Keep shredded cheese that you plan to melt in the freezer. It will taste the same and mold can’t grow on it!
If your brown sugar has hardened, cut a piece of apple and place it in the container overnight. In the morning, your sugar will be softened!
If you cut brownies with a pizza cutter instead of a knife they will look neater. People will think you just picked them up from the bakery.
When boiling vegetables, add a small amount of milk to your cooking water to keep the colors of your vegetables from fading.
When you making meatballs, shape the meat mixture into a log and cut off slices. The slices will roll easily into a ball.
If you want to cook sweet potatoes fast, place them in the microwave 4 at a time for 8-10 minutes. Poke holes in the potatoes before putting them in the microwave so steam can escape; then finish cooking them in a 400 F oven until tender.
When you making a pie crust substitute any water in the recipe for sour cream and you will get a flaky crust.
After peeling and pitting peaches, lay them on a cutting board and slice them with an egg slicer. You’ll get more even slices with less mess.
Store a small white candle in your recipe box. After writing out a new recipe, lightly rub the card with the candle to give it a clear wax coating. Cooking spills will bead up and wipe right off.
Sauerkraut has a strong smell so before heating the kraut, add some red wine or red wine vinegar, and the odor will disappear.

If you go to a restaurant choose an appetizer and a side salad instead of an entree. This is cheaper and healthier and you can have a desert too.
