How to Tell It's Done

until it softens

Tips

Add by cooking time: what needs long (onion, carrot, meat) goes in first, and what burns fast (garlic, dry spices) goes in last, only until fragrant.

Common Mistakes

A gentle simmer, not a boil: a hard boil dries the food out and clouds it, a slow simmer cooks it evenly.

More Ways

In butter with a tablespoon of oil, fry onion until it starts to turn golden, add the vegetable (mushrooms) and fry about 10 minutes, then a container of heavy cream (250 ml) with salt, black pepper and a pinch of nutmeg, and bring to a boil.
Blanch a firm vegetable (green beans) first, and season the cream with garlic and nutmeg.
