The article explores creative cooking tips from renowned chefs to enhance flavors in everyday dishes. Chef-owner of Murano, Hartnett, recommends grating garlic using a microplane for better flavor infusion and preventing burning. Graves suggests adding coffee to slow-cooked meats like short rib for depth. Wong recommends using oyster sauce to boost umami in various dishes, while also sharing tips for achieving perfect caramelization in ragu and making a standout toastie. These techniques can elevate standard recipes into memorable culinary experiences.
As for the grated garlic, it's quicker, easier, and you get all the flavour without having to remove the skin, which won't go through the microplane holes.
To enhance the deep, roasted flavor of slow-cooked beef, try adding a shot of espresso—just enough to provide an intriguing depth, not overpowering.
For a crunchy toastie crust, scatter more cheese just before flipping, and spread mayonnaise on the outer sides for an even golden color.
Fry mince for ragu in large patties to maximize caramelization, or use the oven for cleaner cooking, though it may take longer.
