Democratic Pirate posted:Is a thermapen worth the cost jump from the thermopop? I use a thermapen all day every day at work and would hate to wait to get temperatures. That said, I keep having to RMA their very newest model. I bought 7 for my employees and we've sent back 4 of them so far. There's something wrong with the sleep trigger. The older models are fine and cheaper. Also if you're only taking temps once or twice a day a thermopop is fine. I bought a thermapen for home use because I can't go back to the waiting.

When baking they say "remove the toothpick and if it's clean you're done." Does "wet but unblemished" count as clean? Should it be dry?

You are checking for the stickyness, when nothing clings to a wood tooth pick, it's done. Before that, too wet.

I tend to cook 90% of everything in my non-sticks and only bust out my stainless steel or cast iron for steaks or crisping up prosciutto. Am I basically wasting chances for more flavor by missing the chance to form a fond? Basically I guess I'm asking for someone to convince me to spend much more of my time cleaning my stainless steel pan.

Am I basically wasting chances for more flavor by missing the chance to form a fond? Cook in whatever you like cooking in. My one caveat is that if your nonstick is 20 years old and peeling teflon into your food, you probably need to get new nonstick pans. But if they're the modern ceramic-coated stuff, then you're good to go. What cast iron/steel gives you is versatility in method of cooking, not inherently adding "more flavor." A cast iron pan can go from the stovetop, to the grill, to the oven without any care. You can use it to sauté squash, bake cornbread, sear a steak, etc etc. A steel wok is better than a non-stick wok, because that's the key to stir frying - being able to move things up onto the edges of the wok to take some ingredients out of direct heat while others are down in the high-temp and oil. But if anyone tells you that they'd rather scramble eggs in cast iron than non-stick, they're either lying to you or themselves.

Ever since I got a set of all clad anodized pans cheap af from TJ maxx, my cast iron has been relegated to pan pizza and searing something hard.

There's plenty of durable non stick options out there. Teflon hasn't been cutting edge for like 20 years now.

If there's anything keeping my nonstick pan relevant it's eggs. I use a ceramic nonstick pan. Works like a charm.

Whenever I cut up chicken for a bbq etc, I generally rinse the meat, then let it soak in water for like 20 minutes before cutting and marinading it. Some vague idea about soaking up moisture before the cooking process expels it. Not a single recipe ever recommends doing this, so I'd just like to know whether that's just waste of time or something that's subtly ruining the taste of the meat / is literally going to kill me at some point?
|
# ? Sep 19, 2019 13:25 |
rinsing meat is pretty dumb. soaking in salt water is pretty smart. You may want to do it for more then 20 mins. /e- rinsing was practiced back in the ol' boomer times for meat that was near off and a bit slimy. They cooked everything to oblivion so that's why it "worked" iirc

Submarine Sandpaper posted:soaking in salt water is pretty smart. You may want to do it for more then 20 mins. OP didn't say anything about salt in the water. But yeah, pork and chicken benefit from brining for an hour or two prior to cooking, especially due to how lean they are these days.

Take the water out of the equation and just rest in salt for a while and you'll get even better results.

Rinsing your chicken just sprays whatever pathogens are on it’s surface into your sink and onto the nearby countertop. It actually might kill you (more likely someone young, old, or immunocompromised).

What is black garlic for? We were given some as a gift but I don't really get it. It's a pain in the arse to chop and has such a mild flavour I can't think of anything that would allow it to come through. Almost tempted to just eat the cloves as garlic sweets.

It's basically like garlic candy. I use it sort of like I use a roasted garlic, often puree'd with a little olive oil, honey and some other herbs then used as a spread for cheese and crackers. 1 bulb of black garlic, peeled 1 tsp olive oil (plus a little more if needed) 1 tsp honey 1 tsp Herbs d' Province Just puree all that together, spread it on a cracker or crusty bread with some good cheese and enjoy.

I used to saute it with mushroom ravioli because I thought the earthy flavors would complement each other but it was just OK and I guess what I'm trying to say is I don't know either

Anyone here an owner of a Kenwood Major Titanium KM020? I am wondering if you have one, does the top or the "head" lock up solidly when you push it down to start kneading dough? Or can it move up and down a little bit? I've always wondered if this was by design or if there was something wrong with the latch on mine. My mom has a kenwood from the 1970s and it locks up solidly IIRC. Had it for nearly 10 years now...

Is there a reason to go with raw cast iron cookware over enameled? I do get that naked iron is a lot more but enameled seems a lot easier to clean.

If you plan to use it for camping or baking, sure. If not then nonstick is fine.

If you want to use metal tools - metal spatulas, whisks, tongs, etc then go with raw cast iron. Enameled is really nice and cleans easy UNTIL it gets scratched. Then it can flake or pit. If you take good care of enameled cast iron, then it is wonderful - I love mine. But never, never, never use metal cooking tools with them and never use steel wool to clean them.

you can definitely use metal tools on enameled cookware just be gentle

For wings I like blue cheese dressing. This recipe here is no-frills and pretty good. Most people like it chunky but I like to hit it with the hand blender to get the blue cheese in every bite. 3/4 c.......sour cream 1 1/3 c....mayo 1 t............Worcestershire 1/2 t........mustard powder 1/2 t........ground black pepper 1/2 t........garlic powder 1/2 t........kosher salt 4 oz.........blue cheese crumbles
