Cooking Tip

Water Chestnut Storage

You want to store your canned, store bought water chestnuts in a cool and dry place. One purchased, write a date on the can and make sure that you use it within a year. Once opened, the water chestnuts need to be used within three days.

Cooking Tip

Brown Sugar Storage

In order for your brown sugar to not become a solid rock, go to your local kitchen store and ask them for a brown sugar terra cotta disk. They are inexpensive and a great way to preserve the life of your brown sugar.
