Cooking tips!!

Before I give you these cooking tips I would like to say that I got all of my tips from http://www.e-cookbooks.net/tips.htm if you want to find even more tips check this website. Again I did not make these tips and I give full credit to who did.

I will add new tips everyday.

 

How to use chopsticks-~

"Place the first chopstick so that thicker part rests at the
base of your thumb and the thinner part rests on the lower side
of your middle fingertip. Bring your thumb forward so that it
traps the stick firmly in place. At least two or three inches
of chopstick should extend beyond your fingertip. Relax.
Now position the other chopstick so that it is held against
the side of your index finger by the end of your thumb.
Tap the ends of both sticks on the plate, while holding them
at a slight angle to the table. Allow them to slide just a
little so that the ends line up. Place a little pressure on
the top chopstick. It will pivot on your index finger just
above the second knuckle. Remember: the bottom chopstick is
stationary. The tip of the top chopstick will move towards
the tip of the bottom chopstick.Encourage this. Hold those
tips together firmly enough to grasp a piece of food and
lift it off the plate. Place delicately into your waiting
mouth. Although there's no need to stoop, you may wish to
lean over your plate a bit during your first attempts.
It might save you a clean-up!"

 

All about storing cheese~

Store cheese in your refrigerator, which approximates the
temperature of aging rooms. Keep it wrapped tightly in plastic,
away from air. Air helps mold grow on cheese. If you get a little
mold on the outside, just cut it off. The English say if mold
won't eat your cheddar it can't taste very good.
Bring cheese to room temperature before melting. Melt cheese
over a low heat to help prevent toughening and separation of
oils and liquids.
Most ripened or aged cheese is low in moisture content and
can be frozen without drastic flavor and texture changes. Thaw
slowly in the refrigerator for 24 hours or more. If frozen for
several months, the cheese may dry out somewhat and become
crumbly when thawed. 


 

 

 


All about food

Here are some stuff that, yes! I made myself! I know surprising since everything else above came from other websites, but no! I decided that this time I was going to write something my own. Yay! Oh I almost forgot, enjoy!♥

 

Here are some healthy foods to eat if your on a diet, or even if your just a healthy eater!

Carrots and cucumbers- I know not many people like them but if you dip either one of these in salad dressing, they actually taste pretty good!

Have a salad every once and a while! If you think it's nasty plain, add some stuff. Such as bacon bits, if you use a small size it's only about fifteen calories. Add some dressing! Croutons (Little bread squares). Even Add some fruits! Do whatever you want to make it too your liking! ♥

 

Here are some healthy foods that go great with peanut butter!!

1. Sliced apples. To add some more flavor sprinkle brown sugar on top!

2. Celery! This has got to be my favorite, if you like raisons those also taste good on top.

3. This one came from a girl in Winthrop, she says that she likes peanut butter on top of oreos!

If you have anything else that you like with peanut butter please tell me! I'm very curious!
