But all baking pans are not created equal. Depending on what you’re baking and what type of pan you’re baking in, you’ll need to prepare it a little differently. Follow the guidelines below to ensure an easy release for specific baked goods but there are a few over-arching “rules” you should keep in mind for the best results, no matter what.

How To Store Garlic So It Stays Potent And Fresh

How to Store a Head of Garlic First things first, start with good, fresh bulbs of garlic. When you’re at the supermarket, look for firm cloves and tight skins.

Keep in mind even organic apples may use organic pesticides, so you’ll want to make sure you’re cleaning your organic apples just like you would conventionally grown produce.

I Tried A Plastic Free Beauty Routine For A Week In Honor Of Earth Day

While I like to consider myself fairly eco-conscious, my beauty routine is definitely the area that I overlook most—largely due to the fact that change seems almost impossible. However, with all the incredible steps that sustainable beauty brands have been taking to make a difference lately, it seemed selfish on my part to go without at least an attempt to improve. I challenged myself to swap my entire beauty routine—haircare, skincare, and all—for entirely plastic-free products....

Is It Bad To Sleep In A Bra It Depends On The Bra Here S What To Avoid

“Whether you wear a bra at night is really a comfort preference,” explains Jené Luciani Sena, bra expert and author of The Bra Book. “Some women are just more comfortable wearing them.” Wearing a bra, in general, can feel, well, unnecessary. In fact, there’s even a study that suggests wearing a bra too often can lead to sagging. However, Luciani Sena encourages you to take that short-lived study with a grain of salt....

Jupiter S Dandruff Relief Shampoo Soothes My Itchy Scalp

For years, I never gave a second thought to taking care of my hair and scalp beyond the day-to-day shampooing and conditioning—in fact, sometimes I got so tired of washing my chest-length hair that I would skip out on conditioner altogether. But to miss out on washing entirely was never an option. My hair tends to become so greasy and itchy if I don’t wash it within two days; for a while, I exasperatedly washed it every single night....

Key Lime Pie Recipe Upgrades

This crowd-favorite custard pie is creamy, tart, and sweet, and as the name suggests, requires one coveted ingredient: key limes. Key limes are not the familiar, deep green fruit commonly found at supermarkets, instead, they’re smaller, yellowish, and very tart. These specialty limes with floral notes are no longer commercially grown in the Florida Keys, but imported key limes can be found at grocers if you’re lucky. Often it’s bottled key lime juice that’s used for this luscious dessert....
