Many of these hacks I learnt from my mother and grandmother or just figuring it out myself, a few of them were just happened upon by chance and every now and then I see one on social media that surprises me still. So, here are some of my favourites
Retrieving egg shell We’ve all dropped bits of egg shell in our eggs when we cracked them and they can be a pain to retrieve. I noticed years ago that if you use the rest of the shell to scoop out the broken off piece it acts like a magnet Fresh test – eggs Pop your egg into a glass jug of water. If it lies flat on the bottom it’s fresh: 1-3 days old. It will gradually tip upwards the older it gets and if it floats to the top it’s time to bin that egg Quick peel – garlic Place the garlic cloves under a saucepan and push down till the garlic smashes Place all cloves in Tupperware and put the lid on. Then Shake it up. All the skins will separate from the body of the garlic Saving fresh herbs I love the smell of fresh herbs in the kitchen but sometimes you just have too much. Rather than waste any simply chop them up and place them in an ice tray and add olive oil then freeze. Take out a cube at a time. Buttermilk alternative I don’t know how many times a recipe needed buttermilk and I didn’t have any. Simply add a Tbsp of apple cider vinegar/vinegar to each cup of milk and leave sit for 10 minutes You can follow carina at: www.itsanaturalchoice.com www.breaking-fads.com Rest & Reset webinars - follow us on facebook Follow her journey on Facebook & Instagram: @itsanaturalchoice @welovebreakingfads Rest & Reset
