Keep the first boil and the next step together
Read what happens once the mixture comes to a boil. Have the next ingredient or heat adjustment ready, and continue with the sequence the recipe gives.
Have the pan ready for its first job
Read the pan-heating step before beginning. Have the ingredients for that stage ready, then follow the heat and additions in the recipe’s order.
