  • The Fast Way to Make Delicious Roasted Garlic

    Smearing roasted garlic onto a toasted baguette or baked potato or adding it to your salad dressing are all wonderful ways to create delicious flavor. Here’s a quick way to roast garlic, thanks to Mark Bittman. Break a garlic head into individual cloves, but don’t peel them. Spread the garlic on a baking sheet, sprinkle it with salt and drizzle with olive oil. Bake the garlic until the cloves tender, about 30 minutes in a 375° oven. Then, toss that roasted garlic with popcorn or add it to hamburger meat for meatloaf.

  • How to Make a Bacon Grease Fire-Starter

    Here’s a tip for bacon-lovers.  Next time you feel like making a roaring fire in your fireplace, don’t buy fire-starters at the hardware store. Instead, buy bacon at the market. Make BLTs, but don’t throw that bacon grease out. Roll up a single paper towel and place it in a paper cup. Pour in a little bacon grease. Refrigerate the grease-filled paper cup so it doesn’t become rancid (in fact, make a bunch of these fire-starters at a time) and pull one or two cups out the next time you make a fire.
