Toss an entire bunch of leftover herbs with olive oil and roast them on a sheet pan for a crispy garnish

mirasingh I have so much sage growing in my little window box farm. I'll definitely try this!

Gwendolyn Works great with sage leaves @mirasingh ! Put some sea salt on there too... Yum!
Is that milk past its 'sell by' date? Drink it anyway.

This is probably one of my biggest pet peeves in the industry and I hope on Food Recovery Lobby Day on Apr 4, 2016 we address this issue.

DietID_TeamDietitians i think people just need to learn how to smell milk - e.g. get to know their food a bit more.
-
annefood Yes this is so ridiculous. @unconventionalbaker @JenniferEmilson and I were talking about this last week, and I suggested that there either needs to be a federal regulation as this article...

JenniferEmilson Sell by dates and Best by dates are purely for the retailer's benefit. Common sense needs to be taught as well. I was intrigued by this conversation last week. And like @rachna said, Use your nose....

How to eat an Avocado seed
facebook.com
"I had no idea!"
Sauté chopped anchovies in the pan before starting a tomato sauce. They and saltiness and omega-3s.
And when the sauce is done you won't even know they're there! #kitchentips #tipoftheday
-
Riki Wow, what a strange but interesting idea !
Keeping in mind that my husband hates anchovies, or at least, believes he does
If in fact the anchovy flavor won t be apparent , May be it's worth a try 😅
Cook quinoa in broth for a richer, creamier dish.
Broth adds so much more flavor to grains than water does! I served fresh red snapper, green salad and tangy Meyer lemon salsa with the rich quinoa, and it balanced the dish perfectly. #kitchentips
-
JenniferEmilson Unless it's for breakfast I try to cook all grains in broth. My mom taught me that one!! You're right, it ups the depth and creaminess of grains, whether rice, quinoa, buckwheat, millet, etc
-
annefood I've never cooked buckwheat @JenniferEmilson, only the flour! I should try that.
-
gingerandchorizo I agree with @JenniferEmilson! And I am just posting a new salad recipe here with roasted buckwheat which is also cooked in veggie broth :)
Kale is rich in calcium! You don't have to drink milk, just eat your leafy greens!
For delicious kale chips, just toss chopped kale with olive oil, sea salt and pepper, and roast at 350 for about 10 minutes, checking often. #kitchentips
Avocado kept fresh
I recently found an easy way to store half / part of an avocado from turning brown .
Simply cover it in plastic wrap ( in a nicely sealed air tight manner ) and place in the fridge.

DietID_TeamDietitians Yes! Also storing it with the pit and in lemon juice also works! #kitchentips
-
Yfalkson Pretty sure I heard the pit part is actually a myth. I think Kenji Lopez from The Foodlab tested it
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Really?! Oof I'll give it a try sans the lemon juice. I always use both and it seems to work, but a true scientist would say only test one variable at a time :)
Learning how to poach eggs! Anyone have tips?
Made a speedy breakfast with @akhilg2002 of mushrooms topped with poached eggs and homegrown basil (yes the basil is still alive!). Not perfect, but these eggs turned out better than before. I trie...
-
JenniferEmilson Yes- while you are waiting for your water to boil, and then drop to a moderate summer, crack your egg onto a small sieve (like you light use for tea) set over a cup. Let it drain all the loose bits...
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Oh wow I was stirring like crazy! I'll try this next time. Thanks!
-
marynfulton2 Add a little vinegar to your water! It helps the egg stay together as well 😊
