1. If you happen to over-salt a pot of soup, just

drop in a peeled potato. The potato will absorb

the excess salt.

2. When boiling eggs, add a pinch of salt to keep

the shells from cracking.

3. Never put citrus fruits(Oranges, Lemons, limes,

etc.) or tomatoes in the fridge. The low

temperatures degrade the aroma and flavor of

these fruits.(That's why our tomatoes don't last

in the fridge)

4. To clean iron cook-ware, don’t use detergents.

Just scrub them with salt and a clean, dry paper

towel.

5. When storing empty airtight containers, throw

in a pinch of salt to keep them from getting

stinky.

6. If you are making gravy(stew) and accidentally

burn it, just pour it into a clean pan and continue

cooking it. Add sugar a little at a time, tasting as

you go to avoid 'over-sugaring ‘it. The sugar will

cancel out the burned taste.

7. Burned a pot of rice? Just place a piece of

white bread on top of the rice for 5-10 minutes to

draw out the burned flavour. Be careful not to

scrape the burned pieces off of the bottom of the

pan when serving the rice.

8. Before you chop fresh red peppers, rub a little

vegetable oil into your hands and your skin won’t

absorb the spiciness.

9. If you aren’t sure how fresh your eggs are,

place them in about four inches of water. Eggs

that stay on the bottom are fresh. If only one end

tips up, the egg is less fresh and should be used

soon. If it floats, it’s past the fresh stage.

10. To banish ants from the kitchen, find out

where they are coming in and cover the hole with

petroleum jelly(Vaseline). Ants won’t trek through

the jelly. If they are coming under a door, draw a

line on the floor with chalk. The little bugs also

won’t cross a line of chalk.

11. Don’t store your bananas in a bunch or in a

fruit bowl with other fruits. Separate your

bananas and place each in a different location.

Bananas release gases which cause fruits

(including other bananas) to ripen quickly.

Separating them will keep them fresh longer.

12. To keep potatoes from budding in the bag,

put an apple in with them.

13. If you manage to have some leftover wine,

cocktail drinks at the end of the evening, freeze it

in ice cube trays for easy addition to sauces

(white wine works wonders in sauces, i don't joke

with them) in the future.

14. After boiling pasta or potatoes, cool the water

and use it to water your house plants. The water

contains nutrients that your plants will love.

15. When defrosting meat from the freezer, pour

some vinegar over it. Not only does it tenderize

the meat; it will also bring down the freezing

temperature of the meat and cause it to thaw

quicker. # Note every woman should have vinegar

in her kitchen.

16. Do you cry while peeling off onions, then try

this. After peeling off your onions, refrigerate the

onions for at least 5minutes, then dice it. You will

be glad you did.

17. For aluminum pans that are looking dull, just

boil some apple peels in them. This will brighten

up the aluminum and make your house smell

yummy.

18. If your salt is becoming lumpy, put a few

grains of rice in with it to absorb excess

moisture.

19. Always keep an aloe Vera plant in your

kitchen. It’s invaluable when you scrape your arm

or burn your finger. Just break off a leaf and rub

the gel from the inside on the injury.

20. When making a soup, sauce, that ends up too

fatty or greasy, drop in an ice cube. The ice will

attract the fat, which you can then scoop out.

This works wonders

21. To reuse cooking oil without tasting whatever

was cooked in the oil previously, cook a 1/4″

piece of ginger in the oil. It will remove any

remaining flavors and odors.

22. If your milk always goes bad before you can

finish it, try adding a pinch of salt to the carton

when you first open it. It will stay fresh days

longer.

23. If two drinking glasses become stuck together

after stacking, it’s not impossible to unstick

them. Just put ice in the inner glass and dunk the

outer glass in warm water. The warm glass will

expand and the cold glass will contract, making

the glasses separate easily.

24. For splinters under the fingernail, soaking the

affected finger in a bowl of milk with a piece of

bread in it, it will help. 

Hope have solve some regrettable action In your

 kitchen.
