Kitchen Hacks Part VII

Hello~! It's been a while since my last hacks post, so here it is! Hope these tips will help you out when you venture into the kitchen ^_^

1.     To prevent your eggs from rolling all over the counter, either use a recycled egg carton container (in which you can place the egg shells afterwards) or rest the egg in a thick large rubber band.

2.     If you want to create round, not-broken poached eggs, crack the egg into a small dish and pour the egg slowly and gently into the pot of simmering water.

3.     To easily remove pinbones from a fish, drape the fish, flesh-side up, over an inverted size-appropriate mixing bowl. This causes the bones to stick up and out so they’re easier to see and remove.

4.     Prevent your fish from sticking to your grill by placing a few thin slices of a citrus fruit on the cooking grate and resting the fish on top.

5.     If you’d like to hasten the ripening of hard fruits, place the unripe fruit in a brown paper bag with ripe fruit, such as bananas, and let it sit for a day.
