We are Raring2go! to help make the new year a little easier for us all, and have been gathering hints and tips to share. Why not send us in yours? In the kitchen: • Push a metal skewer through jacket potatoes before popping them in the oven - it helps them cook faster. • A clippy coat hanger hooked over a cupboard door handle makes a handy cookbook holder. • Frozen mashed bananas make a great alternative to ice cream. • Pizza cutters are perfect for chopping herbs. • Left over fresh herbs can be frozen! Chop them up, then pop them into ice cube trays, pour over olive oil and freeze - just add a frozen cube to your next dish while it cooks. • Left over ginger root can be frozen too! • Apple slicers make perfect potato wedges. • Placing a damp tea towel under your mixing bowl will keep it from sliding around while you mix. • Rubber bands are a must have in the kitchen. Not only can you use them to seal open packets, but simply wrap them around that hard to open lid and hey presto - twist and it’s off! • Hate cleaning the cheese grater? Spray a little cooking spray on it before you use it, to stop the cheese sticking. • Keep a go-bag inside your empty coolbox. Fill it with games, bug hunt sheets, pencils, sun screen, picnic plates and paper towels - just grab it when you fill the cool box. Ready to go! • Cupcake liners make great finger food holders / separators for lunch boxes. • Lemon water is perfect for cleaning your microwave. Add a couple of slices of lemon (or some lemon juice) to water in a microwaveable bowl and heat it uncovered for a few minutes in the microwave. Keep the door closed once the water has boiled and let the steam loosen any stuck on food for a few minutes before scrubbing - it smells great too! There are LOADS more cleaning hacks using lemons and baking soda on the internet! Well, so are tens of thousands of local Mums and Dads every quarter… be sure to feature your business with Raring2go!
