Food and 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.

Oven Tips : Switch your oven off a few minutes before your food is ready - it will stay hot enough to finish cooking the food.
