Food and cooking tips

Kitchen Tip : Use a covered kettle or pan to boil water; it's faster and it uses less energy.


Buy Local Food : As an ‘everything in moderation’ kind of guy, I’d find a strict local food diet fascinating but obsessive and intimidating, says Peter Marks, program coordinator for the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project in Asheville, N.C. He suggests a more gradual approach: Every week or month, replace one food in your diet that’s provided by a big, faraway company with a locally grown food.


Oven Tips : Stagger pans and baking sheets on upper and lower racks to improve airflow, and don't cover racks with foil. Food cooks more quickly and efficiently when heat circulates freely.


Cook safely

Consider having a fire blanket in your kitchen, mounted on the wall where you can get to it instantly.
Test the temperature of deep fat fryer oil with a small piece of bread or potato. If it crisps quickly, the oil is hot enough.

Ingredients And Procedures

1 cn Stewed tomatoes.

1/2 lb Hot dogs sliced 1/2"

Thick 3/4 c Green pepper, diced

3/4 c Onion, diced

Rice for 4 people Contributed to the echo by: Marge Clark The recipe has no real measurments...is a "what you have"... Spanish hot dogs & rice: Enough rice for four people... put rice on to cook...while it's cooking slice as many hot dogs as you have (lets say 1/2 pound or more) into pennies, about 1/2 inch thick. dice 1 green pepper...I used to use the frozen diced pepper and use a couple of handsful..maybe 3/4 cup? Diced onion. ditto on the amount. combine all the above, heat, while the rice is cooking...set the table and spray on some perfume. This is obviously not a gourmet feast for company. But everyone ATE it! and there is little that's faster or easier!
