If it's pastry then it's a pie.

stereobreadsticks posted:

I'm confused, if both bread and pastry are "cake" and a "sandwich" is food in bread but a "pie" is food in pastry, then aren't both of those latter categories essentially food in cake? I think we can simplify further.
Food in cake is not the same as cake. Things are still themselves even when combined, it's the combination itself that gets a new designation. If you put cheese in bread then neither the cheese nor the bread is a sandwich, it's both together that make a sandwich.

SymmetryrtemmyS posted:

A pie is cooked as a singular assemblage, rather than being assembled before eating. That is the fundamental difference between a cake and a sandwich. Thus, a pie is a cake, but a trifle is a sandwich.
This is heresy. It is the question of bread or pastry that determines whether a food item is a cake or a pie. A trifle has neither bread nor pastry and is therefore neither sandwich nor pie. It's a stew. :colbert:

But if you get instant pudding, you also need to factor in the cost of milk.

I'm pretty sure it's always cheaper to make pudding from scratch than to buy snack packs. A gallon of milk is what, $3ish? Less here, but only for the cheap stuff. Still, that'll do fine for pudding.

Use whatever loving pudding you want, but we better start consulting the mathematical formulas surrounding this. I mean, there are just so many variables. Cost of Living, location, current market valuations on the commodities involved, electricity costs, fuel surcharges, depreciation of your vehicle, delivery charges, the list is just endless. And without a proper algorithm to analise this data we will never figure out the cost/benefit analysis of a homemade tub of pudding vs store bought.

We may need to buy some time on a Cray.

Lets figure 24 gallons of milk. (normal tub capacity is about 42 gallons apparently).

INSTANT:
Assuming vanilla pudding mix, bought in bulk from Amazon you would need 14 of the bulk packs (24 packs per case, 2 cups milk per pack) which is $230 assuming prime shipping. 2 gallons of 2% is 3.50 around me, so $42 in milk, for a grand total of $272. A 350 watt mixer pulls 2.91 (we'll call it 3) Amps but that doesn't matter because electricity is in kilowatt hours, so ~ 1kw hour to embarrass yourself online. A kw-hour is like 15 cents at most.

Grand Total: $272.15.

SNACK PACKS:
3072 oz in 24 gallons, 13 oz per 4 pack of snack packs, 1.50 per snack pack, pack = $354.

Bulk Lemon pudding is about $420 (from amazon), but lemon pudding is gross.

e: I was way off on snack-pack costs.

I have always used cold water to stop the cooking process so the noodles do not get mushy. You can always reserve the cooking water to reintroduce those starches later.

I've seen people argue that the starches leeched by pasta without rinsing aren't of any major nutritional value and just add unnecessary calories to your meal, but I'm not sure if there's any truth in that.

The starchy buildup on the noodles after you drain them help adhere the sauce to the noodles.

I don't understand. Is it a temperature thing? Noodles are at an edible temperature pretty much immediately after they come out of the boiling water

I rinse my noodles because my mother always rinsed her noodles. I've heard many arguments for and against it. In my personal experience, they stick less if they were rinsed the next time I use them, because I usually make a pound, eat half with freshly made sauce the one day, and the other half with eggs and cheese fried in a pan the other day. Adding a little oil helps, too, I know. I've never noticed a taste difference. I also never noticed a difference depending on if noodles are kept in boiling water at all times, or in ~80°C water which still should be enough to cook them (and won't overboil). I think there is absolutely not difference to whatever you do with noodles, and there is no reason to get mad at anyone for preparing them differently. Hell, there usually isn't, but even less with noodles.

I only ever saw my asian friends rince pasta after cooking and I always figured it was because that's what you do with rice noodles to stop them overcooking because they do that very easily so that's just what they're used to. There is absolutely no need to rince pasta but hey, more power to you if you want to I guess.
