Full Title: "The Best Kitchen Quick Tips: 534 Tricks, Techniques, and Shortcuts for the Curious Cook"

From the Publisher:

New from the editors of Cook’s Illustrated, The Best Kitchen Quick Tips contains ten years' worth of our favorite tricks, techniques, and shortcuts. Selected from the thousands of Quick Tips submitted by our readers since 1993, you'll find the simplest and most practical suggestions to save you time and money, as well as to improve your cooking results.
Inside, you'll learn the secret to preventing leaks from an ice cream cone (stuff the bottom with marshmallows), restarting a charcoal grill fire without matches or lighter fluid (use a hair dryer), and peeling a raw potato (hold with a corkscrew). You will also find creative tricks for cutting up tomatoes without making a mess, mincing onions quickly, fishing out cork pieces from a wine bottle, plus much more.

This 416-page book includes 534 Quick Tips-organized alphabetically with letter tabs for easy reference-and 750 illustrations, all which will help you become a faster, smarter, and better cook.
