Answer A: Efficient ways to separate egg whites and yolk
Here's a wonderful trick I learned a long time ago. 1. Get a plastic drinking bottle. Not the really solid kind, something you can squeeze easily. Take the cap off. 2. Wrap a bit of sticky tape (or cling film, but tape is way easier) over the rim to get rid of any sharp edges. 3. Squeeze the bot...

Answer A: How do I best turn an omelet?
If you can avoid it... don't. Many ovens (certainly here in the UK; not sure about anywhere else) have either an integrated or a separate grill, with heating elements or gas flames at the top of the oven. That's exactly what you need here: instead of trying to turn the omelette over and all the me...

Answer A: How can I preserve the crispiness of tortillas in a tortilla casserole?
These are the easiest ways I've found to keep things crisp if they're going into a dish where they might absorb liquid. This applies to other things too, not just tortillas. Pre-bake. Bake your tortillas (or whatever you're using) until they've crisped up. They don't have to be totally dry, but ...

Comment Post #275956 @manassehkatz Haven't heard them called convection ovens before, but it might well be the same thing. In the UK at least, temperatures for fan ovens are almost always 20 degrees lower because of the better circulation.

Article Gluten-free lemon drizzle cake
Super easy gluten-free cake. As with many things GF, the trick is to make the mixture wetter than you otherwise would. You really can't tell this is any different to a regular cake. If you want to make this as non-gluten-free, you can - omit either the lemon juice or one egg from the cake mixture ...

Question Unit conversions & should we use country information?
We all prefer different units; that's a fact of sharing cooking internationally. That's relatively easy to solve here - we can put up a unit-conversions post here on Meta as a resource for folks who want to convert to their own preferred units. What's slightly more problematic are things like eggs...

Answer A: How can I rescue a soft cake without losing too much flavour?
Take it as a lesson for next time! Fundamentally, if your cake isn't done yet, there's not much you can do except bake it for longer - there are things you can do before you cook it, but once it's in a half-baked state, there's not much to be done except finish baking. For cakes with fruit in t...

Answer A: How do I adjust bread-machine bread when using all-purpose flour instead of bread flour?
The major (I say major - that's a relative term) difference between bread flour and all-purpose flour is the gluten and protein content; bread flour has more of both. In practical terms, this means that bread flour rises slightly more and that dough made with bread flour is more coherent and less pro...
