More Tips



measuring spoons

Why wash several measuring spoons when you didn't use them all. Or hassle with holding on to the remaining spoons while you measure from just one?

Take your measuring spoons apart -- when possible -- and store them individually. It works well to designate a storage compartment just for the spoons in a drawer.

And while you're at it, buy an extra set of measuring spoons to help avoid having to wash spoons between uses. Many cooks say having an extra set (or two) of measuring spoons makes cooking go faster and smoother for them.
