Kitchen Hint of the Day!

More Nutty hints to pass along.....

* Use ground nuts in pastry dough or sprinkle on the bottom of pie shells for a delightful change of taste.

• * Toasting nuts before adding to the recipe will yield a brighter flavor.

• * Always let toasted nuts cool down before grinding or chopping to prevent them from becoming oily or pasty in texture.

• * To toast: Spread nuts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place in 350-degree F. oven. Toast until golden, about 12 to 15 minutes. When using a toaster oven, cut the time in half.

• * It's best to toast only what you need at the time as toasted nuts will not store as well as raw nuts.
