Useful tips

Add a pinch of salt when beating whole eggs: The salt will make the whites runnier and easier to mix with the yolks. Especially useful when using very fresh eggs. When making short crust pastry, a bit of lemon juice or a tiny amount of vinegar can prevent the pastry from shrinking. It also helps to make the crust crispier somehow. In cooking a tablespoon is not a serving implement but a precise measurement see. If it helps, think of a tablespoon as 3 teaspoons.
