Sauces, Curdling
When a sauce curdles, follow this procedure:
Remove pan from heat and plunge into a pan of cold water to stop the cooking
process. Beat sauce vigorously or pour into a blender and process until the
sauce is smooth.
Soup, Thickening
You can thicken a soup without using flour and butter or eggs — just purée a
portion of the soup and stir it back into the pot.
Sticky Fingers
When working with dough, don't flour your hands. It's true the flour will keep
the dough from sticking to your fingers, however, it can also add too much flour
to the mixture causing overdry dough. Instead, oil your hands with olive oil.
Not only will the dough keep from sticking, but your hands will get the benefit
of a natural moisterizer!
