How accurate is your oven temperature?
unconventionalbaker.com
Did you know that temperatures in many ovens can fluctuate wildly? If you're not baking a fancy treat, it may not matter much. But in baking desserts, breads, etc., it can sometimes be a deal break...

DietID_TeamDietitians Such a good tip. I don't think my ovens have ever been right :( any tips on placement within the oven? I find that things bake wildly different on different shelves

mirasingh Maybe this is why my baking is always a crapshoot!

Ricotta Pancakes & Strawberries
Fluffy ricotta pancakes with fresh strawberries and berry-vanilla sauce.. I'm taking advantage of all the strawberries coming in from Florida, but I so look forward to the locally grown ones from t...
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Soooo yummy! Yes when local strawberries come to the market, I like to buy a bunch and freeze them for dreary winter days that just need some sweetness :) #kitchentips
-
reneedenise @Rachana I like that idea! :) I'd need to figure out how to keep the freezer scent out of my food if it's stored for more than a short time.
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Ahh good point! I've double-bagged before. Not sure that works super well because those berries don't last very long- I have very little willpower 😍
Spaghetti Squash!
-
DietID_TeamDietitians I love spaghetti squash! Using as a pasta replacement is so easy, and you can't taste the difference #kitchentips
-
lauren Did you roast it? I've only boiled spaghetti squash (mostly because of a non-working oven, but that's been fixed)
-
brittanymbarton my go-to pasta replacer! so easy to roast in the oven at 350 for about 45 mins @lauren
Is dashi the "new" stock?

Who is a dashi fan? I've never made it, but imagine it would indeed be a great stand-in for veggie stock. I always used the box kind (except for Thanksgiving when I make my own) and don't mind it a...

sugardetoxme Divine and sounds like a #nofoodwaste recipe!

Shuchi Thanks @sugardetoxme ! It sure is, as with most of what I cook and eat. Nothing irks me more than unnecessary food waste!
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Such a great #kitchentip. My favorite curry recipe for salads like this is a tomato and onion base with bay leaves and chili. It's a great way to use super mushy tomatoes, and the gravy can be...

Did you know the fronds are edible?!

mirasingh Fronds? Are those the leaves?

Is that milk past its 'sell by' date? Drink it anyway.
latimes.com
This is probably one of my biggest pet peeves in the industry and I hope on Food Recovery Lobby Day on Apr 4, 2016 we address this issue.

DietID_TeamDietitians i think people just need to learn how to smell milk - e.g. get to know their food a bit more.

annefood Yes this is so ridiculous. @unconventionalbaker @JenniferEmilson and I were talking about this last week, and I suggested that there either needs to be a federal regulation as this article...

JenniferEmilson Sell by dates and Best by dates are purely for the retailer's benefit. Common sense needs to be taught as well. I was intrigued by this conversation last week. And like @rachna said, Use your nose....
