Making Chicken and Dumplings……………………….
How do you thicken homemade chicken and dumplings? – Add flour or cornstarch to a mixing bowl and stir in enough cold water to form a thin paste with no lumps. It takes 3 to 4 tablespoons to thicken thin broth in a large pot, but use 1 or 2 tablespoons of thickening agent for a small pot or if you only want to thicken it slightly. My Grandmother made the best!

That Healthy Pasta…………………..
When eaten in moderation, pasta can be part of a healthy diet. Whole-grain pasta may be a better choice for many, as it is lower in calories and carbs but higher in fiber and nutrients. … Calories can stack up fast when adding high-fat, high-calorie toppings like cream-based sauces and cheeses.

It’s Nuts………………………..
To preserve the quality of your nuts, keep them away from onions and other high-odor foods. They tend to take on the smell of things around them. Store shelled nuts at room temperature for up to three months. Store shelled or unshelled nuts in the refrigerator for up to six months, or in the freezer for a year or more.

Buying and Storing Fresh Salmon Hints………………………
A whole salmon should have plump, clear, shiny eyes. The skin should be shiny and moist, and if filleted, the meat should be plump without wrinkles and look firm. If the eyes are dried out and the flesh looks cracked, mushy, or dried,,,, move on. If it looks good, before they wrap it up in paper, ask to smell it.
Proper storage is key to maintaining freshness. Salmon can be kept for up to two days in the refrigerator. Remove the salmon from its wrappings, rinse thoroughly with cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Wrap the fish tightly in a layer of plastic wrap, followed by another layer of aluminum foil.

Buying Broccoli……………………….
Choose broccoli heads with tight, green florets and firm stalks. The broccoli should feel heavy for its size. The cut ends of the stalks should be fresh and moist looking. Avoid broccoli with dried out or browning stem ends or yellowing florets.
Consume fresh broccoli as soon as you can as it will not keep long. To store, mist the unwashed heads, wrap loosely in damp paper towels, and refrigerate. Use within 2 to 3 days. Do not store broccoli in a sealed container or plastic bag.

Buying Pork………………………..
When buying pork, look for cuts with a relatively small amount of fat over the outside and with meat that is firm and a grayish pink color. For best flavor and tenderness, meat should have a small amount of marbling. Select pork just before checking out at the supermarket register.
