Here are some helpful cooking tips
that you might find useful.
• Do not discard over-ripe bananas. Slice and sprinkle it
with lemon juice. Freeze it to use later for milk shakes ,
puddings or banana bread. It will blacken if you refrigerate
it.
• If you only need a few drops of lemon juice, puncture a
lemon with a toothpick and squeeze out the amount needed.
Replace the toothpick. If the lemon is cut, it won't last
as long.
• Fresh ginger will stay fresh for months in a freezer if
you wrap it tightly in foil.
• To separate the leaves of a round lettuce, hit the core
end sharply against the kitchen counter top. The core can
be pulled out and the leaves will separate without tearing
into strips.
Here is a tasty fish recipe which you can try:
