4. Avoid Common Cooking Mistakes

It’s tempting to replace ingredients in recipes with healthier options — full-cream milk with skim, for instance. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to eat better, but it’s important to be aware that often, you can’t just replace one ingredient with another without adjusting ratios or adding (or removing) something else to compensate. So next time you’re switching brown sugar for white, make sure you’re not doing it wrong.
