instruction:
Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, generate a relevant question to the topic of the paragraph. The paragraph has the prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by the answer prefix 'A:'.
question:
CONTEXT: Anything susceptible to moisture will go stale if exposed to air long enough. Storage will only get you so far, depending on the temperature and humidity in the storage area. In a restaurant kitchen, I don't have to tell you that both are rather high.I'd suggest blanching them after cutting. You could basically cook them through then store them in a relatively air-tight container for a period of several days. When a customer orders chips you'd just drop the blanched chips in the deep fryer long enough to brown and crisp them. This is what essentially every restaurant outfit that serves chips and/or french fries does and it works well. Experiment with blanching temperatures and liquids to see what works best. <sep> Q: How do I store homemade potato chips? A: store them in a relatively air-tight container for a period of several days Q: Will they stay crunchy? A: Storage will only get you so far, depending on the temperature and humidity in the storage area Q: What other options do I have? I don't want to cook them 'to order' at my bar. A: I'd suggest blanching them after cutting
answer:
What is blanching?

question:
CONTEXT: First, remove some, but not all, of the end. Make sure to leave a little of the root intact, as this will make the next steps easier. Peel the onion and discard the peel.Stand your onion on one of the now-flat ends. Chop in half with your chef's knife.Lay a single half on the flat end. Working from root to cut end, make several cuts at dice width that cut almost to the root end, but leave a little bit still attached.Working perpendicular to your last set of cuts, make another set of cuts at dice width. This will leave you with cut pieces. When you get to the portion with the root, discard it.Repeat for your other onion half.During cooking, the layers should flake apart leaving dice sized pieces. <sep> Q: A definitive method of dicing an onion A: Lay a single half on the flat end. Working from root to cut end, make several cuts at dice width that cut almost to the root end, but leave a little bit still attached
answer:
Any unusual and clever methods you know of?

question:
CONTEXT: Mixing it with milk (or liquid in general) is probably just to remove clumps. It clumps easily, especially when things aren't perfectly airtight (probably more common in your grandmother's time), and mixing in a small amount of liquid is an easy way to make sure it all breaks up.I'm less sure about the alternating. It is pretty common to alternate wet and dry as a way of getting things evenly mixed and avoiding lumps, so it's possible it's a variation on that. The paste might be too thick to easily mix into the wet, but also wet enough that it'd tend to stay as a lump if you mix it straight into the dry, so alternating wet-dry-paste might get you more even mixing? But if you're able to mix the paste smoothly into the wet, it's completely fine to just do that. <sep> Q: Why should I pre-mix baking soda into 2 tsp of milk when making cookies? A: Mixing it with milk (or liquid in general) is probably just to remove clumps
answer:
Will it affect the taste of the cookies, or just the texture?
