There are many people who view cooking as a chore, rather than a fun and exciting
experience. But for many, cooking is an enjoyable hobby, something to look forward to. It's
also a good step toward a more healthy lifestyle. A good cook will always continue to learn
new and innovative methods, and the following information will help you learn more about
cooking as well.
Fresh fruits, including bananas, apples and peaches will quickly turn brown if left exposed to
the air after being cut open. While you can use lemon juice or salted water to prevent
browning, they don't add appealing flavor. Instead, dip each piece in pineapple juice. A small
amount of juice is all that you need to keep your fruit looking fresh.
It's very frustrating to try to cook a tasty hamburger and see it deformed or ruined, because it
gets stuck to your grill. Try brushing vegetable oil on the cooking surface prior to cooking so
that food does not stick.
Use leftovers for a delicious fried rice, soup or a hearty stew. Day old rice tastes best in stir
fried rice because of its drier taste, but fresh rice will also work. Just add slightly less water
than normal. Fry both the meat and vegetables with some oil, then put in the rice. Finish
things up by choosing a seasoning, including spices like ginger and garlic, and ordinary
condiments like soy sauce.
Make sure you rinse onions that have been diced and blot them when you are preparing
salsa that will not be used in 20 minutes. Onions have plenty of sulfurous gas. The taste of
fresh salsa can be negatively impacted by this gas. By rinsing and drying your raw onions,
the gas is released.
This seasoning can be used with various foods other than meat. Experiment with adding it to
roasted seeds such as sunflower or pumpkin, or even sprinkle into salads and egg dishes. All
your guests will be left wondering where the delightful flavor came from.
Don't add the dressing until right before serving. You'll be glad you have your prep work done
when it's time to cook. Setting a time limit can add stress to your cooking experience. You
can help lessen the potential stress by getting all your prep work done early.
Prepare some of your food the night before to save time and headaches. Try chopping all
your onions and veggies, making up a sauce or putting the meat in a marinade before going
to bed at night. You will feel less stressed and a bit more eager to cook when you wake up.
To measure sticky food easier, you should use some cooking oil. Give measuring spoons a
light coat of an oil without much flavor (e.g. canola oil) before measuring. Sticky foods and
ingredients will come off the spoon like a charm, making clean up easier and waste less
likely. This is a handy trick for getting just the right amount of everything from peanut butter to
jelly.
In order to ensure your meats are being cooked properly, you should make use of a meat
thermometer. All of the different meats require a certain internal temperature in order for it to
be safe to eat. All types of bacteria live on meat. Therefore, if the bacteria is not properly
cooked, it can stay on the meat, and cause you to get sick.
There are few things more enjoyable in life than sitting down to partake in a well cooked
meal. It does not take a long time to learn to cook amazing meals. Anyone with a desire to
cook can learn the basics and then improve on them. After reading this article, you now have
the skills that are necessary to become a master in the kitchen.
