IDEAS FOR “NOT SO ORDINARY” CHICKEN SCHNITZEL
Wikkie Tap: Maizena and Tuc biscuits or Cream crackers instead of crumbs. Break biscuits into crumbs and mix with maizena, dip in egg then crumb mixture and fry.
Heather Botes: I have used a mixture of mayonnaise and mustard instead of egg. The breadcrumbs stick to this even better than egg and the chicken has an extra bit of flavour. You can try Mayo and curry powder too for something different.
HOW TO KEEP A CUT APPLE FROM TURNING BROWN
When you cut open an apple, an enzyme (tyrosinase) in the flesh reacts with oxygen to turn polyphenols into melanin (the same pigment that makes you tan). Here’s how to halt the process so your apples stay bright and white.
Choose apples that are less prone to being sour. A study found that Arangeh tend to brown the least. Granny Smith and Golden Smoty apples also showed minimal browning. Golden Delicious apples were in the middle, and Red Delicious apples browned the most.
[1] Cut the apple underwater. This keeps the enzyme from making contact with oxygen. Keep the cut apple in the water until ready to serve. Continue reading
AS ROOMKAAS VERSIERSEL NIE WIL STYF WORD NIE
Ek gebruik nooit die laevet roomkaas nie en gebruik botter.
Die laevet goed is reg vir toebroodjie maar as dit by bak kom gebruik volvet produkte.
Maak n bietjie gelatien aan en gooi dit by. Dit werk.
Maak net seker dis heeltemal afgekoel voor jy dit inmeng
Wenk: Hettie Bezuidenhout
Soos Hettie se, gebruik BOTTER, nie margarien, en glad nie laevet roomkaas nie, ook net die blokkie (Philadelphia as jy kan). Klits botter en versiersuiker tot baie glad (en klits dan nog). As jy heeltemal happy is, klits dan jou (room temp) kaas by tot net gemeng. Ek glo aan red ‘n resep wat flop as jy kan, maar die is een van daai wat jy nie kan nie.

Ek gooi altyd n bietjie suurlemoenjelliepoeier by as my maaskaasversiersel nie wil stol nie. ……Skuimpies het ek geleer wil uitdroog, nie bak nie. Ek voer bakplaat ook uit met foelie. Dowwe kant na bo.
OM EIERWITTE STYF TE KLOP
Vries die eierwitte haal uit ontdooi halfpad en klits styf.

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO BOIL AN EGG
Article: Anna Stockwell
Two of our food editors face off on whether it’s better to boil eggs starting in hot water or cold water.
Almost every cook has their own version of how to get the perfect boiled egg. Honestly, if you have a method that works for you, that you know you can rely on to get consistent results every time, feel free to stick with it. Reliability is the most important factor of an egg boiling technique.
But to solve the disagreement between Kat and myself, I did a series of side-by-side tests of cold start vs. hot start for soft, medium, and hard boiled eggs. Continue reading
THERMO FAN OVEN
Thermo fan baking is done with the oven trays in position on top of the wire shelves. Unused trays must be kept in position to facilitate proper airflow.
• For small items the entire area of each tray may be utilised. Larger items should be placed towards the front of each tray.
• All ovens extract a certain amount of moisture from the food being cooked. The much greater capacity of the Thermofan oven allows more food to be cooked and thus more moisture may be released. This is normal and not detrimental to the food or the oven.
• For professional results and perfect browning, open the oven door when half the baking time has Continue reading

KEER GESNYDE APPEL OM BRUIN TE WORD
Janieta Nell Sny die appel in skyfies, en “bind dan weer vas” met ‘n rekkie om. Die appel verkleur nie.
Rina Kleinhans Spoel die appel af onder die water nadat dit gesny is en bind dit weer vas soos Janieta Nell se of sit in ‘n lugdigte sakkie ek vat die zip lock sakkies en druk dan al die lug uit. Dit is die metaal van die mes wat die appel verkleur en dit help om dit af te spoel is my ondervinding.
Michelle Joubert So paar druppels suurlemoensap in die sakkie! Skud, en viola!! Kan lekker in die kosblik gebere word sonder om bruin te word
Carlien Grobler Dip die gesnyde appel in Mountain Dew koeldrank vir paar sekondes….
HOE OM SLEGTE REUK UIT JOU OOND TE KRY
Jo-Anne Smit:
Suurlemoen sap, halwe uie en vanilje gesel het my vrieskas gered. Wel seker net 1 ek het ales daar in gegooi
Rita Killian:

Lisinda Blaauw:
Mix into a paste Bicarbonate of soda and some water. Apply paste to the inside of your oven and leave over night. Spray some vinegar on the next day and remove from oven with a damp cloth. The bicarb neutralizes the smell and with the vinegar makes and excellent oven cleaner Continue reading
HOE OM AVOKADO’s RYP TE KRY
Aankoop, berging en rypmaak van avokadopere:
Kies avokadopere met dowwe skille. Peervormige avokadopere moet baie vleis rondom die nekgedeelte hê en swaar in massa wees vir hul grootte wanneer jy dit in jou hand weeg.
Moenie aan avokadopere druk om te voel of hulle ryp is nie – koop liewer gereed- om- te- eet avokado’s of plaas die avokado in jou handpalm en rol dit effens heen en weer. Druk liggies met die palm van jou hand teen die avokado, dit behoort effens mee te gee (afhangende van die soort avokado).
Die avokado moet nie sag of pap voel nie. Om die rypmaak van avokado’s te bespoedig kan dit saam met ‘n ryp appel of piesang in koerant- of handoekpapier toegedraai word en in ‘n donker kas gesit word. Die vrugte stel etileengas vry wat die rypword van die vrug bespoedig. Continue reading
