Cooking Tips 102

Moist chicken
If you want your chicken to stay nice and moist while grilling, marinate it in yogurt. This technique is often used in the Middle East and India, and adding spices like garlic, cumin and black pepper to the marinade will emulate the flavors of these areas.

Adding eggs
If any recipe requires that raw eggs be added to a hot mixture, wait until the mixture cools unless the recipe says otherwise. Raw eggs + hot mixture will actually end up cooking the eggs and the whole recipe could be ruined.

Chopping peppers
If you are preparing peppers for crudite or some other form of cooking, be sure to remove the seeds before serving or adding them. If any of your guests are not particularly fond of spicy food, this will take away much of the heat of the peppers.
