Tips and Tricks to Help You Cook Like A Pro
I’ve picked up a few tricks of the trade along the way that have helped me really impress others with my cooking. I’d love to share these tricks with you now!
Breads
To get a nice brown glaze on top of any homemade bread/biscuits/croissants, brush melted butter on top of the dough when there are about 5 minutes left of baking.
Egg Replacer
For cookies and brownies, use ground flax seed as an egg substitute. You need 1 tablespoon of ground flax seed with 3 tablespoons of water for each egg. Stir well and set for 15 minutes.
For cheesecake, mix cornstarch and sour cream. You need 1 tablespoon of sour cream and 1/3 tablespoon of cornstarch (plus 1 tbsp water, as needed) for each egg.
Chocolate Chip Cookies/Brownies
To keep cookies and brownies soft and moist, add a slice of white bread on wax paper to the top of your cookie or brownie container. This keeps the cookies and brownies chewy and moist.

Enchiladas
Mix green and red enchilada sauce for a professional taste. No one will guess what you did!
Pasta
Mix 1 spoon of Pesto and 1 spoon of Alfredo sauce with your Marinara sauce for a heartier taste.
