Conserve Cooking Utensils by Planning Ahead
To use the fewest cooking utensils possible, first measure out all the dry ingredients, then the wet ingredients. This way, you can reuse the measuring spoons or cups, and only have to wash them once.
Keep Your Remote Clean While Cooking
If you like to channel surf while cooking, place your remote control in a resealable plastic bag or plastic wrap. The buttons will still be visible, and the control will stay clean.
Prepare for the Unexpected While Cooking
Professional cooks keep small plastic bags nearby in case both hands are covered with dough or food and they need to answer the telephone. Or, you could put your hands in plastic bags before mixing meatloaf or kneading dough.
Get Gloves on More Easily
Sprinkle a little baking soda into each of your latex kitchen gloves and they’ll stick less when you’re putting them on and taking them off.
Using Plastic Wrap
Keep plastic wrap from clinging to itself when you’re trying to dispense it by storing it in the refrigerator. The colder temperature will keep it from sticking.
For the Best Potholders
Your potholders don’t have to look stained and dirty. Wash them frequently, and after each wash, spray them with starch. Spray starch repels grease, so your potholders will stay unblemished.
Measuring Sticky Liquids
Before measuring a sticky liquid like honey, coat the inside of the measuring cup with vegetable oil or nonstick cooking spray. The liquid will pour out easily. You can also run the measuring cup under hot water.
