  • If you can't drink it - don't use it in cooking

  • When flambéing heat the alcohol in a metal ladle or small saucepan before setting it alight

  •  Add a splash of the original alcohol to soups, stews, sauces and casseroles just before serving to reinforce the flavour

  • Buy miniatures and keep in your store cupboard for use in the kitchen

  • When using alcohol in  milk or cream sauces burn off the alcohol before adding to the sauce to prevent curdling

  • Because alcohol freezes at a lower temperature to other liquids, excessive use in frozen desserts is not advisable
