\u0095 Always buy transparent (see through) containers for refrigerators, freezers, etc. These being see-through allow easy visibility of contents and eliminate searching, opening & checking or labelling of containers. <\/font><\/p>\n

\u0095 Spend 10 minutes each morning to make a list of work to be done with approx. time required. Pin it on your refrigerator door. Your work will get much more organised and you will find a lot of time saved at the end. Beside none of it will be left behind due to forgetting. <\/font><\/p>\n

\u0095 When very finely chopped greens or chillies etc. are required in a recipe, use a pair of sharp Scissors instead of a knife. The job will be made faster, more efficient and safe to cut. <\/font><\/p>\n

\u0095 To clean the surface of vegetables like potato, radish, sweet potato, carrots, etc. use a separate plastic scrubber or toothbrush kept for the purpose. Hold under running water and scrub. <\/font><\/p>\n

\u0095 Use a pair of scissors instead of a knife for cutting hot vegetables like chillies and also leafy greens like spinach, celery, coriander, etc. Your work will get done much faster. Take care to use a clean, non-rusty pair used only for kitchen purposes. <\/font><\/p>\n

\u0095 To get crystal clear ice cubes boil the water before pouring in ice cubes. Those made with plain water are usually foggy or opaque. <\/font><\/p>\n

\u0095 Soak burnt pans with a weak solution of domestic ammonia and water. After an hour rub with used lemon peels dipped in salt. Wash with soap for a clean, clean pan. <\/font><\/p>\n

\u0095 Sometimes oil begins to foam on heating to deep-fry and rises dangerously in the pan. To dissipate the foam adds a marble sized ball of tamarind to the oil. <\/font><\/p>\n

\u0095 Line the bottoms of your kitchen cabinet shelves with old newspapers. Instead of tedious cleaning, just discard and replace with fresh ones. Cheap and quick. <\/font><\/p>\n

\u0095 to avoid stains and smudges on costly cookbooks while following recipes, slip them, open page up, into a transparent plastic bag. <\/font><\/p>\n

\u0095 If you write your own labels for kitchen or storage containers, cover the labels with transparent cello tape so that do not smudge. <\/font><\/p>\n

How to pick the perfect fish – When choosing fresh fish, look for firm flesh, clear skin and eyes. Buy whole fish when possible so you can see these qualities. Always trust your nose and do not hesitate to ask to hold, touch and smell the fish and also trust your fish supplier.<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font>
<\/p>\n

How to bread foods – Before breading, dredge food items in flour. Dip the floured item in an egg wash (whipped eggs with a little milk), then drain off excess. With one hand, set the item in a shallow dish filled with your breading. With the other, scoop and pat the breading into place. Get creative with your breadings — breadcrumbs are fine, but other items can be used. (Crushed melba toast, cornmeal, crushed cereals, etc.)<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font>
<\/p>\n

Unclog your shakers – If your salt or pepper shakers keep clogging up, add a few grains of uncooked rice to them. The rice will absorb the moisture that causes the salt and pepper to clump. Dried peas will work just the same. If you have shakers that are not see-through, having the peas or rice in the shakers will alert you when it’s getting near the time to refill, they will start to rattle.<\/font><\/p>\n
