How to keep your tupperware stain free!
I'm totally Italian and I have an abundance of my mom's homemade sauce sitting in my freezer in tupperware containers. After using these containers over and over with tomato sauce, they tend to get stained with an orange tint. I recently heard of a great (and easy) fix to prevent this. All How to know if your guinea pig is happy
My daughter got a guinea pig for Christmas from Santa. It is our first guinea pig, and we have never been around one before now. She makes all kinds of noises and seems shy, so we never know if she is happy, afraid, upset, etc.
We wanted to learn her cues so that we know what to do and respond appropriately. I did some research and came up with a couple of very informative sites done by some seasoned guinea pig owners.
How to make a juicy turkey
Cooking a turkey is like an art. If you want to improve your chances of delivering a juicy bird, try brining.
Brining adds moisture and flavor to poultry and helps to keep it from drying out. A turkey can be a serious investment in time so you want to make sure it is perfect, especially if you're entertaining. Whether you grill, smoke, fry, or roast your turkey, you should use a brined bird.
Supplies: To properly brine a turkey you need to start the night before you plan to cook. You will need at least 10 to 12 hours (plan on 1 hour per pound of turkey), a container large enough to hold your turkey and enough brine to cover it. You'll also need salt, water, sugar, seasonings, and enough room to refrigerate it. A large stainless steel stock pot or even a 5 gallon clean plastic bucket would make excellent containers. Whatever container you choose the turkey needs to have enough room to be turned so it should be big. Both Reynolds (Oven Roasting Bag for Turkeys) and Ziploc (XL Storage Bag) make very large food safe sealable bags that are great for brining.
