Kitchen hacks from food.com

Food.com has you covered with tip videos to keep food fresh and craft better sauces, soups and dressing. Find these tips and more at Food.com:

•Have old, hard lemons or limes leftover in the kitchen? Microwave them for 15 seconds and they will juice like new.

•To prevent onions from turning brown quickly, store them in pantyhose by placing them in each leg and tying a knot between every new onion. Hang them in a dark, dry place for up to six months. Snip off an onion as needed!

•Dried-out brown sugar can be softened by being microwaved for 10 seconds. To prevent crusty brown sugar in the future, store it with a marshmallow.

•Bring your old loaf of French bread back to life by sprinkling it with water, wrapping it in foil, and baking it for five minutes at 400 degrees.
