Tips for food lovers



1) To help decrease strong smell of cauliflower when it is cooking, pop a piece of bread in the saucepan.

2) An easy way to separate egg yolks from whites is to break into your hand and let the white slip through slightly parted fingers.  You may find it easier to break into a cup first.

3) If you are cracking eggs or separating them and a piece of shell falls in, the best way to get it out is to use the egg shell itself as a scoop to retrieve the piece.




4) To see whether an egg is boiled or not just twist the egg on a table, if it twists fast it is boiled if not it is raw


5) When eating hot soup and bread, for a change, try seasoning the bread instead of the soup.


6) Freeze lemon juice in ice cube trays then when recipes call for tablespoon of lemon juice just toss in a cube.  Works for all citrus fruits.

7) Use the vegetable water from boiled vegetables for gravy, this way you get more flavour and don't waste the goodness that has come out into the water.

8) If you need to keep peeled potatoes put them in water then place a slice of bread on top, this stops them going brown
