FOOD AND COOKING TIPS

For mommy’s out there, who loves to cook for their family every night and want to simplify things, well here are some few things for you and hope you’ll find it useful.

PRESERVING SAUSAGES

Buy pork-sausage in one or two rolls. Since sausage spoils quickly, here’s what to do to give it longer shelf life. Cut the whole roll, wrap and all, into slices. Then wrap the sliced roll in foil and put it in the freezer. When you’re ready to cook sausage, take the edge of a knife and break off as many slices as needed, rewrap the roll and return to the freezer. No need to thaw the frozen slices before cooking either.

PREPARING VEGETABLE FOR COOKING

String beans, squash, carrots, tomatoes etc. should be wash before cutting or chopping them. This way, their vitamin contents are preserved. Eggplants, peeled potatoes, banana blossoms, on the other hand are better soaked in clear clean water to prevent discoloration.
