Never boil eggs again
Want super smooth, perfectly cooked boiled eggs? Stop boiling them. Bring the water to the boil, then turn off the heat and cover the pan. Leave them for 6-12 minutes depending on how soft or hard you like them – there are several good apps that will help you time this, based on how large your eggs are and how well you like them cooked.
Upscale your cheese sauce
Use packet mix (gasp!) mix with half water/half milk and then add a good dollop of ricotta cheese. Pour over broccoli and cauliflower and bake for about 20 minutes. You can thank us later.
Grate your butter
Use a cheese grater to grate butter for making pie dough if you don’t have a food processor and have to rub the butter in by hand.
