Tuesday's Tip of the Day

When preparing a recipe that calls for a liquid fat and a sticky ingredient,

such as honey or corn syrup...

...measure the oil first. 

Swirl it around a bit in your liquid measuring cup.

Then measure your honey or syrup.

You will find that the sticky liquid 

just slips right out of the measuring cup!

I used this tip recently when preparing the marinade for these

tasty Beef Kabobs, featured a couple weeks ago.
