| "Thanks so much for making the evening an incredible success. The menu turned out to be absolutely fabulous. I am glad that I left that part up to you. The food was unbelievable." |
| "The best part was eating the fruits of our labor." |
| "Just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed your class - I wish it wasn't over so soon! Made the kirsch souffles for dessert at a dinner party this weekend to rave reviews. Thank so much for everything - I really learned so much." |

| Cooking tips |
| Taste everything |
To learn to be a good cook, one must taste everything. Taste the raw ingredients (if safe and possible), taste the food while cooking, and be sure to taste the food before serving.
|
| Fresh Herbs |
Always use fresh herbs instead of dried when available. Even in winter, try to have some fresh parsley on hand to add a bright taste to foods.
|
| Don't Crowd |
Don’t crowd the frying pan when cooking. Crowding will cause the meat or vegetables to steam instead of sear and will hamper browning.
