TOP 5 Cooking tips and tricks of the day 6

To get the maximum juice out of a lemon or a lime, roll it hard on the kitchen counter using your palm. This releases more of the juice.

 

Before frying a fillet of fish, let it rest on a kitchen towel for a few minutes on each side. The excess water will get absorbed and this will enhance the flavour of panfried or sautéed fish.

 

It better to wipe or brush mushrooms clean of any dirt. They absorb water easily, and washing them under a running tap or leaving them soaked will make them taste watery.

When making a tomato based pasta sauce, add a little grated or ground carrot. It adds a small element of sweetness and reduced the acidic, sourness of tomatoes.

Avoid using tamarind, lime or other souring agents in green leafy preparations. Acid reduces the nutritional properties of greens.

TOP 5 COOKING TIP AND TRICKS OF THE DAY 5

To prevent rice grains from sticking one has to remove starch. To do this wash the rice several times till water runs clear, then let it soak for 20 mins in clean water.

 

When making ginger-garlic paste at home, add a pinch of salt and a teaspoon of vinegar to the mix. It won't change the taste much and will allow you to store it in the refrigerator about about two weeks.

Rubbing your hands on a stainless steel sink or container removes the pungent smell of garlic, onions or other spices from them.

 

When baking, always use room temperature butter and eggs. Using these straight from the refrigerator will make it harder to blend and mix, affecting the final product.

 

Cutting bacon or pancetta is easier after they have been sitting in the freezer for a little while and have become firm.
