I just recently came across this tip, but have already used it numerous times:
When you have a baked casserole that needs to be covered with foil, and you've filled the dish so full that the foil touches the food, just grease the inside of the foil before you put it on the dish. This is especially handy for dishes with cheese or tomato sauce (acidic) on top.
I usually do my greasing with butter, though you can use oil, shortening, or cooking spray if you want. I use butter because it's fairly healthy and won't leave marks on my pans [0]. :)
To participate in Kitchen Tip Tuesdays: Post a kitchen tip in your blog, with a link to this post. Then come here and add your name, tip subject, and URL to this post! Links must be family friendly, as always. If you don't have a blog but would still like to share a tip, just leave a comment here with your tip! Everyone's ideas are appreciated. :) Note: Please link to your individual post, not your blog's main/front page! Thanks for participating! :)
