Another way Mejia said you can get creative is by using baking soda: “I’ve learned from Italian chefs that adding baking soda to tomato sauce-based dishes can balance out some of the acidity,” she said.Chaos cooking can sound like just throwing a bunch of random ingredients into the same pot or pan, but Chavez said to resist doing this and to cook each ingredient separately.

If you’re making a meal with a bunch of veggies, keep in mind that some need to cook longer than others. For example, potatoes are thicker than carrots, so they should be boiled in different pots.
