My tip is to do as much prep work as you can when you get home from the grocery store. Wash and cut vegetables, brown up hamburger for the week, etc.

My favorite cooking tip is to plan ahead. If your oven needs to be at 375 degrees to bake chicken, then you can't also be having french fries that need 450 degrees!

Unknown said...

my favorite cooking tip is always use fresh garlic. no need to chop, just crush it with your knife or smash it with your palm. the peel will come right off and it makes for a more "rustic" dish!

My cooking tip is that recipes don't have to be followed to the letter. Make substitutions, omit ingredients, or whatever. It's fun and tastier to make the recipe your own.

My favorite cooking tip is for when I have extra drippings from any meat I roast. I add the drippings to chicking or beef broth and freeze it in an ice cube tray. I use this for extra seasoning for stuffing that my be a little dry or instead of water to cook spniach or green beans. It add great flavor.

Use canola oil for frying. It is low in saturated fat, has a high burning point, and does not detract from the flavor of the food you are frying.
