Cooking is one of the finest skills to study on your own. Cooking well can improve your health, save you money and be fun. Better yet, cooking is a skill you can always improve. Even the greatest kitchen veterans can learn a little something new. Here are a few handy tips for getting better results out of your kitchen:
To keep your tasty homemade ice cream contained in a sugar cone, stick a marshmallow in the bottom of the cone before filling it. The marshmallow will plug the hole at the bottom, preventing drips and leaving a tasty treat when you or your child reach the end of the cone.
Keep a pack of unflavored, unwaxed dental floss in your kitchen. If you need to make clean, precise cuts, dental floss is typically much more effective than using even the sharpest kitchen knife because of it's small width. Simply pass the piece of dental floss through the item you are cutting for a nice, clean slice.
Learn to enjoy brussels sprouts. Not many people enjoy brussels sprouts if they are cooked in the traditional manner of boiling them. Sprouts can be delicious if you try different methods of cooking, such as roasting them with carrots and parsnips for a delicious side dish. They are delicious if pan-fried with bacon. These cooking methods give them a nutty flavor. Always choose small brussels sprouts, as the larger ones tend to be very bitter.
Television
Start watching cooking shows on television. Not only are they fun to watch, but they are also a great place for you to learn new recipes and cooking tips or glean ideas for entertaining. These shows are constantly coming up with new ideas, so you will always be learning something about cooking.
Hopefully, some of these ideas will prove useful to you. Not only is cooking a field in which there is always something new to learn, it is a very personal skill set. You retain full control of what you learn and how you apply it. Keep your eyes peeled for more tips that you can use to cook the way you want to.
