There are some things that we do not use every day correctly, without even knowing it.

Serrated knives

Everyone thinks serrated knives are made for soft bread. But these knives need to cut not only tomatoes, but also other vegetables and fruits with a hard skin and tender pulp.

Dishwasher

You know that plates with leftover carbohydrate food (potatoes, rice, pasta) are best placed in the center dishwasher, but with protein contamination (from meat, cheeses, etc.) around the edges. So they wash better.

Food processor

Do you know the difference between a food processor and a blender? Combines are better at handling solid and dry products.

Blender

Blender suitable for making soups, sauces and cocktails. Do you know in what order to add the ingredients.

The correct procedure is:

  • Liquids (milk, kefir, broth, etc.);
  • additional small ingredients (berries, nuts, spices, etc.);
  • large pieces of fruit, vegetables, etc.
  • ice or tough stems.

Fridge

Refrigerator doors are great for a variety of sauces, juices and other foods that do not require cold storage. And it is better to store milk and eggs where it is colder. And do not load the refrigerator to capacity, this makes it worse at its job.
