CHEF RAMSAY'S COOKING TIPS

· Prepare for Success - Before you begin cooking a dish, have all your ingredients prepared and ready to use.

· Patience Is A Virtue - When cooking a steak, be patient and make sure the pan is sizzling hot before adding the meat. This ensures a perfectly seared meat.

· The Spice of Life - Always keep garlic ready to use in the freezer. Blitz a few cloves in the blender and freeze them in an ice cube tray. They're perfect for use in sauces and stews.

· Don't Be Wasteful - After cooking chicken, fish or beef, don't toss the leftover bones - they are key to making perfectly flavored stock! Simmer the bones in water with a carrot, an onion, several peppercorns and a bay leaf for one to two hours.

· Keep It Hot, Hot, Hot! - Never open the oven when baking. The cold air will sink your cake.

On the two-hour milestone 100th episode, Chef Ramsay challenges the teams to shop on a budget and transform four classic ingredients into elegant dishes worthy of fine dining. Four special judges critique the teams' creations, and HELL'S KITCHEN welcomes some special guests to the show's most elegant dinner service to date.
