This tip is not exactly for cooking but rather for ripening fruits when you end up buying them before they are actually ripe. Most fruits like mangoes can be ripened by placing them in the rice can overnight. In fact, for papaya if it is not ripe yet, you could just wrap it in newspaper for a day & there you are.

While preparing paneer(cottage cheese), do not dispose of the whey as it can be used for making soft chapatis instead of water. Refrigerate this whey and it can be used for preparing chapatis the next time. Hope this helps, Thanks!
