1. Freezing vegetables, mushrooms, berries, herbs
You can pre-cut bell peppers into strips, break broccoli cabbage into florets, grate carrots, chop herbs, etc. On the day of the holiday meal, all you have to do is take out the ingredients and throw them into the pot. Especially convenient to use frozen mushrooms. They need to be boiled or roasted before being frozen. Using pre-prepared foods will save almost half a day.
2. Proper storage of recipes
Yes, yes! The rule seems trivial and simple, but few people follow it. A neatly designed recipe book can save you from frantically turning over pages or searching for the right paper with a recipe (and that's how - hastily - they often write them down).
Techniques
Often housewives are looking for unthinkable cooking secrets, forgetting that you can equip your kitchen with "helpers". But they speed up any process in the first place! For example, multicooker, steamer or compact multi-baker. There are lots of options, and it's worth taking care of the purchase in advance.
Carefully chosen meat and fish
If you buy pieces without bones in advance, you will not have to spend a lot of time cleaning them during cooking. And most importantly - you can safely serve the dishes to guests.
5. Unusual sauce
The New Year's table is excellent not only a variety of dishes, but also a bright accent in the form of a sauce. The classic salad Olivier with regular mayonnaise will no longer surprise anyone. But if you dress the dish with mayonnaise with additives, the guests will surely mark your culinary masterpiece. For example, the brand "Maheev" offers mayonnaise "Spicy" with jalapeño peppers and "Yadrenny" with grainy mustard and horseradish. It's the same mayonnaise but the taste is more interesting. And you don't have to waste time mixing sauces yourself.
6. The secret to fresh-looking fruit
Many fruits darken quickly, so hostesses prefer to slice them almost to the chime. But this is embarrassing! Peeled and sliced apples and pears can be put for a couple of seconds in water, diluted with lemon juice - then a spectacular slicing will be ready long before midnight, and the ladies can safely put on their holiday outfits
