Halve the quantity of salt in recipes for baked goods that don't call for yeast. For recipes with yeast, reducing salt may not be as feasible, because some salt is needed for the leavening action of the yeast to work properly. It's possible to boost the flavor of foods with certain cooking techniques, states the American Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND). Store food properly, because poor storage affects flavor. Another mistake that reduces flavor and nutrients is overcooking, so prepare food in such a way as to preserve taste, texture and visual appeal. For a vegetable dish with a sweet, smoky flavor, brush vegetables with oil, sprinkle with herbs and roast in a very hot oven. Red, yellow and green peppers, along with hot sauce, add great flavor to dishes. Experiment with high-quality condiments such as salsa, flavored mustard or horseradish, to add pleasing zing. Small amounts of bold flavors, such as cilantro or chipotle pepper, can bring a dish to new heights. The acid taste in grated citrus peel or citrus juice can balance flavors, says the AND. For poultry, meat and fish, high-temperature cooking methods like grilling or broiling intensify flavor, but be careful not to over-brown food. Another tip for enhancing meat dishes is to caramelize onions to use in a rich sauce. To make spaghetti sauce more savory, put in fresh-chopped onions and garlic. Fresh herbs, such as basil, can impart more flavor than dried herbs.
