SUMMARY: - If you’re a fan of marshmallows, then you should know how to keep them soft and tasty. All you have to do is put them in a jar with brown sugar. - Want an ice-cream that won’t be a threat to your weight? Just put a stick in a cup of yogurt and let it freeze in the freezer. - When you cook pasta, finish it for 1-2 minutes right in the pan with the sauce. - Your brown sugar clumped into pieces? A piece of soft white bread will solve the problem. Put it in a jar with the sugar and it’ll break back down into sandy granules in a few hours. - The easiest way to peel a kiwi looks like this – chop it off at both sides, take a spoon, and push it in between the fruit and the skin to scoop out the flesh by turning the fruit until all the skin falls off the back of the spoon. - If you've cut an avocado in two, save it from turning brown by putting a few drops of lemon juice on the pulp. - To make your fresh herbs last longer, store them in the fridge with their stems in a glass of water, like a bouquet of flowers. - Want your burgers to cook evenly? Make a small indent in the center of it with your thumb when it's on a grill or a pan. - Want to whip cream but have no blender? You can simply shake the cream in a mason jar. But, hey, don't forget to put the lid on! - Keep a knife under really hot water for a minute, then dry it with a paper towel if you want to make a clean cut through any sticky dessert like a cheesecake. - If you've overcooked chicken and it's too dry, cut up the pieces, add some mayo, some spices, and your favorite veggies. - When you cook pancakes, you should watch for the bubbles to appear on them. - Crying again while chopping an onion? No more of that! Just cut off the root before you slice it. - When you cook something with chili peppers, coat your hands with any vegetable oil to protect the skin. - To make perfect sunny-side-up eggs, crack them in a preheated pan coated with oil, then add a bit of warm water, and close the lid for 45 seconds. - To whip egg whites faster and better, make sure they’re cold and add just a bit of salt to them before you start the whipping process. - Before putting a steak on the skillet, dry it off with a paper towel, ensuring it will caramelize, not steam. - Cook whole butternut squash in the microwave for up to 3 minutes. After that, peeling it should be easy.
