According to Martha Stewart the conversion of white flour to whole wheat is approximately 1 cup white to 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons whole-wheat.OK easy enough.
What about converting 1 and ¾ cups all-purpose flour to whole wheat?

“Whole-wheat flour produces denser baked goods than white, so you'll need to use less of it: 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons, instead of 1 cup of white flour. Breads made with whole wheat flour do not rise as high because the bran tears the elastic strands of gluten in the dough.”

Well, hey I'm only thirteen, but I suck at the frying pan, when half of my friends don't.


Ok, so you saw how horrendous i am at being in the kitchen,
But I want to become a near decent cook.
I'm talking Perfect Cupcakes, Pies, and Desserts.
Do i just keep practicing or what?
Don't insult how bad my pancakes look, or me.
i know I'm terrible, and bad looking, but i just need tips.

Hey guys I am cooking dinner and I have eggplant, zuccini and I am trying to figure out how to cook them and still keep the nutrients in. Boil or steam? Furthermore how do I season/dress them to make them taste good for someone who HATES vegetables. I also have fresh garlic and peppers (bell, green and sweet). Tell me what to do! :) Thanks so much!!

Should I add them at the start of cooking and fry in oil. Should I add them at the last minute? Does it help to let the sauce stand for a while?

I forgot to bring my crockpot with me when I moved! I have beef for stew, potatoes and carrots. Can I cook it on the stove or in the oven? I have some other ingredients around the house too if that will help. How long do I need to cook the meat? I have 2 hungry kids so nothing too complicated please :)Any suggestions or recipes are welcomed. Thanks!
