Check out these five kitchen tips that will make your life easier. How many times do you struggle to get the store sticker off of your produce, I know it drives me crazy. Next time try using a sharp edged vegetable peeler and peel the sticker right off.
Do you ever want to use your plastic wrap and you find the edges are torn and stuck to itself? It takes me forever to find the end that tore. Hold a clean toothbrush parallel to the roll of plastic wrap. While rotating the roll, rub the bristles along the surface of the plastic wrap until the torn edge is visible, then unravel the stuck part.
Have you ever run out of cupcake liners? Next time cut some 5” squares from oven safe parchment paper. Firmly press one over the bottom of a glass, making creases to keep it in place. Place them into a cupcake pan, fill and bake according to recipe directions.
What do you do when the aluminum foil isn’t wide enough to cover your food? Cut off two pieces of foil and roll or crimp the two pieces together on one end of each piece to make the foil larger.
When you buy a roll of parchment paper it usually wants to roll up, when you cut it and lay it flat on a baking sheet. If you lightly spray the baking sheet with cooking oil and press the parchment paper on top it should stay in place.
