Favorite Food Hints - From Herbs to Club Soda

By Hklbrries

Dear Readers: Here are some favorite food hints from Heloise Central:

Store herbs on a revolving shelf and alphabetize them so they are easy to locate. Don’t store spices above the stove or dishwasher. The heat and steam can cause them to deteriorate quickly.

Save large shaker containers (like Parmesan cheese) to put sugar, flour or powdered sugar in.

Want a healthy snack? Toast a piece of whole-wheat bread, spread just a little peanut butter on, and grate some Granny Smith or other tart apple over the top.

Add a slice of bread to a package or container of cookies to keep them from getting hard or to help soften them up.

Can’t remember if you salted the water for pasta? Add a few grains of black pepper (just enough to see) when you salt the water.

Substitute club soda for water when making a German chocolate cake. The cake will end up moist and delicious!
