The post 3 Alcohol Myths You Shouldn’t Believe appeared first on foodisinthehouse.com.
]]>It May Improve Sleep
People tend to think that alcohol improves sleep because it can help us relax and make us sleepy. Even though a glass of wine can help you fall asleep faster sometimes, studies have shown that alcohol reduces sleep quality and can even cause insomnia.
Coffee Can Sober You Up
Most people think that drinking black coffee or caffeinated drinks can help them sober up quickly, which is simply not true. Coffee can help us feel more alert and boost our energy for a while, but that certainly doesn’t mean we’re sober.
Wine Gets Better With Age
This is one of the most common alcohol myths everyone knows and probably thinks it’s true. Certain types of wine will taste better if stored for years, but the truth is that most wines will actually lose quality over time.

]]>Better Digestion
When you take time to chew food, your stomach will have an easier job digesting so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that people who eat slowly have better digestion.
Lose Weight
Studies have shown that people who eat slower actually consume fewer calories, which is why this habit can be great for those who are trying to lose weight. That’s because our brain needs time to realize our stomach is full, so if we eat slowly we’re less likely to overeat.
Enjoy Your Food
Eating your meals more slowly is not just about boosting metabolism and improving health. Your favorite foods, like sweets or pizza, will definitely taste better if you take some time to really enjoy the flavor.
Less Stress
Rushing through a meal can be really stressful even if we don’t realize that. Practicing mindful eating and taking time to enjoy food is good for reducing stress and anxiety.

]]>Don’t Skimp on Ingredients
The best thing about pancakes is that you need only a few ingredients to make them, so don’t be tempted to use old eggs or flour. Using fresh, quality ingredients is the first step towards preparing perfect fluffy pancakes.
Overmixing the Batter
In case your pancakes always end up being rubbery and tough, it’s probably the result of overmixed batter. The trick to making fluffy pancakes is to mix the batter just until dry and wet ingredients are combined and then leave it to rest even if there are still some lumps left.
Flipping Too Often
Flipping your pancakes more than once will likely cause them to lose that beautiful fluffy texture, so try to avoid this mistake.
High Heat
The key to making perfect golden-brown pancakes is to cook them over medium heat. Setting the heat too high will cause your pancakes to burn before they’re cooked on the inside, so it’s important to pay attention to the heat while cooking.

Cooking with stale spices is actually a common mistake that can easily happen to anyone. But you want to be extra careful to use fresh spices when preparing chili because this is one of the most important ingredients for preparing this dish.
Using Water Instead Of Stock
Even though you technically can use water for preparing chili, this dish will have a richer taste if you actually cook it with chicken, beef, or vegetable stock.
Seasoning At The End
Fresh herbs and spices are key ingredients for preparing delicious chili at home and that’s why it’s important to learn how to properly season this dish. Adding spices and herbs at the end of cooking is a common mistake that can easily sabotage the final result.
Not Cooking Long Enough
This is one of those dishes that will taste better the longer you cook it so try not to make the mistake of undercooking it. Chili should be cooked for at least one hour, but you can use a pressure cooker if you’re short on time.
