(post, Culinate staff)


primary-image, l

How To Break An Egg is a one-of-a-kind resource of more than 1,400 kitchen-tested tips, shortcuts, and ingenious solutions to culinary emergencies, all organized in an easy-to-access format for quick reference or more leisurely reading.

Look under “basil” in the ingredients chapter and you’ll find tips for drying it, keeping its bright green color, and making your pesto go further. Look under “cookies” in the cooking chapter for clever ways to roll out cookie dough without it sticking, or to form perfectly shaped cookies, or to get just the texture you want in your chocolate chips.
