    I am all about mise en place. My wife doesn’t want to dirty a few extra dishes and ends up trying to do too much while things are cooking and stressing herself on out.

      I was honestly the same when I was starting out in the kitchen and quickly learned I’d rather clean a few extra dishes, than get myself overly stressed!

        If I’m doing a lot of different ingredients, I’ll chop, put in dish to store, and then layer the prepped ingredients on plastic wrap, payments, or wax pape in one or two bowls. Or even on the counter. Not as environmentally sound, but there are times where it’s more doable than separate dishes.
