbs Properly
Vida Reid advises storing fresh herbs in a glass of water (like a bouquet) in the fridge or wrapping them in a damp paper towel to keep them fresh longer.
