Kitchen mistakes not to repeat
If you have to simmer a piece of beef for at least two hours, avoid raising the cooking temperature in order to go faster: your meat will become harsh and your sauce will look like an indigestible bizarre syrup, so be careful! For those who rinse their pasta under cold water after cooking, you greatly reduce the flavor of yours, especially if you had prepared in a vegetable broth: once your pasta is cooked, drain the cooking water and do not touch anything (today the pasta making mode makes them unbeatable for the most part). Never season a salad too soon: prepare your dressing while lettuce leaves are rinsed and wrung out; avoid mixing before serving otherwise your leaves will soften and your composition will not be very appetizing...

As far as we are concerned, at freehoroscopo.com, we will choose chocolate fondant. We remind you the fundamentals: in a saucepan over low heat, put butter and chocolate until they bind in a promising whole. Add small amounts of sugar and whole eggs and then sifted flour.
