Tips to save your time and sanity | E-Neighborhood Advisor

Have you searched the Internet for tips and tricks to save time or simplify your life? Here are a few shortcuts to use in the kitchen.

Spice Jar Labels

For spices purchased in a bag, and transferred to a spice jar at home, a quick way to label the jar is to cut the name of the spice off the bag and tape it to the outside of the jar.

Peel Garlic

Whether it’s only a clove or an entire bulb, toss it into an empty bottle. Place the lid securely on top and then shake it vigorously. You can even dance around the kitchen while you shake that jar for a few minutes. The garlic skins fall away. Dump the contents onto a clean surface, take out the fresh garlic cloves and discard the skins.

Boiling Pasta and Potatoes

Prevent a rapidly boiling pot from overflowing foam and water by laying a wooden spoon across the top. It keeps the bubbling water in the pot!
