A pie crust should be baked a little bit longer than you would think. They need to be a golden caramel color rather than pale blonde. The crust changes to the caramel color only after the sugar has had time to caramelize. This will give the crust the sweet flavor you want.

When adding seasoning to meats, try some before cooking the whole thing. Certain meats, such as meatballs, hamburgers, and meatloaf, need to be carefully seasoned in order for them to taste great. Do not cook the entire thing right after you season it. Just cook a small piece formed into a patty. Once you’ve tasted the meat, change the seasoning accordingly, then cook the entire piece of meat.

TIP! Raw potatoes should rest in chilly water for approximately 30 minutes. This will help them to be crispy and delicious.

In the fall, apples are often used for cooking, but if the fruit is incorrectly stored, it will spoil very quickly. Apples tend to rot in warm dry air, so tie them up loosely in plastic bags and store in a refrigerator or cool basement. Make sure to inspect your apples regularly, as one rotten apple means that the others are soon to follow.

If you are left with extra sauce after a meal, find a clean ice cube tray to pour the leftovers into and store the tray in the freezer. This makes it easy to prepare a quick meal by reheating the sauce using a saute pan. Don’t worry, your sauce will taste great even after having been frozen.

TIP! There are few things more frustrating in grilling than going to flip a burger and finding that it has stuck to the grill. The way to prevent this is to coat the grill with some vegetable oil prior to putting any food on the grill.

Use airtight containers for flour, sugar and baking mixes in the kitchen. Keeping food fresh and bug-free is simple with these containers. These containers can be purchased at almost any store and definitely make for a good investment.

Try to add some broths or other ingredients to recipes that call for liquid in place of what it asks for. In place of water, try adding beef or chicken broth, juice or even water used to cook vegetables. Sour cream, buttermilk and yogurt make good milk substitutes. Changing liquids can improve the nutrition of the dish and make it more lively.

TIP! If you use skewers for any of your dishes, be sure to soak skewers made of wood in water for a minimum of a half hour before using them. This way, you don’t burn them when you are cooking with them.

Make your stressful family or holiday dinner more relaxing by completing most of the prep work up to 24 hours in advance. You can marinate the meat, make a sauce and cut up some vegetables and onions before going to bed. This will take a great deal of stress off of your shoulders when it is time to cook.

Find a convenient cool dark place for storing herbs and spices. When you store your herbs out on the kitchen counter, they will lose their flavor quickly and become stale.

Food is a building block of life, and has profound effects on the body. Utilize these tips to improve the quality of your food.
