Be A Better Chef With These Simple Cooking Tips By: Jere Hines
A lot of people consider cooking to be tedious. This article has many excellent tips that can help you do just that.
Apples are used in cooking mostly during the fall, but you must make sure they are properly kept so that they do not rot. Air that is warm or dry will cause apples to spoil, so it is important to place them in a plastic bag, knotted loosely and keep them in a cool place. Keep checking on them though, otherwise one rotten apple will spoil the bunch in no time at all.
Add some interest to a basic ear of corn or dinner roll by using flavored butter. Allow the butter to be at room temperature when serving. Then mix in some herbs, sauces or spices to add some extra flavor. You should give BBQ, lemon juice or honey a try.
To avoid missing the sound, use another timer, such as a watch. If you have a watch timer on you, you will hear it anywhere in the house.
When using fresh herbs in your cooking like parsley or basil, bundle them together and cut them with scissors instead of chopping. By using this technique you can chop many herbs in a short amount of time, and they will be much lighter and fluffier, without the wetness that you get when using a knife.
When chopping fresh herbs, you should shake some salt on a cutting board. This adds some extra flavor to the herbs while also keeping them on the board. To avoid serving a dish that is too salty, do not add extra salt to the meal you are preparing. The salt that is added to your dish with the herbs will provide enough flavor.
If your recipe calls for a liquid, try using something other than water or milk. This will add a spark to that tired old dish. As a substitute for water, try broth. Juice can work as well. Some people use the water left over from boiling vegetables. Instead of milk, try sour cream, yogurt or buttermilk. Using liquid substitutions in your cooking can increase nutrition and give a standby dish a new flavor.
Try to use things that are colorful when you are cooking. Using colorful ingredients makes the dish pleasing to the eye, and it also provides you with a balance of nutrients. Pick nice looking garnishes as well; try tomatoes, cilantro, carrots, or parsley. If you use color, people will want to eat your foods.(read entire article)(posted on: 2013-04-06)
