You're Making Sauce! Not Soup!

Wise sayings from our LCB Chefs:

• Too cold egg whites don't whisk up
• High acidity apples have higher pectin
• Grand Marnier - Yellow Band (ribbon) for cooking; Red Band for drinking
• You're the chef - control the heat
• Mushrooms will soak up pretty much whatever you offer them; use little butter
• Don't eat wild snails - due to concentration of pesticides
• When plating rare sliced meat put sauce under not over the meat
• Poaching pears first ensures they release less liquid during frying

Just a few odd and ends - since I didn't actually make a dinner tonight and lunch was Sunday leftovers.
Maybe something interesting tomorrow.
