What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

Got a lemon? The juice and zest is all you need to give salt a major upgrade! Lemon salt is perfect sprinkled onto grilled salmon, baked chicken, or tomato slices to give a vibrant finishing touch.

1/2 cup kosher salt
3 tablespoons finely grated lemon zest
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine the kosher salt, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a bowl and mix well. Spread the mixture evenly on the lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in a draft-free location and let the lemon salt dry for 1-2 hours.
Transfer the lemon salt to a non-reactive airtight container and use within 2-3 days.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
