TIPS TIPS TIPS..............

** Keep boiled eggs in cold water for 5 minutes, this will make removal of the shell easier!

** While cooking smelly foods, soak a cloth towel and let it dry in the cooking area. It will absorb the smell of cooking and keep the room fresh!

** When the noodles are boiled, drain all the hot water and add cold water. This way all the noodles will get separated!

** Add a pinch of sugar while cooking spinach and green leafy vegetables, it will retain its green colour!

** Never store an apple near a banana unless you want to ripen the banana in a short period of time!

** Sprinkle a bit of salt in the frying pan before adding chicken. It will cut down on the amountof grease splattering!

** To remove the coffee stain in the cup, fill it with any kind of soda for 3 hours!

** If you drop an egg on the floor, cover it with salt and leave it for a couple of minutes. Cleaning the mess will be easy with a paper towel!

** If you keep a piece of blotting paper at the bottom of the container, it will keep biscuits fresh for a longer time!

** To keep celery fresh for a long time, wrap it in aluminium foil and place in the refrigerator!

** To keep the chilies fresh for a longer time, remove the stems before storing!
