CONTEXT: There are arguments of the universal validity of such rules, but there has long been an argument that reheated meat that was pre-cooked should always be brought to full safe temperature.The general idea is that cooked or not there is bacteria present. If heated to only the 100-120F range, you have reached the temperature of highest active growth of many pathogens, without killing them. Some will argue that this is safe, as long as you eat the item immediately, not let it sit and give time for that bacterial growth to bloom. I would even put credence to this for items which I knew the preparation and handling history, but for prefab type foods, like ground meats and especially poultry, I personally would be reluctant to take risks, I would bring it to temp. There also has always been disclaimers that the reheating to temp rule only applies to if you reheat at all, for instance, medium rare roast beef is often eaten cold as leftover, but the rule stated if you reheat, the reheat to what would have originally be considered a safe temperature, not part way. With something like a prepped burger, again, I personally would not eat it cold, and just thawing it might put you into an unknown zone. I would heat it.  <sep>  Q: How can I cook chicken burger? A: for prefab type foods, like ground meats and especially poultry, I personally would be reluctant to take risks, I would bring it to temp 
Output: What can i do to achieve certain internal temperature when it is stated on the label?
CONTEXT: The term is not really defined that way. In the strict sense, it only has meaning for lean doughs - made of only flour, water, yeast and salt, eventually preferments or later mixins like seeds. You can extend it to enriched doughs (those that have fat, milk, eggs, tomato juice, etc.) but then it is no longer sharply defined. Calculating the exact content of water (e.g. adding to the calculation 17 g of water for every 100 g of butter) are pretty useless, because the water bound in an emulsion or other kind of colloid doesn't behave the same way as free water when making a dough. So, a dough with 100 g water and 100 g butter will be extremely different from a dough with 117 g of water, and still pretty different from one with 117 g of water and 83 g of oil. So, there is no real formula any more to create an actual percentage. The concept still stays somewhat useful in this case, but you have to "play it by ear". When you are trying to judge how soft a given enriched dough will be, you can start by calculating all the liquid and fat ingredients as if they were "hydration", which gives you a rough guide to compare it to other doughs, and then you have to make it and gain a tactile understanding of how it actually behaves.  <sep>  Q: What counts as "hydration" when figuring Dough Hydration? A: The term is not really defined that way. In the strict sense, it only has meaning for lean doughs - made of only flour, water, yeast and salt  Q: do we count things like sour cream, butter, milk, eggs? A: the water bound in an emulsion or other kind of colloid doesn't behave the same way as free water when making a dough  Q: Do we count just water/liquid? A: for lean doughs 
Output: Does anything else factor in to the hydration of the dough?
CONTEXT: Transfer of heat. First you need a hot pan (sprinkle some drops of water on the pan, it should sizzle). Then you add a drop of oil and swirl it around. When the oil forms a striated pattern, it's hot. Then you put the meat in.The hot oil helps to transfer heat from the bottom of the pan to the meat. You only need a spoonful of oil.  <sep>  Q: Why do people put oil/butter in pan when frying ground beef? A: The hot oil helps to transfer heat from the bottom of the pan to the meat 
Output: Does it matter if it butter?

CONTEXT: My own sugar cookie recipe is quite dry as well. It cracks along the edges when pressed or rolled and is easily "broken".I've never experienced a problem with the dough being so dry it doesn't take to cookie cutters, but if your dough is literally falling apart you may want to just spritz (or in the absence of a kitchen water spray bottle, sprinkle with your finger tips) cold water on it. (Like adding water to pie dough) Give it one sprinkle/spritz and kneed it in. Repeat until it just stops breaking. Don't go overboard and make it gooey.I'd use water over oil or milk because it's the least likely to change the structure of your cookie in the baking process. Such minuscule amounts of water shouldn't yield a detectable change in the end product.If this is a consistent problem with the recipe, in the future I'd decrease the flour by a tablespoon or two and see if that helps.  <sep>  Q: I am not the best baker, how can I fix my dry crumbly cookie dough? A: My own sugar cookie recipe is quite dry as well. It cracks along the edges when pressed or rolled and is easily "broken  Q: yes as I roll it the dough is very dry, is there anything I can do to fix it? A: if your dough is literally falling apart you may want to just spritz (or in the absence of a kitchen water spray bottle, sprinkle with your finger tips) cold water on it 
Output: okay great, I do let it chill also, is there any length of time I should let it chill for?

CONTEXT: The ripening itself is caused by ethylene gas released by the food, which is trapped by any kind of bag.As far as I know, there's nothing inherently special about a brown paper bag, other than the fact that it's porous and thus still allows some air to get in and out. Plastic ziplock bags have no ventilation, so they don't work nearly as well.  <sep>  Q: Why does a brown paper bag speed ripening?

CONTEXT: From a cooking perspective any imitation sauce or marinade is never going to deliver the quality that venison has to deliver. We have a massive deer farm close and the price is still ridiculous .My suggestion is that you find a good butcher that will age beef for you on the bone ,or you could age it yourself if you have a climate control area to keep it at the correct temperature. Anything over 30 days on the bone will start to give you the gaming flavour you are craving. Nothing is going to match deer, but aged beef or really any type of cattle (eg buffalo etc) will give you the gaminess if it is aged. Restaurants are getting up to 180 days, which I could only imagine would melt in your mouth but the flavour would be intense.  <sep>  Q: How can I reproduce a "gamey" flavor? A: From a cooking perspective any imitation sauce or marinade is never going to deliver the quality that venison has to deliver 
Output: Are there any spices or "liquid smoke"-style flavor enhancers that could be comparable?

CONTEXT: According to a representative from a company that makes it, it's packaged with the words âmake your own almond bark". So "almond bark" (the coating) is a key ingredient in "almond bark" (the candy with almonds).

CONTEXT: In theory chakki is a flour mill, and chakki atta is flour fresh from that mill. Realistically of course nothing you find on your grocery store shelves is fresh from a mill.Atta flour is made from hard wheat, which has a high gluten content. This means that your flour is probably better for bread than typical all-purpose whole wheat flour from the baking aisle. If it is hard white wheat this might explain the color, as ground white wheat doesn't look that much darker than all-purpose flour. Like typical grocery store whole wheat flour, atta flour is coarsely ground. This may give your bread a more grainy texture (not a bad thing), and makes atta unideal for cakes, biscuits, and quick breads unless you like them with a coarse texture in the crumb. If you would like to use whole wheat for baking other than bread, whole wheat pastry flour is the usual suggestion (or grind wheat yourself to a very find grind).  <sep>  Q: How is packaged chakki atta different from whole wheat flour? A: In theory chakki is a flour mill, and chakki atta is flour fresh from that mill. Realistically of course nothing you find on your grocery store shelves is fresh from a mill  Q: what kinds of things it is good for?

A: If it is hard white wheat this might explain the color, as ground white wheat doesn't look that much darker than all-purpose flour 
Output: Why do they look so different?
CONTEXT: I thought that all electric fryers came with a mesh basket for the fries. If yours didn't, or if the mesh is coarse enough for the fries to fall through it, you could try to find another basket (I don't know if they are sold separately, but it is worth a try) or make some DIY solution by either suspending a big sieve in the fryer or lining the big-holed basket with fine steel mesh.  <sep>  Q: How do I prevent straw potatoes from sinking to the bottom of my electric fryer? A: try to find another basket  Q: I've used a mesh basket before, but the potatoes float right through the holes. Is there a way to stop this? A: you could try to find another basket (I don't know if they are sold separately, but it is worth a try 
Output: Would it be better to just fry only in a pan on the stove?
CONTEXT: Sure you can. It will not taste salty, but it also will not taste bland, it will have a "seasoned" taste. Will you like it that way, or miss the salt? That's not something we can predict (or you, for that matter, if you have not tried it before). You have to taste it so you can know if you personally enjoy eating saltless, umami food. When trying, make sure that you are using very small quantities. Measure in knifetips, not in teaspoons, add one at the time and stir well. You can easily overdo it, and there is no way to go back. Pay speciall attention to the feeling of "It's not good yet" - it can come from "not enough seasoning" or from "not enough salt", in the second case adding more MSG won't help.  <sep>  Q: Ran out of salt can I use MSG (monosodium glutamate) instead? A: Sure you can. It will not taste salty  Q: Should I add a bit more of MSG then, or will that mess up the food chemistry? A: When trying, make sure that you are using very small quantities. Measure in knifetips, not in teaspoons, add one at the time and stir well. You can easily overdo it

CONTEXT: Mold is growing because there's something for it to consume, the only way to prevent it from happening is to clean your grill more effectively, or carbonize it before the fire goes out. No grill is air-tight, so even though it gets a good heat blast (not enough to sterilize it as you may think), spores will get in from outside. Remember, hot air is less dense, so as the BBQ cools it will draw air in, hence the spores. Once there they thrive in the sheltered and often damp conditions in a closed-up barbecue. I think where you may be going wrong is that you close the valves after cooking. That cuts off the air and kills the fire. I leave all my valves open to keep it as hot as possible after I'm done cooking, and it does a better job of charring all the leftovers.  <sep>  Q: Curious mold growth in a sealled BBQ, how does one avoid it?

CONTEXT: The best way that I have found to cook okra, and prevent it from being slimy is to avoid cooking it with moisture.If you dredge it in seasoned cornmeal, then pan fry it, you get none of the slime that is common to okra.I haven't done any tests to verify if a quick fry would then prevent it from developing slime if you then add liquid, however.

CONTEXT: Ribs should not be cooked with direct heat, generally. The directions on the meat are VERY defective. You should turn the left burner on, and put the ribs in the right side of the grill. You should cook at a temperature between 250-300F, typically for 4-5 hours. They're done when the meat pulls back from the bone and when you can easily tear the meat between bones, not when they hit a certain temperature.

CONTEXT: Firstly - shop-bought "packet" bread will keep for several days because it contains a lot of preservatives.In his excellent book Bread Matters, Andrew Whitley claims that home-made sourdough breads with very long rises have better keeping properties than home-made bread made with baker's yeast and short rises. This, he claims, is because the sourdough yeast cultivates a culture of friendly bacteria and an acid environment, all of which become natural preservatives. My experience seems to confirm this.Bread recipes containing egg, oil or milk tend to keep for longer than those without.As @SAJ14SAJ says, bread freezes very well. Loss of flavour in the freezer is not a commonly recognised phenomenon.One option is to slice a loaf of bread, bag it and freeze it. Take as many slices as you need at a time. It will defrost very quickly at room temperature, due to its low mass and high surface area.Another option is to make rolls, part-bake, and freeze. When you need them, take as many rolls as you need from the freezer, and place in the oven, to both defrost and complete the baking. You will get fresh baking smells and flavours from this.I suspect that home-made unleavened breads (pita, chapati, tortilla), without added preservatives, will not last long out of the freezer. Their advantage is that with no rise, they are so quick to make that they can be made fresh on-demand.  <sep>  Q: What kind of homemade sandwich bread or wrap lasts longest?

It will defrost very quickly at room temperature, due to its low mass and high surface area.Another option is to make rolls, part-bake, and freeze. When you need them, take as many rolls as you need from the freezer, and place in the oven, to both defrost and complete the baking. You will get fresh baking smells and flavours from this.I suspect that home-made unleavened breads (pita, chapati, tortilla), without added preservatives, will not last long out of the freezer. Their advantage is that with no rise, they are so quick to make that they can be made fresh on-demand.  <sep>  Q: What kind of homemade sandwich bread or wrap lasts longest? A: Firstly - shop-bought "packet" bread will keep for several days because it contains a lot of preservatives  Q: But what lasts best that is homemade? A: In his excellent book Bread Matters, Andrew Whitley claims that home-made sourdough breads

CONTEXT: Generally speaking, frying gives a better crust due to the higher direct heat producing more Maillard flavours. A good, heavy, screaming hot pan is required. Oil the steak, not the pan, with vegetable or groundnut oil (olive oil will burn), and baste with butter towards the end for extra flavour.If your steak is thick, you might try a reverse sear - roast the steak at about 150Â°C until the centre is 10Â°C off your desired doneness level (if you don't have a digital probe thermometer, invest the small amount they cost, it is completely worth it), then sear the outside on your mega hot pan. This avoids you having to overdo the outside just to get the inside right.  <sep>  Q: Is it better to fry or grill a steak? A: Generally speaking, frying gives a better crust due to the higher direct heat producing more Maillard flavours 
Output: I have usually grilled so it is not cooking in the juices and I thought might be healthier?

CONTEXT: I can see this as being similar to a sweet potato pie. Best bet in that case would be to cook the carrots, then puree and mix with eggs, milk, etc. just as if it were a sweet potato or pumpkin pie.Two alternatives that come to mind would be to treat it like a fruit pie, as you say. Because of the texture of the carrots, I would grate them with the large holes on a box grater, toss with sugar, raisins, some tapioca and whatever spices your heart leads you toward.An alternative would be to make a molded gelatin like pie, similar to a refrigerator lime pie. Lots of gelatin and grated carrots. I, personally, wouldn't like it, but I am not fond of jello with carrots in it either.Happy experimenting.  <sep>  Q: I want to experiment with making a carrot pie, but should I make the filling a custard-style or a stew-style?

Output: Will the color stay bright orange?
CONTEXT: While adding sugar syrups like corn syrup or invert syrup to ganache is fairly common, it will change the texture of the ganache. You'd end up with something more like a chocolate coating. If bitterness specifically is the problem, I'd suggest using a less bitter chocolate. Perhaps you can find something with lower cocoa solids that will have a smoother flavor without adding any sweeteners.Added from a comment since I remembered: A tiny amount of salt can also help to cover bitterness. You could try that.  <sep>  Q: How to sweeten ganache for a chocolate lining A: If bitterness specifically is the problem, I'd suggest using a less bitter chocolate  Q: Will adding sugar make it grainy?

CONTEXT: Oversalting is best dealt with by serious dilution. I'd make a large, not very meaty dish from it, with lots of vegetables, cooked for a while. Fry onions and other veg, add liquid, and stir in the cooked beef. But soaking the meat should help as well. Either soak in plain water and discard the water, or soak in something you might add to the sauce (wine, beer, diluted citrus juice... ). I'd also cut it small before soaking/cooking. Most of the salt will be on the surface but you want to expose add much as possible of the meat to the liquid. Soaking should be done in the fridge, for a few hours.You could go for a tomato-based sauce, a curry using coconut milk, or a sticky orange and chilli sauce, so long as the ratio of beef to everything else (and beef to initial liquid) is small. The initial liquid shouldn't bring any more salt with it, which rules out most cmmercial stock preparations, and possbile home-made stock. These are just ideas, many beef in sauce dishes would adapt. I wouldn't add more meat, but many people would.  <sep>  Q: What can be done with accidentaly oversalted beef? A: Oversalting is best dealt with by serious dilution  Q: How would I dilute it?

CONTEXT: I love capers and add them to different foods when I think it suits it. I'd much rather eat tartar (not tarter) sauce with capers than pickles in it. But them I'm not a fan of tartar sauce (maybe because of the pickles). If you add capers, rinse them first to remove excess salt, pat water off between a paper towel and chop finely. I think a tiny bit of finely grated raw garlic would suit it nicely. Let the flavours meld together in the fridge for a few hours too.  <sep>  Q: Are capers a substitute for pickles in a tartar sauce? A: I'd much rather eat tartar (not tarter) sauce with capers than pickles in it 
Output: Is it true that the pickles gives an after taste?
CONTEXT: It sounds very much like you didn't manage to completely dissolve the sugar. It's also possible to get a bad texture from ice crystals in your ice cream, but I don't think you'd describe it as gritty or sandy, just icy.It can be rather difficult to dissolve that much sugar in liquid, especially if it's cold straight from the fridge. You might want to try heating it gently and stirring, and being careful to go until there's no undissolved sugar hiding at the bottom. That does make the chilling take a bit longer, probably more like 4-8 hours or overnight, not just 1-2 hours. But in my experience heating to dissolve is pretty much standard in ice cream recipes, presumably because it's about the only way to do it easily.  <sep>  Q: My homemade ice cream texture is gritty/sandy, any advice?

CONTEXT: If it's refrigerated, it'll last for at least a week, as long as you didn't pre-dairy it. Unrefrigerated, I wouldn't trust it for more than a day. Coffee is a crappy growth medium and it should start out the next best thing to sterile, but, even covered, its going to start to get moldy.Obviously if you add dairy, then you're dealing with that dairy shelf-life, and that isn't very long at all.  <sep>  Q: How long is it safe to drink coffee after brewed?

CONTEXT: With chicken and turkey, the most important "trick" to cooking it is to make sure the dark meat gets done before the white meat dries out, and to make sure the skin crisps up somewhat.Duck is all dark meat, and has a thick layer of fat that must be rendered out. There is not a lot of danger in drying out the breast meat like with a chicken.Like Martha said, it's best to make a few shallow cuts in the skin over the breast (don't go all the way through to the meat) to help the fat render out. A simple (western) roasted bird would be cooked at 350Â°F for about 1 hour 45 min, with the oven turned up to 500Â°F for another 15 minutes to crisp up the skin. There is a LOT of fat rendered out, so it's best to roast in a sturdy roasting pan, on a rack (so it doesn't sit in the fat), and drain the fat about an hour into cooking (save the fat, though; it's delicious).Personally, I think duck is easier to cook, but it's definitely different from roasting a chicken.  <sep>  Q: Differences between cooking a whole duck vs chicken or turkey? A: With chicken and turkey, the most important "trick" to cooking it is to make sure the dark meat gets done before the white meat dries out, and to make sure the skin crisps up somewhat

CONTEXT: The trick that works for me consistently is to put the beets in a sealed container while still hot and let them cool down that way, they continue to cook a bit and the steam from them keeps the skins loose. Also, peel them while they are still warm, if they cool too much the skins may adhere again.  <sep>  Q: Whats the best way to roast beets to get the skins off? A: The trick that works for me consistently is to put the beets in a sealed container while still hot and let them cool down that way  Q: The skins on mine always come out clingy, does this help with that? A: peel them while they are still warm, if they cool too much the skins may adhere again  Q: Another other advice for getting the skins to come off easily? A: put the beets in a sealed container while still hot and let them cool down that way  Q: So I should not let them cool down at all before peeling? A: peel them while they are still warm 
Output: How long should i let them cool before peeling?
CONTEXT: I recently found a different sauce that had a similar butterscotch note to it. It turned out this one was a very simple pan sauce built with brandy and beef stock as a deglazing liquid which was allowed to reduce by about 2/3 and then it was finished with a hint of cream.The fond came from a steak cooked in butter so there was probably a little browned butter in there as well.At this point I think the reduced brandy is a big contributor to the flavor I was identifying as butterscotch. This makes sense as brandy is generally somewhat sweet and usually has fairly strong caramel notes.  <sep>  Q: How should I develop a butterscotch flavor in a savory sauce? A: I think the reduced brandy is a big contributor to the flavor  Q: What ingredients can be used to develop these flavors?
