3 Ways Chefs Can Shave Off Time

By Paula Hess


It's complicated to talk about the amount of prep time that individuals have when it comes to cooking, in general. Even some of the smaller meals you can think of may take too much time for individuals to invest in, especially for those who have spent hours being at work. However, when it comes to cooking in shorter amounts of time, there are a few tips for even the most experienced of chefs to consider. Here are just 3 methods to ensure that said times are cut down on as much as possible.

Before anything else, it's worth noting the importance of vegetarian meals. One of the reasons why I say this is because, as opposed to meat-centric dishes, vegetarian entrees entail less prep time, whether this has to do with the actual cooking itself or what have you. You should also consider the fact that you actually have more options than you probably realize. Vegetarian omelets, sandwiches, and even burgers can be made, each of them satisfying in their own ways.

Stick to pre-cooked meals, if you aren't confident with your culinary skills at the onset. For example, if you are looking to bring a sense of protein into your meals but do not feel like putting forth the effort for it, a simple rotisserie chicken can help matters. You can also slice and trim the chicken as you see fit, so it's not like you lack total control when it comes to pre-cooked ingredients. Make it a point to see that these ingredients are cooked fully, though, in order to reduce the risk of foodborne illness.

For those who are truly low on time, you have the option of a microwave as well. Yes, it may not be nearly the same as a stove or grill but the truth of the matter is that it can heat anything relatively quickly. It doesn't matter if it's a simple bowl of soup or even a sandwich you'd like to heat up; your microwave can help matters. Bear in mind safety procedures, associated with your microwave, and you will benefit from quicker meals this way as well.

With so many tips to think about, as far as cooking is concerned, these are just a few to keep in mind. Everyone has their own lives to take into account and I believe that solutions like these can help to make life even easier. Do not think that your level of help will stop at these pointers, though, since it's likely that there are many others to take into account. Conduct further research and, before long, you'll start to see how your cooking time may be shortened even more so.
