TIP! When you are cooking food on skewers, there are some basic guidelines to know. When using metal skewers, opt for those that are square-shaped or twisted; these will hold onto food better than round models can.

For even cooking, let the strips of meat thaw completely before you start to cook.

If you do any lengthy cooking process like boiling, many of the nutrients will be cooked out. You can keep all those healthy nutrients by using a quick method of cooking like steaming or by eating the vegetables raw.

Fresh Garlic

TIP! Regardless of what you cook, it is always better to use fresh ingredients as opposed to those that are dried or frozen. Use any fresh ingredients that are available.

Buy your garlic as fresh as possible for any dish that needs the flavorful ingredient. Fresh garlic has a sweeter taste. Fresh garlic will have firm skin and cloves. In addition, it should not be shriveled or have any bruises.

Do not use any kind of wine in your cooking that you haven’t tasted on your own. Using a type of wine you find unpalatable will negatively impact the flavor of your food. Several wines suitable for cooking purposes are readily available in the market.

TIP! Mushrooms absorb large amounts of water, and this excess water will go into whatever you are cooking with. A better option is to use a clean, damp cloth to hand-wipe each mushroom.

Tomatoes can be easily dried. Just slice them when ripe to about 1/2″ thickness. Then put them on a rack that you might use to cool cookies and then lightly cover them with salt. Place the cooling rack on a cookie sheet and dry in a 190 degree oven for up to 10 hours. The dried tomatoes can be put in plastic bags and frozen. Another option is to place the tomatoes in a jar and cover them with fresh herbs and olive oil. The jar can be stored in your refrigerator for up to two weeks.
