Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    To make Bouquet Garni: Tie 4 springs parsley, 2 dried bay leaves and 1 teaspon dried thyme leaves in cheesecloth bag or place in tea ball.
  • tip 2
    Set up a fondue for dessert! Get out the chocolate chips and melt them in the fondue pot or microwave. Let everyone have their own custard cup of melted chocolate with lots of dunkers such as fresh fruit, pieces of cupcakes or cut-up angel food cake.
