How to peel and slice an apple without a knife, how to peel a boiled egg's shell in one go, how to cut onions without making your eyes water — these are the kinds of tricks that only skilled chefs truly master.
If you readers also want to become a skilled chef for your own household, let me share some secret tips that you should definitely know.
To make yogurt cookies
Yogurt is a food that's great for health. If you shape it like cookies, kids will love it. Put the yogurt into a piping bag and squeeze it out onto a tray in cookie shapes. Then place it in the freezer for about 1 hour. You'll have delicious yogurt cookies.
If you don't want to cry while peeling and cutting onions
About 15 minutes before peeling the onion, put it in the freezer for about 15 minutes in advance.
If you want to peel boiled eggs or duck eggs in one go
While boiling the egg, you can add either a piece of lemon or about half a tablespoon of baking soda to the boiling water.
When you want to bake cakes or bread without eggs
You can use bananas. One egg has the same effect as half a banana. You can substitute it in your recipe.
For coffee lovers who want a really good cup of coffee
Before brewing coffee, add a pinch of salt and a little ground cinnamon powder. Then when you brew the coffee, its bitterness will be noticeably reduced.
If you want to peel garlic quickly
Put the garlic in the microwave for about 15 seconds first. Within that short time, you can peel it easily.
If you want to buy better-tasting bell peppers
When buying bell peppers, look at the bottom of the pepper. If it has only 3 bumps, it's a "male" pepper, and if it has 4 bumps, it's a "female" pepper. If you want to use it fresh without much spiciness, use the female pepper. If you want a bit more flavorful spiciness, you can use the male pepper.
Sewing thread that can be used instead of a knife
If you want to cut a boiled egg without a knife, or if you want to slice soft cake without a knife, gently cut it with a piece of sewing thread instead.
