all you need to do is wash them and place in a salad spinner and look atthe water that comes off the salad. You will always wash them after seeing the color of the water from this supposed “pre-washed” bag. Jfood...

to a successful dish using spaghetti squash is to make certain it is fully cooked and fully drained of all the liquid that it seems to collect out of thin air as it cooks. I prefer to precook it, then remove it from the shell and...

I thought it seemed fairly obvious that I do use a knife. And it can get messy. I wanted something maybe like those plastic salad spinners where you’d stick the head of lettuce in the bowl of it and when you spin it, a...
