Kitchen Myths

Kitchen Myths debunks common kitchen myths, and even cites the sources from whence the debunking came (nice!).  Here are some myths that I grew up with, thinking they were true.  Ah, so innocent I am.

• A box of baking soda in the fridge or freezer absorbs odors.
• When you add alcohol to a recipe it all evaporates during cooking so there is none in the final dish.
• If you put the pit in the bowl, guacamole won't turn brown.
