Cooking Tips
Help Cooking Corn on the Cob
To cook corn on the cob that’s a day or so older than it should be, add a tablespoon of sugar, rather than salt, to the boiling water. Salt toughens corn kernels, but sugar helps restore some of the natural sweetness. Bring the water to a boil, and add the corn; after the water returns to a boil, cook 3 more minutes.
Help for Bitter-Tasting Eggplant
If eggplant tastes bitter, salt it and let it sit on a wire cooling rack for about 20 minutes to extract bitter juices. Peeling will also help reduce the bitterness.
Help for Overcooked Vegetables
Vegetables overcooked? Try turning them into a casserole. Just mix the veggies with some cooked rice or pasta, place in a casserole dish, and top with some breadcrumbs or grated cheese. Heat and serve. Another option is to puree the veggies, add cream or stock, and turn them into a soup.
Help for Limp Vegetables and Herbs
Revive carrots limp from storage by soaking them in ice water for 20 to 30 minutes.
Restore crispness to limp salad greens by placing them in ice water and refrigerating up to 1 hour. Drain well, wrap greens in paper towels, and refrigerate in plastic bags at least 4 hours.
If your fresh herbs wilt, just snip the lower stems and place the bunch in a glass of cold water. Loosely cover the leaves with a plastic bag, and chill. They will perk up in no time.
