Easy Clean Up for Dropped Eggs
Dropped an egg? What happens when you drop an egg on the floor? You have a slimy mess to clean up. An easy way to clean up a broken egg is to sprinkle it liberally with salt around the edges. It seems to congeal it and then it will wipe up easily without smearing all over the floor.
Buttermilk
Most people do not keep buttermilk on hand. I know this may come as a shock but a lot of people do not drink buttermilk or eat cornbread with buttermilk. What do you do if you have no buttermilk? Or you do not want to buy a carton of buttermilk for one recipe. Sour one cup of milk with 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice! It works well. I have used this for years. However, I happen to love baking with real buttermilk. The best recipes use buttermilk!
Self-Rising Flour Substitute
A recipe calls for self-rising flour and you have none? What do you do? Run to the store? No! You can make self-rising flour and continue on with your recipe.
1 cup flour
1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of salt
These are the ones I use frequently. More to come…….
