How to Cure Meat?

Curing meat is an age-old process used to extend the shelf life of meat and add flavor. Curing meat involves salting, drying, and smoking the meat. Curing can also include adding other spices, herbs, or sugars to the meat to enhance flavor. The process of curing meats starts with salting the meat. This is done to draw out moisture and add flavor to the meat. Once the meat has been cured, it can be stored for long periods. It is important to store the meat in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. If stored properly, cured meats can last for months or even years.

How To Install Refrigeration Coolant Cartridge

It is essential to have the right tools for the job. Refrigeration coolant cartridges look intimidating initially, but they aren't that hard to install. You just need a few basic tools to get started. The first thing is to shut off the unit and bleed the lines. Once the unit is shut off, remove the lines from the heat exchanger. Next, drain the system. There will be a drain cock on the unit. Open the cock and let the coolant drain into a bucket. After the system is drained, remove the old cartridge. You will see a few screws holding the cartridge in place. Remove the screws and lift the cartridge out of the unit. Now, install the new cartridge. To do this, put it into place and secure it with the screws taken out earlier. Now, fill the system with coolant and bleed the lines as you turn the unit back on. Now you have a new, working unit once again.

How To Make French Press Coffee

French press coffee is a great option for those who appreciate a stronger, bolder flavor profile. It gets its flavor from being brewed in a pot with loose-leafed coffee beans instead of being forced through a paper filter. The immersion method brings out the coffee beans’ natural oils, which gives the final product a richer taste.

Things to know about Tortilla Presses

These are electric or gas-powered devices that flatten out tortillas to make a larger surface area. The tortillas are placed between a grill or press and a non-stick surface and then cooked until crispy. These appliances flatten the dough and cook it at the same time, making them a healthier alternative to using a pan or a conventional grill. You can also use a tortilla press to make other types of flatbreads, such as naan or lavash.


Most are made with an aluminum or steel exterior, but some are made with a non-stick surface that makes cleanup even easier. Most have a handle on top to make moving and handling easier, but some have a stand that makes them easier to store. They are also safe to use in the oven and are dishwasher safe.
