House Hold Hints

If you want to melt chocolate, grease the pan in which you are going to melt it.

Before you peel an onion, pour boiling water over it and let it stand for 3 minutes. Then place it in cold water for about a minute. Now you can prepare it without crying.

Heat a lemon or a lime before you squeeze it. You'll get more juice out of it. Stick it in the microwave for a few seconds

Substitutions

1 tablespoon cornstarch = 2 tablespoons four
3 tablespoons cocoa plus 1 tablespoon butter or margarine = 1 square baking chocolate
