Even More Cooking Tips

To make simple deviled eggs put your egg yolks, mayo, mustard, salt, pepper, pickles, etc. into a zip lock type plastic bag. Mush it altogether inside, snip the corner of the bag and fill your egg white halves by mashing the filling through the hole cut into the bag.

Did you know that cream that is whipped ahead of time, will not separate if you add a touch of dissolved unflavored gelatin (1/4 tsp. per cup of cream).   

If you store your sour cream and cottage cheese upside down in your refrigerator it keeps longer. 

For a new taste in potato salad dressing, use onion soup mix instead of fresh onions or chives.  Two Tablespoons are enough to season a family-sized salad.  It's easy and saves the tears and fuss of chopping onions.
