- Substitute half plain yogurt for mayonnaise in dishes like tuna, chicken or egg salad.
- To prevent marshmallows from drying out, store them in the freezer.
- Use an egg slicer to cut your kiwi.
- Sprinkle a small amount of salt in the frying pan before frying bacon. It keeps it from splattering.
- An easy way to skin garlic cloves! Dry the garlic or baby onions in the sun before using them (or even before storing them). Rub a few drops of oil on your palms. Then rub the garlic or baby onions between your palms. The skin will come off easily.
- To prevent your eggs from cracking while boiling them, just add a pinch of salt.
- To sweeten curd that has gone sour whisk in some fresh milk.
- Halve an onion and insert a fork into one half. Dip the flat side in oil and use it to grease a pan before making pan rolls, etc. The food won’t stick and will drink less oil.
- While cooking vegetables, cover the pan with a lid and pour a little water on the lid. As the dish simmers, drops of water condense within the lid and fall on to the vegetables. You lose fewer nutrients cooking this way.
- After rice is boiled, strain off the water and use it in soups and gravies. The residue is extremely nourishing.
- To reduce the pungent flavor of green chillies slit them and boil in water for two to three minutes before use.
