Cauliflower Tip

 Although vegetables are healthy for us some cause flatulence,  such as cauliflower, broccoli and cabbage. One tip that my grandmother taught me is, place a piece of bread ( I usually use bread that is old, about 3 -4 days old) The bread  absorbs the gas from the vegetable  thus making it lighter to your stomach. Gas is caused because these vegetables are high in sulfur, cauliflower has the least sulfur yet it still gives us flatulence.  This little tip does help.

Did you sprinkle a little too much salt in your soup ?

                                          Did you sprinkle a little too much salt in your soup?



Did you sprinkle a little too much salt in your soup ? Wait, before you throw it away and your thinking of the closest take out food.  Here's a quick remedy, peel and slice a raw potato place it in your soup, stew, sauce or whatever else you are cooking.

The potato is known to absorb water from the food, when you add salt to food it turns into water. the potato absorbs the water with the salt thus removing the saltiness and you replace it with new water.
You let the potato boil for up to half an hour and then you remove it.

I have tried this myself and it works.


                                                         

Ripe Tomatoes? Here's a lasting tip

                                                   Tomato Tip


My mother in - laws garden gave us many, many tomatoes. So what was I  to do with all these tomatoes ? I placed a few in the blender pulverized them and froze the juice  in the freezer. Now when I will be making those winter soups I will have fresh tomato juice. TIP: You can even use an ice cube tray and have small juice cubes.
