The 3:1 Ratio: For great tasting homemade salad dressings, the ratio of oil to vinegar should be 3:1. This ratio ensures that your dressing has enough body and isn't too acidic.
Ingredients Lift: If your baked goods suffer from "bottom of the pan" syndrome (your added ingredients such as chocolate chips and nuts end up at the bottom instead of distributed throughout) try coating them in a light layer of flour before adding to the batter.
Quickly Soften Butter: You're baking and your recipe calls for softened butter, but yours is solid and cold right out of the fridge. What do you do? Roll the butter out like you would a pie crust. Place it between two large pieces of parchment or wax paper and press down, rolling the butter out until it's ¼ inch thick or less.
