Modern housewives often forget simple culinary truths and tricks that were actively used by the older generation. So, below is a list of 11 of the most "forgotten" culinary tips.
1. Fresh apples are well preserved if covered with clean sawdust
2. Eggs with cracked shells usually run out during cooking. To preserve such an egg, it must be boiled in salt water.
3. Serving lemon for tea, it is necessary to pour boiling water over it. This brings out the aroma more strongly.
4. Sour cream sometimes does not go well. In this case, you should add protein to it, cool the dishes (in which churning will occur) in cold water, and then churn.
5. To preserve all the nutrients, stir only with a wooden spoon during cooking.
6. Grease will be spattered less by adding a handful of salt to the pan before frying.
7. Potatoes peel much faster if they are poured over with cold water immediately after boiling.
8. It is better to add vinegar, citric acid, tomato paste exclusively at the end of cooking, and not vice versa.
9. Fish will not smell like mud if washed in strong cold salt solution.
10. Beets and green peas, unlike all other vegetables, are not boiled in salt water. Green peas do not boil in salted water for a long time, and beets become less tasty.
11. The salty taste of the broth can be corrected with a simple pinch of sugar, rather than adding extra water.
