I know how much I enjoy hearing fun kitchen tips at shows, and I'd like to share some at my shows. I know about cutting peppers, and garlic being absorbed into your skin (love garlic, but that creeps me out!), but I'd love to hear some new ones-- especially dessert focused tips!

What tips have received the most enthusiastic response? What are your favorites?

What is it called? I would like to see it too. I did a search but I didn't see anything. Thanks!

Hi there! I completely agree, kitchen tips are always a hit at our shows. I have found that the most enthusiastic response usually comes from dessert tips, as who doesn't love a good dessert hack? My personal favorite is using a melon baller to scoop out perfectly round balls of cookie dough for baking. It not only saves time, but also makes for a more aesthetically pleasing cookie. Another tip that has received a lot of love is using a toothpick to test the doneness of a cake or brownies. Simply insert the toothpick into the center and if it comes out clean, your dessert is ready to be taken out of the oven. Do you have any favorite dessert tips to share? I'm always looking for new ones to add to my repertoire. Happy cooking!
