    Matt, I have a question. When I cook eggs and meat I make sure to replace the cooking utensil and spoon rest when the cooking is nearly done to avoid contamination with raw egg or meat germs. Do you think I am being over cautious?

    • @IWantToCook
      @IWantToCook 19 часов назад

      No, in fact I don’t think you can be overly cautious when dealing with raw meat. Those precautions can save you from a litany of ills. Good job! 👍

  • @shadowpulpfan1810
    @shadowpulpfan1810 День назад

    Fire safety hints. If you can safely turn off the fuel or heat, do that first. A small fire in a pot or pan can be smothered with a lid. Also, keep baking soda near a range top. It is another good way to stop a small fire before it gets out of control. One benefit with baking soda is a small fire starting in grease or oil outside of a pan you can put the fire out quickly and often without ruining the food. The key to this strategy is to pay close enough attention to catch a fire when it is tiny. If you can't save the food, grab the fire extinguisher and save that kitchen. Lastly, if you use vintage appliances, unplug them once you are finished using them. Some of them, like vintage toasters, can be fire hazards if left unattended. Very old sewing machines have a similar problem.

    Thighs are also very difficult to overcook. If you overcook a breast a little they turn into rubber. Thighs you can sort of do whatever you want to them within reason and they won't turn to rubber. How this feature normally manifests in my kitchen is I will throw a bunch of thighs in the oven all of varying sizes (placing my probe in the largest one) and they all come out great... For breasts I have to smash the larger ones with my meat hammer to get them to be about as thick as the smaller ones to not overcook the smaller ones.

    My southern born mother loved Magnalite, the shiny type (non-anodized I think). I am somewhat worried about the past thought that aluminum cookware was associated with Alzheimers and dementia. I think that has been well challenged if not debunked? Wondering if you have any info or thoughts about that specific to Magnalite?

    • @IWantToCook
      @IWantToCook День назад

      Hello! Magnalite is neat stuff. I have a few vintage pieces myself, a couple of very large anodized aluminum pots and pans, and a few of those shiny roasters. My wife thinks the roasters look like Airstream trailers, so they are more for decoration at this point, lol. As for safety, according to government findings, “aluminum pots and pans are not considered harmful.” (Link to findings at end.) That said, my personal preference is to not use uncoated aluminum because it can lead to off flavors, is harder to clean, and I simply have so many better pots and pans. Hope this helps.

    @postholedigger8726 2 дня назад

    Recently I have ben incorporating the use of tin lined copper cookware and have been pleased with the way it performs. Because copper distributes heat evenly throughout the pan, they are an excellent choice to prepare foods prone to burning due to hot spots. After a bit of trial and error I decided to use them as they were designed to be used; which is on a hot flat surface; not an open flame. The pans transfer heat from the flat hot surface, such as a griddle, faster and more evenly to the food than other pans. Scortching and burning food on the pan bottom when cooking ingredients with a high starch content can be essentially eleminated with tin lined copper pots and pans. The griddle temperature can be set to a correct cooking temperature with an inexpensive laser thremometer. Because the pans transfer heat so efficiently, the burner temperature never needs to be bumped up to compensate the overall cooking temperature. This means that food will actually cook faster at a lower burner setting due to the efficient heat distribution in the pan. As long as the griddle tempeature is set to a safe heat level, the temperature won't melt the tin lining, warp the pan or scorch the food. I found that this works only for tin lined copper pans. Stainless lined copper clad pans can be used essentially as any other stainless steel pan but do not transfer heat as efficiently and evenly. Stainless lined copper clad pans can be used on an open flame but also reintroduce the scortching and burning problems associated with an open flame.

    • @IWantToCook
      @IWantToCook 2 дня назад

      Yep, I bet since the white is runnier and less viscous than the yolk, it slipped out. I would make sure the pan is hot, then try pressing down on the ring when pouring the egg white and continuing to do so until the egg is set. Also coat the bottom of the ring in a bit of oil. Hope that provides better results!

    Gadget - definitely a corn cutter. It works best on lightly blanched corn. (In my opinion.) If there is pulp left in the kernels ends on the cob you might want to take the back side of a butter knife and push them out into a bowl. This is an old fashioned trick. In heirloom sweet corn varieties like bantam, this is where the best flavor is. cut corn + corn pulp + butter = simple creamed corn.
