Today we will tell you how to do it and tell you a few more tricks that chefs in restaurants around the world use!
Ingredients:
Oil
Garlic
Salt
Add-ons
Preparation:
Preparing the base is easy. Take a few cloves of garlic. The main thing is to get a puree. Mix it with a little salt and add it to the butter. Combine the ingredients into one mass. It's ready!
About add-ons. Chopped dill mixed with garlic butter is great for meat. Parsley would go with fish.
And if you use basil, any Italian dish will taste a hundred times better. Butter (it is animal fat) completely absorbs the taste and aroma of the ingredient and can be frozen for later. It will not deteriorate and will always be on hand.
More cooking tricks:
Lemon salt. Another spice that goes well with fish and seafood. Add lemon juice and chopped lemon zest to regular salt. Spread it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and put it in the oven with the door open at low heat. When the salt is completely dry, pour it into a nice container. The taste and aroma are guaranteed.
Quick egg peeling. Put 5-6 boiled eggs in a small plastic container. Fill it halfway with water.
Close and shake well. Shake about thirty times, then you can open them. You will see that all the eggs have already started to "shed" the shells. It remains only to pick them up. This will work without problems.
Protection against chili peppers. To avoid bothering with gloves and looking for them all over the kitchen, just use vegetable oil. Grease your hands with it, don't forget about the bases of your nails. You can cut chili peppers without worrying about the skin on your hands and eyes.
After the whole procedure, just rinse your hands.
Flexible food wrap. If you put it in the fridge and then use it for its intended purpose, you can save a lot of time and nerves. It's easier to work with. It doesn't pull as much and unrolls perfectly. Finally, you can put it back on the shelf, and it will stretch like before.
Ripe avocado. Avocado comes to our supermarkets rather unripe. It's because they pick it until it's still green, so it appears right after it's shipped, but not always.
Dip the avocado in a bowl of flour and close it. The flour in the bowl will help the avocado ripen in an instant.
Removing excess fat. If you find your soup too oily, and you don't want it to be, add an ice cube to the boiling pot. Then all the fat will float to the surface, and you can quickly scoop up all the excess fat with a spoon.
Chinese restaurants use ice bowls. They dip them into the soup and then immediately scrape off the fat that has stuck to them. But they use very different amounts of food.
Getting rid of the smell on your hands? This method has its place too. If you clean a lot of fish, even local cats will bend their noses over your hands. So sprinkle them with baking soda and lemon juice, rub them, and rinse with warm water. And not every expensive soap can do that.
