Kitchen Tip Tuesday: Aluminum Foil...who'da thunk?!


I love making CHICKEN BURRITOS but the bottom gets a bit hard and crispy no matter how creamy it is. I tried lowering the temp and cooking a bit longer, I tried cooking it covered.  Nope.  Still crunchy and hard to cut.  *sigh*  My husband asked a former student (who is now studying culinary arts) if he had any ideas.  When he told me to line the pan with aluminum foil I scoffed at the notion that a fresh out of high school kid had the answer.  You know what?  It works!  Problem solved! Give it a whirl!    ; )

Cool! Another cool foil tip is when you bring celery home, take it out of the plastic bag and wrap it in foil instead. It will keep for weeks! I tried it and it works. So now we get the huge packages of celery at Costco and wrap each one in foil. They last for a really long time this way. ~Kelly in MN
