Appliances

• Avoid long, uninterrupted use of your blender. Such misuse can
  overheat the motor and possibly cause a breakdown.
  
  
• Keep the mixing bowl from slipping on the countertop when
  using a handheld mixer by putting a rubberised mat or a damp
  cloth underneath it.
  
  
• Place a piece of plastic wrap over the top of your processor's
  bowl before you put on the lid. After processing, you'll discover
  that the usually splatter-splashed lid is spotless.
  
  
• Dispel offensive odours from your microwave by placing a thick
  slice of lemon on a paper towel and microwaving it on high for
  about a minute and a half.

Cooking Tips

• To avoid browning of apples after cutting, apply a little lemon
  juice on the cut surface. The apples will stay and look fresh for
  a longer time.
  
  
• While boiling milk, always add a little water in the vessel to
  avoid milk from sticking to the bottom.
  
  
• You can also leave a spoon in the vessel in which the milk is
  being boiled at low heat so that it does not get burnt at the
  bottom.
  
  
• Keep coriander leaves in a muslin cloth bag, in the refrigerator.
  They will remain fresh for a longer time.
  
  
• Add a tablespoon of hot oil to homemade pastes of garlic,
  ginger or green chilli, along with salt to make it last longer and
  taste fresher.
  
  
• Remove the stems of green chillies while storing them.This will
  help them stay fresh for long.
  
  
• Store raisins in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They
  will stay fresh for much longer.
  
  
• While using ginger and garlic paste in curries, always use garlic
  at 60% ratio and ginger at 40% as ginger is very strong and
  will make your dish sharp and pungent.
