Time Saving Tips
in the Kitchen
-After washing greens, pat dry with paper towel. Place a few dry paper towels in the container
to absorb moistures. This will extend the life of your greens.
-Ensure oil when frying is at 365 to 375 degrees. Use a deep-fat frying thermometer to help
take the guesswork out of monitoring the frying temperature. The correct
temperature will keep food from sticking and create a better crust.
-When cooking pasta, boil one or two minutes less than
recommended. Finish the pasta in the
intended sauce. ‘This will allow the
pasta to absorb the flavor of the sauce.
-Use recipes as a guide to creating your own dishes. Get creative with flavors and
ingredients.
-Use a hot metal spatula for smoothing frosting. Dip the frosting spatula in a tall mug of
almost boiling water for a couple of seconds and then frost.
-Use an ice cream scoop to evenly fill cupcake liners.
-When boiling potatoes, always start potatoes in cold
water to ensure even cooking.
-Store spices in a cool, dark place away from the stove.
-To remove stains from a wooden cutting board, use salt
and a lemon. Rub for 1-2 minutes and
wash. This will make the wooden cutting board look better.
-Use high quality
ingredients to obtain a high quality finished product.
