Tim's Tips

Have eggs in the fridge that have met the expiration date?  Don't throw them out.  Hard boil them and put them back into the fridge.  They'll keep for a couple weeks and make for a healthy quick snack or a nice salad topping.

Tim's Tips
When cooking with any stock try to use unsalted if you can find it.  This stuff is usually meat flavored sodium in a box.  Unsalted or even low sodium is becoming more available.  Its healthier and puts the cook in charge of the seasoning.  As it should be!

   Note to  self...Whenever roasting with fig jam glaze always line the pan with aluminum foil.  I'm still scrubbing 3 days later and the pan is (was) non-stick.
