After you take the time to read the entire recipe, not only will you avoid the common mistakes chef Pati Jinich warns about, but you'll also have a better time cooking.
"[It's] very important that we learn from the French," Jinch said, adding with a laugh, "I usually say that the French are fussy, and that we Mexicans are very easy and accommodating in our cooking. But there's one thing — I mean, the French have many wonderful things — but one thing that I find that is essential is their concept of mise en place," which roughly translates to "everything in place" – in this case meaning knives, pots and pans, cutting boards, etc.
"Before you're going to make any recipe, make sure you have all the ingredients at home," Jinich added. "If not, you'll [be] halfway through cooking and the [recipe] says: 'And now add the Worcestershire sauce,' and then you go try to find it, and you don't have any at home, and the onions are already browned!" She added, "So make sure that before you make a recipe, you have all those ingredients on the counter and try to prep as much as you can. Have the onions chopped, the tomatoes diced, the cheese shredded, whatever it is, try to have the ingredients as you would need to add them to the recipe before you start cooking."
Reading the recipe and prepping properly will not only ensure your dish comes out well, but that you enjoy yourself. As Jinich affirmed, "It makes it a much more pleasurable experience. You end up with a much better product in the end and you enjoy your time cooking more."
