LUMPY GRAVY: To prevent lumps from forming when making gravy or thickening stews, mix the flour or cornstarch with a little salted hot water. EGGS BOILING: Add a little salt to the water in which you boil the eggs, and if the eggs crack, the whites will not seep out. PEELING: 1. The eggshells will peel off easier if a teaspoon of salt is added while boiling the eggs. 2. After boiling the eggs, plunge them immediately into cold water for 10 or 15 minutes. They will then peel beautifully. FOOD ODORS ON HANDS: Rid your hands of garlic or onion odors by washing them with a mixture of (baking) soda and water or by rubbing them with lemon juice. WASHING GLASSWARE BY HAND: When washing dishes by hand, eliminate soap film on glassware by adding a little vinegar to the rinse water. STAINLESS STEEL FLATWARE WARNING: If you should ever wash your sterling silver in the dishwasher, make sure you do not wash your stainless steel in the washer basket at the same time. This would damage the stainless. This sounds backwards, but it's true. GREASY, SMELLY PANS AND DISHES: When washing very greasy or smelly pans or dishes, put a few tablespoons of vinegar in the dishwasher to cut down the grease and to help remove the odor. May the Lord bless you and keep you |
