My mother's the great cook so I'm just trying to learn the basics. She cooks by pinch and feel, no recipe.
I just learned what a difference lemon juice makes to tuna salad so I thought I'd seek out some more easy but effective tricks if I could.
Two that I'd like to improve on are French Toast, mine is always dry and cardboardy. (I do add sugar to the egg mix)
and
Cornbread, which I'm just making from the albers box and still can't get right. It's always dry and crumbly. I tried adding yogurt didn't help. Also using Olive oil instead of vegetable oil.
Also my chicken comes out dry would it be good to marinade in lemon juice? or something??? I dunno
I should also mention we all try to cut back on butters and other fats.
Thanks for any tips!!!
