2. Forgetting to read the entire recipe first

应该每周清洁一次冰箱，但如果你觉得太麻烦，至少一个月彻底清洁一次。
5. Leaving fruits and veggies on the counter vs. fridge
5.把水果蔬菜放台面上还是放冰箱里
The refrigerator will increase the shelf life of just about every fruit and vegetable, but it also takes away some of the flavor, so if you plan on eating your produce right away, leave it out on the counter.
冰箱能延长几乎每种水果蔬菜的储存时间，但也会破坏口感，所以你马上要吃掉的东西就放外面吧。

Season in layers. You wouldn’t want to put all the ingredients in a pan and then season all at once, as the flavors may turn out a bit off.
要分层腌制，不能把所有食材都放一个平底锅里，然后一起腌，味道会变差。
9. Overcrowding the pan

You can put enough food in a pan that the bottom is fully coated, but each individual piece of food should have its own space to ensure it cooks evenly and thoroughly.

10. Thawing meats on the counter
10.肉放台面上解冻
Bacteria will immediately start growing once the meat becomes warmer than 40 degrees. The safest three ways to thaw meat are in the microwave on a low heat, in the refrigerator, or in cold water.
肉的温度一旦高于40度（约4摄氏度）立刻开始滋生细菌，最安全的三种解冻肉的方法就是用微波炉低温解冻、冰箱解冻或置于冷水中。
