Sometimes in life, we have to acknowledge that nobody knows what they’re doing quite like the pros. So if you’re looking to level up your cooking game, it may be a good idea to take tips from the chefs who have been in the game for a while. Here are some tips from famous chefs that you may find useful.

Put Olive Oil in Your Pasta Water
You probably already know the value of putting salt in your pasta water in order to season the pasta, but did you know that tossing a bit of olive oil in there too can help the pasta from sticking? Gordon Ramsey sure did.
Fry Twice
This tip from Marcus Samuelsson is specifically about fried chicken, but it can really be used to make any fried food extra crispy. After frying it once, give your food a bit of time to rest, and then toss it back in the fryer for a second time.
