Curating with flavour
Flavours should be balanced. Use flavour to boost meals however avoid hiding the natural taste and aroma of the primary ingredient.
Refrain from using flavour to hide low-quality or poorly prepared products.
When dishes are cooked over an extended period of time, add the flavour sparingly
Remember to always add seasonings a small amount at a time, flavour can intensify and overpower a dish. Be sure to taste and season foods frequently during cooking.
