... It's much easier to peel garlic cloves by smashing them with the flat of the knife (skin slides right off). -Al [/ QUOTE ] Even easier if you microwave them for about 8-10 seconds. No knife/smashing needed.

what else don't i know? [/ QUOTE ] Two to start: That you're often more likely to OVERCOOK food when your temperature is too low. Let your pan heat up before you start cooking. That just because you cut up a whole onion, you don't have to USE the whole onion.

I suggest getting The Professional Chef. That book will show you every basic technique you'll ever need to know.
