Lately, I can't seem to remember the most basic of cooking skills. In the last month, I've looked up how to hard boil eggs three times, since each time I go to do it, I've forgotten. So, here is my list of things I never remember how to do, any suggestions of things to add?
Corn on the Cob
Leave the husk on, preheat oven to 350 degrees. place corn in husk in oven for 30 minutes.
Hard Boiled Eggs
Put eggs in a single layer of pan and cover with cold water until water is 1-2 inches above eggs. Add some salt and bring to a rolling boil. Turn off heat and cover, let sit for 12 minutes. Rinse eggs in cold water and then refrigerate until needed.
Brown Rice
1 cup rice to 2 1/2 cups water. add rice, olive oil, salt and water to pan. bring to a boil. reduce heat and simmer, covered 40-50 minutes.
Quinoa
The ratio is normally 1:2 and you rinse the quinoa first. However, I have recently found a website devoted to quinoa and she has a different suggestion I tried that today, and it was the best quinoa I've ever had.
Buttermilk
I never have buttermilk on hand, but you can make your own. Put one Tb white vinegar or lemon juice into a measuring cup, then fill up the rest of the way up to one cup line with milk. Let stand five minutes.
