Handy Kitchen Manual

This section called Food-O-Facts is dedicated entirely to handy kitchen tips and useful facts. Ever had the problem of missing ingredients.? Or maybe you added too much of something to a dish. Well this is the section you should look into.
                    
                                   Here are two really handy tips to make your life easier in the kitchen.

TIP #1:  Garlic Peel-A-Thon

Those pesky garlic pods are not budging from out of their skins.?  Have tiny mountains of garlic cloves waiting to be peeled and you are struggling to peel one with garlic juice smeared all over you.? Well heat those pesky pods for 10 secs in the microwave and you'll have them out of their skins faster than clothes off Sunny Leone. Another method is to soak them in warm water for 10 minutes. But this method can make the garlic lose some of its essence and flavour so tread with care.


TIP #2: Salty Affair

 
You forgot your glasses in your room and misread the recipe and added a tablespoon of salt instead of a teaspoon.? That forever loose top of your salt shaker decides that its time to take a swan dive into your cooking along with a generous dollop of salt? With hardly an hour left to your dinner party you are still walking around in sweatpants, result being you added salt an extra time.? Well the solution to your problem is here. Excess salt can be combatted by adding a teaspoon of sugar(Read TEAspoon not TABLEspoon), some diced potatoes or some diced tomatoes. This sucks the salty disaster right out.
