I have learned a few things. Every week, every day, we learn new things. I have learned that pasta doubles in volume when you cook it (basic, I know), and to pay attention to measurements. Sixteen ounces of lettuce in weight is much, much, much more than sixteen ounces of salad in volume. I learned that if I am ever on Chopped, and one of the ingredients is tripe I need to marinate it in yogurt or milk so it doesn't taste gamey. I learned that aluminum pots ruin sauce, and 22 quarts of sauce is more than enough for 200 people. The list goes on and on, but I will spare you. Just remember, when heading into the kitchen, making mistakes is one way to get better at the things you do. Of course, avoiding the mistakes is probably the best scenario, but it doesn't always happen that way.
