Great Seasoning Tip For Any Meats




I am a meat lover but after I learn how to cook meat it came like a breeze to me. I am always watching the cooking channel in my spare time. And the tips below is all that I have learn while watching these programs. Enjoy!
 

Did you know that overnight meat tastes better than when it has just been cooked? Leftover meat usually tastes better because when its left over night the seasoning get the chance to soak in to the meat letting you taste the entire flavor that you have put into it. I have got some great seasoning tips for you below.

1.  Stew Secret Ingredient
When you are cooking lamb or beef stew, try this secret ingredient add a few tablespoons of black coffee and your stew will have a nice color and a rich taste. This tip also works well for gravies.
2.  Quick Thickeners
An easy method of thickening stews, soups, or creamed vegetables is to add a small amount of quick-cooking oats a grated potato, or a some instant mashed potatoes. Never add flour directly as it will clump. However, you can mix flour with melted butter and add it that mixture to food. 
3.  For Tender Tasty Chili
Marinate meat for chili in bear. It’s a great tenderizer for tough, inexpensive cuts of beef stew and it will add great flavor to it. All you need to do is soak the meat for an hour before cooking or marinate it overnight and leave it in the refrigerator.
4.  Seasoning Removing Remedies
Here is a great tip when cooking with whole garlic cloves that you plan to remove before the dish id served: stick a toothpick firmly in the garlic so it will be easy to take out. Put herbs that fall apart during cooking in a tea infuser to make them easy to remove when your pot is finished cooking. 
5.  Gravy Secrets
Most people will probably use flour or cornstarch to thicken gravy. Although flour will thicken the gravy make sure that you don’t use too much. Gravy thicken as it cools down so if you use too much flour the gravy van become  unappealingly congealed by the time you are  ready for seconds. It may also taste “floury” rather than having the flavor of the meat juices it was made with. To dispense with the flour entirely, glazed your roasting pan with water then add a small amount of butter before reducing the mixture over high heat while stirring frequently until it is the right consistency.

Juicy Tips For Fish Lovers

(Ever since I can remember I always enjoy eating sea food. Fish was one of my favorite dish. So when it comes to fish I am always ready the only thing that I really didn't like was getting rid of the fish smell I have listed a few tips that I hope you will enjoy reading)



When you are dealing with fish you must remember that you have to also deal with the smell too. These tips will help you to deal with those smelly seafood.
Scaling Fish
If you are gutsy enough to scale your own fish rub white vinegar on the scales let the fish sit for about 10 minutes and then they’ll rub right off. Put the fish in a large plastic bag first hold it by the tail to prevent the scales from flying all over your kitchen.                    
Get Rid Of Fish Odor
Before handling fish rub your hands with lemon juice and you won’t have to deal with the fish smell for the rest of the day. After frying fish put a little white vinegar into the pan to help get rid of the odor on the surface.
Marinate Your Fish
If you are grilling a thick fish steak marinate them for 15 minutes in lemon or lime juice before cooking. The acid from the juice “cooks “the flesh will cook a bit faster, cutting down on the time it takes to cook and your fish is less likely to dry out.
Cornflake Your Fish
If you want your fish with a crunch to the bite and with less calories well, here is what you should do. Use cornflakes instead of breadcrumbs t coat your fish fillets. Not only does the cornflake contain fewer calories than the breadcrumbs but they are less absorbent and it will come out a bit lighter in color and the fish won’t absorb too much oil.
Dry Fish Fries Better
When we are frying fish be sure the surface of the fish is dry before putting it into the oil. Moisture can cool the oil down and make the fish cook unevenly.
For Coking Fish Quick & Easy
Our favorite way to prepare fish is also super quick and tasty. Wrap your fillets individually in foil adding a bit of chopped onion salt and pepper a spring of dill and a drizzle of olive oil. Bake for approximately 30 minutes in a 350F oven then unwrap for a tender flavorful dinner.
