Read the label, if it says cook from frozen, then don't defrost it before cooking. If you don't do what the label says, the item will not cook properly, for example a cook from frozen pizza will be soggy, instead of crisp.
When cooking with oil it's actually safer to let the oil sizzle before you add the ingredients. With a wok it needs to be smoking.
Buy a cake probe if you bake a lot; it's a special rod that you put into the cooked item, to see if it's cooked through.
The best ovens are an electric convention oven, an electric fan oven, a rotisserie, a barbecue or a halogen oven. Most gas ovens unless they are very expensive or restaurant standard are not that good. If you have microwave, read the instructions and learn to use it as a useful cooking aid, rather than a device to heat up ready made items. For example cooking rice with boiled water in a microwaveable bowl is much better for you, than those rice pouches with processed ingredients.

here are hints born of experience and/or drilled into me by my mother who majored in home economics during the 1950's:
1) baking is rarely forgiving while cooking can be.
2) liquid measuring cups are different than dry measuring cups - not much, but still.
2) Never overbeat eggs! (ever wonder why some homemade cookies are so hard? they've been overbeaten)
4) Follow the steps of the recipe in order - cooking involves chemical reactions and not following the way the ingredients are supposed to be added can effect the taste and texture of the final product.

I went to school in England and we made scotch eggs one day and I was being cheeky as usual whilst telling my teacher I made it in England so its an English egg. My teacher said its a scotch egg where ever you make it because they are cold, ginger and smelly. I now live in scottyland and I've told a few mates what my teacher said.

Who actually use recipes while cooking non-fancy, everyday food? It's so weird for me! I never use recipes and never mesure anything, and my meals are always perfectly tasty.

I would try not to constantly flip my meat over while cooking, or overdo it as well. Trying to find the perfect balance of taste.
