To keep any meat from being dry, pour some chicken broth over it after cooking. This will make it taste much juicier and revive a bird that tastes dry.
-
When you’re cooking on multiple food stations, it’s often difficult to keep tabs on them all. To stop pans boiling over, place a wooden spoon across the top of the pan.
-
To remove all the grime off your wooden cutting board, sprinkle some coarse salt onto the board and use half a lemon to scrub at it. Let it sit for 5 minutes, and then rinse it all off using warm water.
-
When slicing that cake or dessert, use a hot knife. This will ensure that you are able to cut a perfect cake slice without it falling apart and looking messy.
-
Use old jars to store cooking and eating utensils, then label them accordingly. This will help you become more organised and provide more storage space.
-
Forgot to chill your drinks when guests are about to arrive? To chill drinks quickly, just wrap a damp paper towel around the bottle and pop it in the freezer for 5-10 minutes. Remember not to leave it in there any longer than 10 minutes though, as bottles could crack if they are left in freezing temperatures long periods of time.
-
If you want a richer and creamier hot chocolate, then try melting supermarket truffles into some hot milk and stir.
-
Turn some magazine holders on their sides for some more shelf-space for light objects.
-
Peeling potatoes are one thing that many people cannot stand, but submerging them in hot water will make this chore far easier. Leave the potatoes in there for a few minutes and simply scrub, boil and then put them back into cold water.
-
Need some more storage space? Why not hang your pots and pans from a ladder on the ceiling to create some more room. Saw the ladder down to your desired size, and use a few screw hooks, eye bolts, and a chain to hang it from the ceiling.
