A few quick notes

1. Get the oven ready first

Start with the oven-preheating step in the recipe. Then use the preparation steps that follow to get the food ready for the hot oven.

2. Set out the first ingredients

Look through the first cooking step and have its ingredients ready before you begin. It is easier to give the pan your attention when you are not still looking for the next item.

3. Have the sauce liquid measured

Measure the liquid before starting this sauce step. That makes it easier to follow the stirring or whisking sequence while the flour mixture is in the pan.

Get to know the ingredients
