10 Surprising Tips From Food Network Chefs

Check out these amazing tips that you can use every day!

Anchovies
Anchovies don't get enough respect. I like to incorporate them in my sauce to add depth with a little bit of saltiness. They're great to work within9 Italian dishes.

2. Arborio Rice
I grind Arborio rice and use it instead of breadcrumbs on most of my fried foods. It has a higher sugar content than wheat, so it caramelizes faster, which helps prevent fish or delicate vegetables from overcooking.

3. Balsamic Vinegar
Balsamic aged for seven years or more adds tang to sauces, makes a wonderful steak sauce (with equal parts maple syrup) and rocks with chocolate and berry desserts.

4. Bay Leaves
A single leaf can add rich flavor to soups and stews. For more intensity, I toast and grind fresh bay leaves to add to cucumber-yogurt sauce.

5. Brown Butter
I baste meat with brown butter — it insulates the meat and gives it a nutty flavor.

6. Cane Syrup
I use this purest form of sweetness whenever possible. It's incredible in coffee drinks.

7. Celery
I shave celery into parsley salad and serve it with anything fried to cut the grease.

8. Chili-Lime Rub
I rub a whole chicken with chili-lime powder and roast it. It's one of my favorite chicken recipes.

9. Cilantro
Try using cilantro instead of basil in pesto, then toss with pasta or drizzle over grilled fish.
Aarón Sánchez
Heat Seekers

10. Cinnamon
It's common in both sweet and savory Mexican foods. We use it to add depth to braised meats, like short ribs, and to add complexity to stews, mole and other sauces.
David Suarez
Rosa Mexicano, multiple locations?
