The truth is that lots of HACKS makes our lives easier. The question is, how many of us know most of them and for those who do know, how often do they use them.
Therefore, the following are some that I use frequently that might help us all. 1.EGGPLANTS: How to remove the bitterness in eggplants before cooking them. First rinse thoroughly, pat dry and slice in whichever form you prefer. Place in a flat container, sprinkle with salt, allow them to sit there for about 30 to 40 minutes to remove most of the liquid it contains and in the process, eliminate the bitterness. The nice thing is that the less liquid it contains makes them cook perfectly and not soggy. 2. SALADS: How to keep Romaine, and other leaves for salads fresh. If the product is not pre-washed, I cut the bottom and discard, detach the leaves of romaine, cut in half, rinse them and drain in my spinner, place a piece of paper towel in the bottom of a container, place the dried leaves and cover with another piece of paper towel. Then, I seal the container as best as possible and refrigerate immediately. 3. LEFTOVERS: As we all know; leftovers are part of our lives. You make ribs, meatloaf, beef stew, etc. and end up with leftovers. Do you throw them away? Hopefully not. The same goes for Salads. Therefore, don’t throw away your leftover salad from last night dinner and do this: First, make sure that the family salad bowl doesn’t get salad dressing, that everyone takes their individual serving and then use the salad dressing of their choice in their own bowls. Therefore, if there is any salad left in the family bowl, place it in a glass container, put a piece of paper towel on top to keep it the moisture out, seal it well and use it tomorrow for lunch inside your sandwich or as a salad lunch. TOMORROW, we will discuss Baking Measuring Ingredients/tools, stay tuned!
