Lemon Pepper Grinder

I use a Lemon Pepper grinder for pierogies and seasoning eggs. I used to use a little butter on the Pierogies but with the lemon pepper I find it provides enough flavor without the extra calories. Be sure to read the label however - I found one jar had salt added now I make sure it is only black pepper and dried lemon rind.

Freeze Herbs and Other Fresh Seasonings

Do you like using fresh herbs in your cooking, but never use a whole pack? Waste money on those jars of ready chopped seasoning?

Save money and time by:

1) Preparing
Fresh Herbs - Finely chop
Fresh Garlic - Finely chop/press/grate/shred
Fresh Ginger - Finely chop/grate/shred
Citrus Rind - Finely chop/grate/shred
Stock & Sauces - Remove any surface flotsam/fat

2) Press/pour into an ice cube tray and freeze

3) Transfer to baggies and label before storing in the freezer
