      @cleanfreakgermaphobe Like the potato peeling hack..can see where that would save a ton of time as long as you get it on the stove in time. Curious how long you had to boil whole potatoes? Mine were always cut. If you get an early start, I can see where that would be very helpful.

      How do you save time peeling the potatoes if you first have to cut them, then boil them then soak them in ice water? You could have peeled ten times as many potatoes in that time.

    If you are using parchment paper to line a cookie sheet, meatloaf pan, or anything just crunch up the paper in a ball and wet it with cold water under the kitchen sink. Then roll it out onto pan. Works great. You can mold it then. Also ysed for cooking meat in oven.

    Remember how big the paper towels USED to be? Can't believe they weren't changed a long time ago. Awhile back my husband would tear several paper towels in half (the new smaller ones) I realized I could get away with the small squares most of the time. So I cut up a bunch with a scissors. But cutting the whole roll is a GREAT idea! Thank you!

    I've used the paper towel hack for a long time. Difference is that I place the rolls in opposite directions so that as one unrolls, the other one rolls up. Thus keeping the rolls neat. This hack is especially useful if you have mistakenly purchased the old standard rolls with square sheets.

    Concerning parchment paper in the loaf pan...that was a lot of work. Just turn the pan over and cut parchment paper-I use was paper- the size of the pan. Use a bread knife, spatula or similar to go around the inside of the pan to loosen the finished bread and it will fall right out of the pan. Just peel off the wax paper and flip the bread over. Done!

    Honestly, I use rubber bands wen I close up bags. Such as chips, veggies etc. I've been doing it for years and it works great also when you want to take the skin off of anything you boil it like she did and throw it in ice water that's called blanching.

  • @badad0166
    @badad0166 ปีที่แล้ว

    4:13 Again, a warm crumple bath will break down the sheet so it will form easily to the container with no cutting (watertight). The water helps it adhere too.
    If you can't afford the cutting board, the one you have will stay put with a dish towel underneath it.

    I make kitchen rolls go further, not by cutting them in half into toilet roll sized small rolls. Instead I first tear off a sheet & then tear it down the middle at right angles to the perforated edge. It tears straight & easily, so you can use one piece now & the other later. If you try to tear in the other direction it doesn't work because it is like tearing across the grain rather than down the grain.
    Many times you don't need the whole sheet anyhow, example say to just grease a skillet or to wipe a small surface area, & strong quality kitchen roll is expensive !

    You don't cut four squares out of the corners of your paper. You cut a diagonal line on each corner up to the length of the square (height of pan) and then those pieces crisscross over each other in your pan so that nothing touches the pan.

      Much easier to clean and no grease added to the food. I’d also add, better for the environment than an aerosol spray.

    I will use that cupcake liner hack. I saw a recipe recently that needed a tall cupcake liner. I was taken aback when I saw the price of the ones used in the recipe. This will work perfectly.

    I've read that vitamins are found in the peels of potatoes, so I no longer peel them. Wendy's doesn't peel its fries anymore either. And they taste fine.

      The peels are also where you find the solanine, the poison that is naturally in potato peels and green potatoes.

    If you wet your parchment completely, it will form into any pan easily. Squeeze out excess water first. Works every time

    In the late 80s I heard about dishwasher cooking. Someone successfully did a fish. An egg will soft boil. The food was sealed in a container while the dishwasher ran so there was no chance of contamination. I agree it’s a fail and my husband and I still laugh about the effort.

    If you will crumble the parchment paper up in a ball a couple of times.. you can then mold it to fit lots of containers of different sizes. THANKS FOR INFO.

  • @petermurnane5407
    @petermurnane5407 ปีที่แล้ว +70

    If you want parchment paper to stay in any shaped tin, just crumple it up into a ball then smooth it out flat, and it will line any shaped tin - just press it into the side.
    Also, the potato thing isn't a bad idea, but a vegetable peeler is much easier and ultimately less work.

    • @im1who84u

      I can't remember the last time I peeled potatoes. I just wash them and use them skins and all, even for mashed potatoes, potato salad...
      However......... If I did want to peel them I would use my Johnny Apple Peeler and think it might do the job depending on the size and shape of the potatoes.

      Crumpling the paper works great and doesn't leave leaky corners like the cut out method shown.

    • @Aurora3242
      @Aurora3242 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I do that all the time. If it's something we use often - then twist it a few times then fold back the top, encasing it. Stays every time.

    • @loisruthstrom8143
      @loisruthstrom8143 ปีที่แล้ว

      I save the twist ties from the produce bags. I use them for crackers, pasta, cookies and for the one that got lost from the bread. Paper clips work for chip bags in a pinch. I learned that substitute teaching when the kids brought unfinished snacks to the classroom to eat after school. Two bigger clips work for big chip bags. 😀👍
