Cooking tips

Kitchen Tip : Solid disk elements and radiant elements under glass stove tops are easier to clean than conventional electric coil elements, but they take longer to heat up and use more electricity.

Most food, from fruit to fish, has a season -a time when it is abundant and at its best. Knowledge about food's seasons was once essential to survival and became culturally ingrained over the centuries. Today, we have all but lost this accumulated wisdom. Does this matter, in an age where technology can bring us anything we want to eat, whenever we want it?

Kitchen Tip : Make sure stovetop electric coils work properly. A worn-out element is a real power drain.

Cook safely

Don't put anything metallic inside the microwave.

Don't overload sockets - one plug per socket is the rule, especially if the appliance takes a lot of power (like a kettle).
Don't run extension cables across the floor as they can become worn.
Is the electric kettle leaking? This can be dangerous.
