  • Purchase meat in bulk and as soon as I get it home I separate it in freezer bags in portions for four. Then, I fill each bag with a different marinade .Some get rosemary sprigs, others sage, yet others cut lemons, and some even orange juice or wine. That way, if we'd like meat for dinner I put one of these bags in the fridge in the morning before leaving for work and... voila, it's defrosted and marinated by evening. All I have to do is pour the contents in a pan and throw it in the oven. Laura Pazzaglia, San Mateo, CA new (Added: 25-Aug-2003)

  • Judy Anne Wagner from Boone, North Carolina writes: Whenever I make cookie dough, I double the ingredients and bake only what I need at that time. I load the remaning mix into 7 oz paper cups, placing these cups into a ziplock bag to freeze for future baking. One 7 oz cup holds enough dough for about a dozen freshly baked cookies. One mixing mess to clean up, and freshly baked cookies whenever you want them! FabulousFoods.com new (Added: 25-Aug-2003)
  • To bring butter or margarine to room temperature quickly, use a grater to shred it into your mixing bowl. FabulousFoods.com new (Added: 25-Aug-2003)
  • When making drop cookies, make a large batch, form into balls and freeze on cookie sheet. When frozen put into zip lock bags and store in freezer. Later, just remove amount needed from freezer, place on cookie sheets and bake while still frozen. This way you will always have a variety of cookies on hand.
