• Put a paper towel in with baked goods when freezing them. The paper absorbs the moisture and prevents freezer burns.
• Place a wooden spoon across the pot when cooking pasta and it will not boil over.
• For fluffier, whiter rice, add 1 teaspoon lemon juice per 2 pints water. To add extra flavor and nutrition to rice, cook it in liquid reserved from cooking vegetables.
• When making soup stock add 1 tablespoon white vinegar to help extract all the calcium from the bones being used. There will be no vinegar taste.
• Poke a hole in the middle of hamburgers while shaping them. The burgers will cook faster and the holes will disappear when done.
• Instead of flouring the rolling pin, chill the rolling pin in the freezer and the dough will not stick.
