Saute [03h]
============================

Difficulty
------------------
10/10


Summary
------------------
Sauteing is the art of lightly frying ingredients - an easy task in real life.
Not so much in Cooking Mama land as you must have all ingredients ready at
the same time. This step causes problems for many people as it relies solely
on guess work (or beforehand knowledge from a practice session).

Your aim is to cook the items long enough for double circles to appear on each
of them. Cook the items too long and you will loose a circle (silver medal) or
gain a cross (bronze medal).


In Depth
------------------
Sauteing can be summed up in 5 simple rules:

1) The smaller/finely chopped the item is, the faster it will cook.

2) Meat usually takes the longest to cook.

3) After adding an ingredient, wait approx. 3 seconds before adding the next.

4) Stir constantly!

5) And lastly - Practice Beforehand!!!


When your saute session begins, look to the top of the screen. The order of
the items that are shown - is the order that you should add them to the fry
pan.

Example
--------
The top screen shows these ingredients: Pork, Carrot, Onion

You would add the Pork, count 3 seconds and add the carrot. Then another 3
seconds before the onion is thrown in.

If you see puffs of smoke, it means you need to stir the items. I tend to keep
the ingredients always moving, because leaving them in one place means faster
cooking speed (not a good thing if 2 items are ready, when one isn't ;)).

In all honesty, there really is no clear method to sauteing. Some of the rules
I've stated above can be overruled and/or broken in some cases (see: large
onions & bamboo shoots :p). The best way to get gold is to practice the step
before hand.


Tips
------------------
+ I've said it before, I'll say it again: practice, Practice, PRACTICE! :)
