[Continuing comparison of “professional” hacks and a “hack” hacks]
MARTHA’S WAY #6: To easily remove burnt-on food from your skillet, simply add a drop or two of dish soap and enough water to cover bottom of pan, and bring to a boil on stovetop.
MY WAY: Eat carry-out from Chili's every night and avoid cooking.
MARTHA’S WAY #7: Spray your Tupperware with nonstick cooking spray before pouring in tomato based sauces and there won't be any stains.
MY WAY: Feed your garbage disposal and there won't be any leftovers.
MARTHA’S WAY #8: When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking pan, use a bit of the dry cake mix instead and there won't be any white mess on the outside of the cake.
MY WAY: Go to the bakery. They'll even decorate the cake for you.
MARTHA’S WAY #9: If you accidentally over salt a dish while it's still cooking, drop in a peeled potato and it will absorb the excess salt for an instant "fix me up"
MY WAY: If you over salt a dish while you are cooking, that's too bad. My motto: I made it and you will eat it and I don't care how bad it tastes.
MARTHA’S WAY #10: Wrap celery in aluminum foil when putting in the refrigerator and it will keep for weeks.
MY WAY: Celery? Never heard of the stuff. Is that even edible?
