Awesome Ways to Utilize Grill Mats

If you are interested in purchasing some grill mats for yourself, you may want to check on Amazon for cool Grill Mats stuffs, . When I first discovered grills mats several months ago, I loved the idea so much I decided to start selling my own!




Grill Mats Uses:


1. Fast Clean Up


How many times have you decided not to use your grill or barbecue because you didn’t want to clean it? (I’ve done it, I’ll admit.) The great thing about using grill mats is that you don’t have to worry about scraping the grate clean before using your grill! (A real plus when using a grill at a public park or beach too!)


Just lay your grill mat over the cooking grate, and you’ve instantly got a clean surface to cook on. Then you’re only minutes away from your next grilled masterpiece!

2. Cooking Small Delicasies


When you grill on a grill mat, you’re not only cooking on a clean surface, but you’re cooking on a continuous surface, too. A large cooking surface opens up a world of possibilities, making it much easier to cook things like shrimp, fruits, veggies, and more. No more fretting about your smaller foods falling through the grate!

How to Properly Trim Your Dog and Cat's Nails | Pet Nails

Unless your pet is a very active outdoor dog his nails will need to be trimmed on a regular basis – anywhere from once a week to once a month.

Pet nail trimming and grooming are activities that are often feared by both dogs and owners. The best way to calm your fears is to ask your Vet or a professional groomer to train you in the proper techniques for nail trimming. The best way to calm your dog’s fears is to train it from a very young age to be comfortable with the process.

If you don’t feel comfortable trimming your dog’s nails your vet or groomer will be happy to do this regularly. And often dogs do not need their nails trimmed if they go for frequent walks on footpaths or concrete. Just watch those dew claws (thumbs).

TYPES OF NAIL TRIMMERS


There are many different types of pet nail trimmers. Buy good quality trimmers that are sharp and designed for the correct size dog. They should be concave at the cutting edge, to avoid crushing the nail. Blunt or poor quality trimmers will split the nail. If the nails aren’t that long but are sharp you can simply file them or use a pumice stone to take off the tips. In the US it is common to use a dremel to slowly burr down the nails and this can be more gradual and safer than clipping.

New Healthy Cooking Tool | Vegetable Spiralizer

We all like traditional pasta, but lately we've noticed a new type of noodles. We're not talking about rice, corn, or quinoa spaghetti—we're talking about spiralized vegetables. The spiralizer is an inexpensive tool (Bestoffer veggie spiralizer - one of the best in it's field, retails for $13.29) that turns fresh veggies into faux-noodles (zoodles, if you will, but we won't). It isn't just for the carb-averse; everyone from home cooks to restaurant chefs are spiralizing.

Many models are about the size of a large toaster and function like a giant pencil sharpener for veggies. A firm, peeled veggie is held in place with a clamp over the grinder, and as the vegetable disappears into the hold, the cook uses a hand crank to make the gears work. The result is a pile of extra-long, gently curled ribbons. Interesting, but what makes vegetable spiralizer so great?

The Spiralizer Is a Restaurant Chef's Best Friend

Restaurant chefs, who have mountains of chopping and slicing to slog through, have a lot to love in the spiralizer. Amanda Cohen, chef and owner of the vegetarian restaurant Dirt Candy in New York City, first encountered the tool when working at an all-raw restaurant. "It made some boring jobs a lot easier," she explains. Dirt Candy now frequently serves spiralized vegetables. Chef Joshua McFadden of Ava Gene's in Portland, first began using a TBestoffer veggie spiralizer because, "I wanted a way to make perfect consistent cuts of pumpkin for a salad." The more commonplace mandoline slicer performs the same task, but the spiralizer produces prettier results.

Jonah Miller, chef and owner of Huertas, also in NYC, just may be the tool's biggest fan. "I think we use it more than any other restaurant in the city," he says, adding that they used their spiralizer so much, they added a drill function to cut down on the manual cranking.
But it's not just about the functionality. Says Cohen: "People are conditioned to be dismissive about vegetables so you kind of have to sneak up on them and surprise them…in ways they aren't anticipating." For a culture of eaters who grew up with meat as the star of the show and vegetables playing second fiddle, eating a veggie-forward meal can be a radical change.
