howe_sam posted:His recommendation in the most recent episode that you leave your chicken out for two hours under a house fan to dry before roasting was some amazing bullshit. I mean I don't doubt that it removes any moisture from the skin, but who has time to do that? That is laughably dumb, but I've been spatchcocking chickens and turkeys for like 15 years because of that episode of good eats

Mu Zeta posted:He's one of the few to point out that the chicken wings are trash and overcooked. They should start cooking them fresh instead of buying it at a supermarket. This is one slow moving thread so I dont know if you'll see this, but I want to say sean said they get them at a neighborhood wing stop. I've never been there so I cant speak to the quality of the wings, but I'd have a hard time believing any wing would be palatable after being individually dressed during prep and whatnot. Rachel Ray did a pro move by just eating the sauces imo. Room temp gummy wings have to be so disgusting.

What's going on with Good Eats' schedule? It looks like they just popped back for a turkey episode after a couple months off, and then another month break before a latkes episode? They just doing one-off holiday stuff now?

On a whim i rewatched (maybe I never saw it when it aired originally?) Bourdain's No Reservations New York Christmas special on hulu. I got to learn about Catalan and Austrian Christmas traditions and watch Tony get shat on by the James Beard-winning kitchen crew at les halles. Goddamn, is there ever a great cameo from a longtime Bourdain punching bag, Samantha Brown. It was a weird, fun one off and now I'm bummed his kid is without her dad again over the holidays

How in the hell am I making (a little) more as an associate editor with less experience than Sohla? With her working in Manhattan to boot? That's hosed up. gently caress Conde Nast I do a little voice over work for my company and have used that to leverage for a raise. I cant imagine being on massively popular videos and seeing nothing from it.

T.C. posted:Can anyone explain the actual organizational structure of BA? It seems like everyone is an editor of something, so I'm really unclear which people are in actual positions of authority where they are shaping broad content direction. cant speak to BA specifically, but lots of entry level print journalism jobs start you as "_______ editor." I assume it is so they can say you're technically management to pay you a salary instead of hourly wages (in america). i oversee no one and I am a salaried employee with an editor title. thankfully, I am not expected to work more than 40 hours outside of one week a year when I have to travel internationally to cover a giant event. you can be a salaried employee (exempt from max hours worked/no overtime) and make less than $700/wk last I knew. if you say someone is management and give them a title like someone in management, you can abuse the poo poo out of them with no repercussions. that's my guess as to why everyone on camera is an editor of some stripe

i took a coworker out to lunch early on in our current employment. we have the same title, were hired the same day, and have similar responsibilities. he, saying he was left leaning, started asking about my boss vs his boss and whatnot. i asked what he was being paid and he froze. it took him 6 weeks of getting to know me to tell me what his salary was. it was the same as mine. americans are conditioned to "not talk about money" because "it's rude." it is the only time in my professional life I've learned what a coworker made compared to me

when i got to know a new hire who came on the same day as me with the same title (associate editor), i had to feel out what sort of politics he had before broaching the subject of pay. it took him 6 months until he was comfortable telling me what he was paid after I asked. we work for the same publisher, but different publications. turns out we are being paid the same salary, but he was so scared to tell me "$60,000" it took hours of feeling me out before he'd divulge it to me outside of the office during lunch. america is a hosed up place, and my mind was blown that i was being paid more than sohla with zero experience in the field I was writing about. now we make the same amount of money, except I dont have to live within commuting distance to goddamn Manhattan. the Boston region isnt terribly affordable, but it sure as poo poo isnt NYC. on an entirely different subject, mac and cheese for thanksgiving was never a thing for my new england family, but I'd absolutely consider making it next time I host. The modernist cuisine recipe is so drat easy and it'd complement the meal so well.

How Wonderful! posted:Unfortunately I don't know if this is true. When I was doing my like... "teaching how to teach" poo poo I read a statistic about how over half of college students claim not to have learned anything new about a different culture or gained understanding about cultures other than their own during their education. At first I thought this was unbelievable-- I went to a tiny liberal arts school with a majority white student body but I still learned a poo poo ton making friends from all over, taking seminars about literary traditions I wasn't familiar with, driving for hours with friends to check out kinds of cuisines that were new to me. And I work at a huge urban school with an enormous international student body, food from all over the world within walking distance, including on campus. I was curious, so I went looking. 53% of american respondents of a survey consider themselves foodies. Of course, that's self selecting and people might think tater tot casserole is adventurous eating. https://nypost.com/2019/05/28/heres-how-many-americans-consider-themselves-foodies/

DC Murderverse posted:Speaking of Padma, the season of Top Chef that just ended was really good all the way through. It was an All-Stars one so all of the chefs are the best of the best and the challenges are really cool stuff like making a kaiseki meal for Olympic athletes or traveling to restaurants on Jonathan Goldman's last Best of LA list and eating the food and making something inspired by them, and the finale took them to Italy to cook for people with like a bajillion Michelin stars. I honestly cant remember the last season of top chef I watched, but when this one came around I had both cable, a DVR, ample time thanks to covid, and a desire to give it another whirl. I have really enjoyed it so far. I havent watched the grand finale yet, but I've really enjoyed it. I think I'll keep watching. Padma owning people online reminded me that I used to love the show.
