TEASPOONFUL OF WATER
There is one place in London where the fried onions are crisper, more delicate in flavour and aroma, than any other. , Would you know the secret? It is that when the fat is made hot in the frying pan, a teaspoonful of cold water is added just before the sliced onions are put ml That’s all, and the chef who gave this hint says the smell of the onions whilst being fried is also ameliorated. If you add one teaspoonful of boiling water to every yolk of egg you use to make mayonnaise sauce, and beat it in quickly, it will not take any time to beat in the oil and finish the sauce?” Here is a third wrinkle. A tablespoonful of water added to pancake batter at the last minute makes the pancakes delicately crisp; it has the same effect on a Yorkshire pudding. Don’t add too much water; a tablespoonful to a pint of the liquid ingredients is about correct. When making omelettes remember a teaspoouful of water beaten un with two eggs makes an omelette lighter and more tender. The same remark applies to scrambled eggs.
