Quick Hint Tuesday

Kapoosh Universal Knife Block--with these knife blocks you aren't limited to a "set". They are safe storage for all styles and sizes of knives. The center is dishwasher cleanable. Target sells them.

Best ideas from the August issue of Fine Cooking:

Brown Paper Blotter--Use old paper grocery sacks as a blotter for cutting meats or fish, peeling potatoes or other veggies & fruit, draining fried foods.

Storing Cheese--wrap cheese in wax paper instead of plastic wrap so it can breathe and doesn't mold.

Salad dressing--don't overdress your salad. You can always add more, but you can never take it away.
