Did you know that…
…you can keep apple slices from
browning after peeling them by
letting them sit in water with a little bit of lemon juice. Drain well before
serving.
…whole tomatoes can be washed
and frozen in containers or plastic bags. When you are ready to use simply thaw
and the skin will slip right off and they are ready to be used in cooking.
…fresh herbs will
keep fresh longer if you wrap them in a slightly damp paper towel then seal in
an airtight plastic bag. Store them in the refrigerator.
…salty
tastes in gravies, soups, stews etc., can be eliminated by dropping a piece of
raw potato into the liquid for a few minutes before removing from the stove.
The potato will absorb all the salt.
