CONTEXT: Yes, you should store them in a air-tight jar, and the best is to store the jar in a cool place in the house. The fridge is to moist for storing cupcakes. You can store them in the jar for about 3-4 days, but they won't taste fresh any more. So I would suggest if you want to store them longer then 1 or maybe 2 days, freeze them right after they cooled down from baking. If you use a topping, you can top your cupcakes when they are thawed.  <sep>  Q: Do you have any advice on how best to store cupcakes? A: you should store them in a air-tight jar  Q: Would that be in the fridge or at room temp? A: store the jar in a cool place in the house. The fridge is to moist for storing cupcakes  Q: How long do you think they'd stay fresh if I follow your advice?

Output: No
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 the pan when frying ground beef? A: The hot oil helps to transfer heat from the bottom of the pan to the meat  Q: Isn't there already enough grease in ground meat? A: nly need a spoonful of oil  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Why add oil if you end up draining the meat anyway?
Output: No
CONTEXT: I have seen this happening more than once. While I don't know the whole theory behind it, each time it happened, there was something just below the hole, let's call it "the lump". What I think happens is that the lump is too heavy. When the batter below it tries to rise, it doesn't have the strength to push up the lump. This could be combined with differences in heat transfer throughout the batter vs. on the batter-lump transition in preventing rising (I am certain they exist, but I don't know whether they have an effect at all). The result is a hole where the batter didn't rise, surrounded by nicely risen batter. As to where the lump comes from: you say "chocolate and pear cake". If you have pear pieces in the batter, right under the surface, they can do this. I have certainly seen it happen when the recipe includes fruit pieces in the batter. If there are no pear pieces, my second guess is badly dissolved flour. The directions for this type of cake normally include folding the whites very gently, and generally erring on the side of too little whisking. This could contribute to uneven batter texture, resulting in lumps. In the second case, the cake may have some less-than-pleasant pieces, but will still be mostly good. If it is fruit, the holes are purely a cosmetic problem. So not much harm done either way, unless you are shooting for a prize at a baking competition.  <sep>  Q: I baked a chocolate and pear cake whose batter is made with yolks, sugar, butter, melted chocolate and amaretti, flour and baking powder and whisked whites. It was (not very evenly) divided in two layers, sandwiching a layer of pear pieces pre-cooked in rum.### My question is: what are the holes due to? A: I have seen this happening more than once. While I don't know the whole theory behind it, each time it happened, there was something just below the hole, let's call it "the lump  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Uneven division of batter?

CONTEXT: I'm afraid you interpret the tables wrong. You aren't destroying calories, you are adding water (=0 cal) to the dry rice. As the rice absorbs the water, you are in fact measuring rice + water for cooked rice.This is true for calorie tables that measure by volume (like here) and by weight.If you are cooking your rice by boiling and straining, you are effectively losing a few calories due to the starch that gets drained with the water, but that's not what you asked here.  <sep>  Q: How to maintain the calories in rice (which were present in it in its raw form) after cooking it? A: You aren't destroying calories, you are adding water (=0 cal) to the dry rice  Q: So to maintain the same calories I just don't drain the water? A: the rice absorbs the water  Q: How much raw rice is equal to 1 cup cooked rice? A: As the rice absorbs the water, you are in fact measuring rice + water for cooked rice  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Is it safe to eat uncooked rice ?
Output: No
CONTEXT: In my experience, rice can be cooked in any pot. I cook quite a lot of Japanese style dishes, and as far as I can tell the rice is cooked in the same way as any other.For myself, I've done it in good "induction-able" steel pots, as well as huge (navy galley) aluminium pots, and a couple of low-quality stainless steel things too. They're all fine.Normally, as soon as the pot is at/near boiling, turn the heat down to a low setting and leave it in the pot until it's ready. Then take it off the heat, but leave it covered (don't peek) for another five minutes.Generally, once you've added the water, you put the lid on. You only start the timer when it's boiled and you turn it down, though. That's probably why a glass lid is better, so you can see the boiling. It's not critical to the process, though.  <sep>  Q: Do I need a specific pot to cook Japanese-style rice?
Output: Yes
CONTEXT: I usually don't buy crumbled tofu, but since you have that, I would suggest making tofu burgers. Add another hearty ingredient, like lightly roasted finely chopped walnuts, or baked eggplant cubes. Combine with chopped onions, garlic, grated carrots, and breadcrumbs. Bind with beaten egg. Season with your choice of herbs or spices, such as thyme, oregano, basil. Form into patties, fry lightly in olive oil and sprinkle with tamari (or soy sauce) until both sides are browned. Bake until fully cooked in the oven at 375 degrees. Serve on a bun just like a beef patty.  <sep>  Q: What can I do with excess tofu?
Output: Yes
CONTEXT: For a few months I would really not worry too much about your storage, half a year at 80F is not going to destroy your wine. If you have the space in your fridge then that is a better option, but I doubt even the most dedicated wine snob would be able to tell much of a difference. Humidity only matters if you have wine with traditional corks as low humidity will dry them out and spoil the wine, if you are buying twist caps and synthetic corks then humidity is not a consideration. A few months in low humidity should not result in cork drying, but year will. Vibration used to be a problem with older fridges, most newer fridges are pretty quiet and low vibration so I wouldn't worry there, especially for shorter term storage. Colder temperatures for storage will not cause a noticeable effect on wine's flavor over a few months, you'll want to let it warm up some for the best flavor though. Storing an opened bottle of wine in the fridge is a good idea in fact, as it will keep it drinkable longer. So unless you are buying expensive wine to keep for a long time you should be fine no matter which option you choose.  <sep>  Q: How important are each of temperature, humidity, and vibration for storing wine? A: ont  Q: I need to know which of these actually matter for a casual wine drinker like myself? A: half a year at 80F is n  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What do you mean by traditional corks?

CONTEXT: Ripening of the avocado is slowed down greatly by refrigeration, so it is usually a good idea to let the avocado ripen fully at room temperature. Once it is ripe, it can be stored in the refrigerator for at least a week. This way, it is ready to use whenever you want it. Fortunately, there is a day or two when the avocado is ripe, but not too ripe, so if you check on it everyday when ripening, you will be able to save it at the correct ripeness without worrying about it too much.Putting an unripened avocado in the refrigerator may prevent it from ever ripening completely. Once cooled to near freezing (40F in most refrigerators), it seems that some avocados (maybe it depends on the type) don't ripen anymore, even when removed to room temperature.  <sep>  Q: Will avocado stay fresh longer if stored in the refrigerator? A: Ripening of the avocado is slowed down greatly by refrigeration  Q: Are there any drawbacks with refrigeration?

CONTEXT: It is not simply a matter of strong versus weak. Rather, different qualities are extracted from the coffee over different parts of the brewing process. The most volatile components are extracted early in the brew, and the less volatile components come out over the length of the brew.So the distribution of flavors varies over the brew. Total brew time is carefully calibrated in quality coffee makers to extract the most desirable flavors possible, and minimize the least desirable.By taking some out early, you are guaranteed a bad first cup, and are consigning the remainder of the pot to be less than it could be.For best quality, you should wait for the entire brew, so that the flavors are balanced from the entire brew time.  <sep>  Q: Which part of the coffee brew is best? A: For best quality, you should wait for the entire brew, so that the flavors are balanced from the entire brew time  Q: Is the coffee that is first dispensed from the machine the same quality as the coffee which is dispensed in the middle or end of the process? A: By taking some out early, you are guaranteed a bad first cup, and are consigning the remainder of the pot to be less than it could be  Q: Would the first cup be too strong? A: For best quality, you should wait for the entire brew  Q: Sometimes at work, I don't feel like waiting for 10 cups to brew, is that a problem?

CONTEXT: The feeding/maintenance of your starter is the same regardless of flour. Remove and discard (or use elsewhere) half or more of starter. Add fresh flour and water in the desired proportions. Stir. As your starter matures, it becomes acidic. Too much acidity interferes with yeast activity in the bread making process. That is why you need to remove a portion of the "spent" starter each time you feed.  <sep>  Q: How do I feed a sour culture?

CONTEXT: Advance warning: I haven't tried this.It seems that you don't want to remove the ovaries because that would affect the shape, but you do want to remove the capsaicin from them. It's soluble in fat and alcohol, so you could try making a small hole in the bottom and pumping a light vegetable oil or vodka through from the other end using a syringe. Obviously you're likely to end up with some solvent trapped inside, and you might also wash away some of the flavours you're trying to preserve, so experimentation would be necessary.  <sep>  Q: How can I make fresh chili peppers less hot?

CONTEXT: There could be two factors involved. First, the freshness of the celery. Restaurants, especially those that serve large amounts, are going through a lot of product. This means that you are more likely to get really fresh celery.Next, storing in water is very likely an issue. I would suggest buying celery within a day or so of when you plan to use it. Wash and dry it thoroughly. Then trim and cut to your desired size. Then immediately place the celery in a plastic container or zipper bag and place in the refigerator until serving.Each time you take it out for serving, remove the amount you plan to use and return the rest to the refrigerator. The 'leftover' celery should remain fresh and crisp for several days.  <sep>  Q: Why does raw celery from a restaurant taste different than raw celery at home?###Say you go to a restaurant and order buffalo wings. The wings come with celery and bleu cheese. The celery tastes amazing. A: There could be two factors involved.

CONTEXT: Adding salt and lemon should do it, or at least help a lot.What you want to do is to chop them up and rub in a little salt and a splash of lemon juice (vinegar should work too). Obviously you don't want to add so much of either that you won't want to eat the onion.Leave to sit in the fridge overnight and enjoy.  <sep>  Q: How to make uncooked onion digestable?

CONTEXT: Most of the things in this are very easy to substitute.Roses lime juice is sweet and non-alcoholic (and can be found in most supermarkets). You can easily sub in heavy cream for Baileys: they don't taste the same, but chemically they react about the same. Grenadine is just a pomegranate juice simple syrup. No alcohol there at all.The only question is what you want to sub for the strawberry vodka. Some kind of soda, most likely. It's a question of taste. It won't be easy to get something that is both fruity and clear, but you might try white cranberry juice, or white grape juice.  <sep>  Q: How can I make the "Bloody Brain" cocktail without alcohol?
Output: Yes
CONTEXT: Flour (+ water, either directly or from other ingredients such as egg white) gives the pastry structure. As you knead the flour, the gluten network develops and results in elasticity. When cooked, water evaporates from the dough leaving a rigid gluten skeleton. Fat does not mix with water and thus stay in blobs in between the gluten network. This weakens the gluten structure, making the pastry crumble.For this reason, you often see in recipes for shortcrust to avoid overmixing the fat. Buttery biscuits such as shortbread crumble more than crackers, which have more water. The same rationale applies to puff pastry. The thin fat layers are impermeable, so water steam gets trapped and exercise pressure upwards, lifting the pastry up.Quoting @GdD in the comments, the punchline is:more fat = crumblier, less fat has more structure.  <sep>  Q: How does altering the fat-to-flour ratio affect the pastry? A: more fat = crumblier, less fat has more structure  Q: Is it only crumblier after it bakes? A: The thin fat layers are impermeable, so water steam gets trapped and exercise pressure upwards, lifting the pastry up  Q: Does the type of flour effect the mixture? A: Flour (+ water, either directly or from other ingredients such as egg white) gives the pastry structure. As you knead the flour, the gluten network develops and results in elasticity  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Can you knead the dough too much?
Output: Yes
CONTEXT: 'Paella rice' is not actually a variety of rice, but a category suitable, as the its name suggests, for making paella. Some common varieties are: Bahia, Balilla, Bomba, Senia, and Calasparra; the particular variety should be indicated on the packet that you choose.These varieties differ from risotto rices, such as arborio and carnaroli, in not creating a creamy 'sauce' around the rice. Paella rice should stick together, but be distinct and not in a creamy 'sauce'.Arborio rice has a creamy, chewy texture due to its higher amylopectin (one of two components in its starch) content. Paella rice absorbs more liquid than risotto rices, however it too would become 'creamy' if you stirred it like a risotto, since it also has a high starch content.  <sep>  Q: What is the difference between risotto rice and paella rice?
Output: No
CONTEXT: There are many variables here that may or may not caused OP's problem.The Pan sounds as it might not have been hot enough. How hot was quite hot, how long could you hover your hand above the pan? Did you notice any change to the oil once you added it to the pan, did it streak, did it start to smoke?[Personally I tend to oil the meat before placing into the pan.]I think the main flaw is the frying for a minute on each side, at the temperature you had, that cooking time was too low. Maybe 2-4 minutes on each side. A medium should have a lot more heat penetrate the edges and allow that heat to transfer and cook the steak off the heat.That's an acceptable blue/rare steak though.  <sep>  Q: What happened to my steak? A: re ar  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: I have trouble cooking a steak medium, do you have any tips?

CONTEXT: I'm sorry to say this, but I think prevention is the best answer. Once you're vegetables freeze things happen at the cellular level that changes the nature of the vegetables. For example, ice crystals pierce cell walls which destroys some of the structure, which is responsible for the crispness and crunch of the vegetable. I don't think there is really a way to "fix" this, once it happens.That said, cooking does something similar to vegetables. Cooking destroys cell walls, which is why cooked carrots are so much softer than raw carrots. I would think that vegetables that stand up to cooking would survive freezing the best (such as your mushrooms). On the other hand, somthing like lettuce is a lost cause, once frozen.  <sep>  Q: Can you help me with recovering frozen vegetables from my crisper? A: I don't think there is really a way to "fix" this, once it happens  Q: Is there any way to salvage them for cooking?

CONTEXT: It really comes down to taste. In this usage, you're treating sauerkraut like a condiment so there's not really a "correct" answer.. A lot of hot dog places have traditions - for instance, Nathan's Famous hot dogs (the original "Coney Island" hot dog) uses these combinations with kraut:-Sauerkraut, spicey brown mustard (New York style)-Thousand island dressing, sauerkraut, swiss cheese (Reuben style)A famous hot dog maker in Pennsylvania, Yocco's Famous Dogs, uses sauerkraut and a thin bean chili combination to make their hot dogs.The sauerkraut will often be very strong tasting, but not as "funky" as kimchi. It pairs well with a lot of different foods, usually other strong flavors (either strong tart like the spicey mustard, or strong sweet like the thousand island dressing or sweet relish).Personally, I just eat sauerkraut with a fork. But if I have it on a dog, I pile it on with dill relish, country style dijon mustard, a dash of sriracha, and some diced onion. I recommend not kissing anyone for awhile after eating.  <sep>  Q: Do you have any tips on making Sauerkraut?
Output: Yes
CONTEXT: I would keep the one that you are eating the next day out. I would then freeze the rest of them. If you like them warm, you could freeze them wrapped in foil. Before eating pop them in a toaster oven until gently warmed through. If not I'd freeze individually until solid then put in a bag to prevent your frozen bagels from sticking together, then thaw overnight (if eating in the morning) or in the morning (if eating for a mid-day meal) to eat.  <sep>  Q: I make six bagles at a time to eat during the week; what is the best way to store them? A: I would keep the one that you are eating the next day out. I would then freeze the rest of them  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What will maintain the best quality overall?

CONTEXT: Sure you can bake crushed peppermint candy into cake. If you're talking about candy cane type candy, you can just crush it and add it to the batter, you wouldn't have to make changes to the recipe at all except the addition. It won't affect the way the cake bakes. The very edges of crushed candy might meld into the cake a bit, but I would expect that effect to actually be pretty nice. The sharp edges would be just a bit softened. Whether it maintains it's own character would mostly depend upon the size of the pieces. Powder might dissolve, but distinct pieces (like .3-.5 centimeter or so) would stay distinct.  <sep>  Q: How do I add crushed peppermint to a cupcake to bake? I'm fairly new at baking this.

CONTEXT: White chocolate does not have starch, so it does not thicken the ganache, unlike dark chocolate. The proper proportion for white chocolate ganache is 45 to 60 ml of cream to 12 ounces of chocolate. You used 240 ml, which made it too runny.

CONTEXT: Short answer: No.Long answer: this could probably be made to work, but only for a short time. At some point, and probably within a few uses, the rapid heat cycling from the fire would cause the pizza stone to crack.Pizza stones are made from corderite or clay, sometimes with grog. This offers a smoother surface than firebrick, but that smooth surface is because of a higher amount of vitrification and less airspace in the ceramic. This means they are less resistant to cracking due thermal shock, and the fact that your pizza stone is 1/4 a thick as firebrick makes that worse.In contrast, firebrick is a standard 2.5" thick, and made from higher-temperature materials with more airspace in the clay itself. These properties give it both higher thermal insulation, and higher thermal mass (so that it cools down slower). Both of these properties help it resist cracking.  <sep>  Q: Pizza stone as floor pizza oven vs firebrick A: This offers a smoother surface than firebrick  Q: Does it get as hot as firebrick?

CONTEXT: Unless you're straining the soup, I'd assume that the whole vs. cracked isn't going to be helpful in removing them, although I will admit that I can't recall seeing a recipe that called for whole peppercorns that didn't require cracking them.Part of the reason for whole pepercorns is the surface area -- if you crack it, you'll create more surface area, and for the same amount of pepper, there'd be more pepper flavor.It's also possible that there's a difference between the chemicals available in the outer hull of the peppercorn vs. the middle, but I don't know how you'd compare, simply because the cracked pepper would be more overpowering.  <sep>  Q: Why whole peppercorns in recipes?
Output: Yes
CONTEXT: Modern non-stick pans should not have problems with coatings flaking off. Spend $50 on a non-stick pan and it will last you for a very long time.

CONTEXT: I'm not sure about the texture (looseness), especially since those are two different methods. My best guess would be that it's just a flour measurement thing - moisture content in flour can vary, so the best thing to do is look for hints in the recipe about the desired texture (like "It should tear slightly as it falls from the beater"), and increase or decrease the flour to match.The primary flavors here are salt and chicken, so first just check the amount of salt in both dumplings and broth. For the chicken, you're getting all the flavor out of it by making broth. So make sure you used enough chicken (and not too much water), and that you cooked it long enough. Those recipes use a pressure cooker - if you don't have one, it takes way longer to cook, of course.  <sep>  Q: Looking for Chicken & Dumplings pointers A: The primary flavors here are salt and chicken  Q: Do you know a way of preparing it to make it less bland and loose?

CONTEXT: It really depends on your audience and setting. With a Filipino Lechon, it's served communally and eaten as pulled pork, so it's expected that you'll just plunk it down on a side table, and people will crack through the crisp, almost hard, skin and pull servings for themselves with tongs or forks. And they'll go for the whole thing, skin, ears, jowls and all (most people I know don't eat the ears, but they may crunch the crispy skin off them).A similar thing is done with a country-style hog roast. Those may be skinned before serving, but generally you're responsible for pulling or slicing what you want right off the hog (and usually throwing it on a cheapo burger bun). In both of these settings there are almost always some people who don't want to dig right into the pig out of squeamishness or out of fear of getting some part that's not nice to eat. The good host will periodically pull some of the good stuff onto a platter for those folks.If you're doing something more formal, I guess you'd want to section it like Foodrules suggests.  <sep>  Q: How do I serve a whole pig?

CONTEXT: Restaurants quite often cook pigs cheeks 'sous vide', but unless you have, or fancy investing in a water bath, you can do things the old fashioned way.How you prepare the cheeks for cooking will, to some extent, depend on which part you're cooking. If you're going to cook the whole cheek, you really should think about soaking in a brine of sugar, salt, vinegar and spices for 24 to 48 hours. If you're just cooking the 'pad' that part can be skipped.The thing to remember with cheeks, is they are quite a fatty meat and the muscle fibres are very dense, so whichever method you choose, it's going to take time.One classic method is braising the cheeks with a variety of vegetables and something slightly sweet and sharp as a counter for the fat and cook in the oven for 2 to 3 hours at around 180c (350f) Basically dust the cheeks in a little flour and season, then brown in some olive oil. remove form the pan and lightly sautÃ© your vegetables, use leeks, baby onions, carrots, apples, garlic etc. add the cheeks pack to the pan, add some stock or stock/cider mix and cook. You could also do this on the hob (cooker top) in a heavy bottomed pan, but cook for 4 hours on a low heat.  <sep>  Q: How should I cook pigs cheeks?

I've had problems making foam because of hard/basic tap water (a lot of chalk in the water) - making frape though, not garlic foam:) Foam will more easily form in soft water as you can easily test with a piece of soap. If you have hard tap water you could try using boiled water (some of the chalk in the water will react and leave a residue on the bottom of the pot) or bottled water with pH 7 (neutral). Another idea would be to add just enough acid for neutralisation but I imagine that could be a bit tricky and you'd risk the milk curdling so I wouldn't recommend it.  <sep>  Q: This is my first time making a foam using soy lecithin but I want to know why there was not enough foam?
Output: Yes
CONTEXT: Some ingredients do not dissolve well in hot water - the starch swells and thickens, forming lumps that may have raw powder in them and are nasty. They need to be added to cold or lukewarm water and heated after they are dissolved. Other ingredients, most notably pasta, will partially dissolve in cold water making a thick gloppy soup. But if you add them to hot water they will "seal" (in a way) and stay together as they cook.  <sep>  Q: Why are some kind of packets-soups boiled up in lukewarm water, while normally just stirred into already boiling water? A: Some ingredients do not dissolve well in hot water  Q: Which ingredients would they be? A: he starch swells and thickens  Q: Why does it say boil and then wait 5-10 before eating? A: they will "seal" (in a way) and stay together as they cook.  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Would using this method cause some soups to be lumpy?
Output: Yes
CONTEXT: The proteins in a fresh egg are too viscous, even when thoroughly beaten, to wash a baked good.The water thins the proteins so you get a nice glaze instead of a layer of scrambled egg.Older eggs have sometimes degraded enough that they don't need the water but it is easier to always add water than to make a subjective judgement on the state of your egg proteins.  <sep>  Q: What's the purpose of adding water to an egg wash? A: The water thins the proteins so you get a nice glaze instead of a layer of scrambled egg  Q: Many recipes I've seen call for beating a tablespoon###or so of water in with the egg for an egg wash.###What is the effect of adding the water to the egg wash when baking?

CONTEXT: Alton Brown recommends brining pork chops in a salt water solution in one of his Good Eats episodes. I have been brining them before I cook them ever since I saw that and think it makes them juicier.I brine them for a couple hours at most and then just cook them. Never tried the drying in the refrigerator.  <sep>  Q: I want to prepare pork chops by salting them, putting them in a brine, and drying them, but how should I go about this? A: Alton Brown recommends brining pork chops in a salt water solution in one of his Good Eats episodes  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Do I still have to cook the meat after all that, or is it ready to eat?
Output: Yes
CONTEXT: Our brains are wired to consider food more palatable if the dedicated taste receptors (one of the six basic tastes) for salt are triggered. And in a non-urban world, salt/sodium is a valuable nutrient; the fact we might have it too readily available in the developed world doesn't change that we would DIE on a zero-sodium diet (mind that animal products like meat aren't zero-sodium, and that herbivores tend to love licking salt where they find it!). So our brains have a good evolutionary reason to like salt.Also, salt actively interferes (negatively) with another basic taste receptor - the receptor for bitterness (which can mean poison both in nature and in the developed world, or at least something we have no use for, eg an alkali). Most aromatic food (think green vegetables or spices) is bitter, and salt both attenuates that perception and balances it making the combined food still desirable for our brain. You end up with an even more palatable food since you can use an aromatic (desirable) and shut out the bitterness (not always desirable) response.Umami is a different basic taste, probably related to the presence of protein (glutamate, inosinate, guanylate... trigger it - these are amino acids or salts thereof, and an indicator of easily-digestible protein presence).  <sep>  Q: Why does salt enhance the flavor of food? A: our brains have a good evolutionary reason to like salt  Q: Does salt contain nutrients? A: salt/sodium is a valuable nutrient; the fact we might have it too readily available in the developed world doesn't change that we would DIE on a zero-sodium diet  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Do other animals eat salt?

CONTEXT: Sadly, baked potatoes are one of those foods that are only truly at their peak when first baked. Either re-baking them or microwaving them will give the least bad results for reheating.Your better bet, however, is to give them a new life, for example as potato pancakes, hash browns, as an ingredient in a hash, or similar application. While they won't have the same quality as a fresh baked potato, these can be very good dishes.  <sep>  Q: How to reheat a baked potato? A: Sadly, baked potatoes are one of those foods that are only truly at their peak when first baked. Either re-baking them or microwaving them will give the least bad results for reheating  Q: Which do you think does better? A: Your better bet, however, is to give them a new life, for example as potato pancakes, hash browns, as an ingredient in a hash, or similar application  Q: Which way of using the potatoes again do you like best? A: hash browns  Q: and your second favorite? A: potato pancakes  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Great is there a way you have used that you didn't like?

CONTEXT: The smell is of rancid fats in the flour. It is a very distinct smell, but hard to describe. I would agree that "sour" is part of it. The best way to learn is by comparison. Smell some fresh, clean flour and remember what it is like. Any kind of unpleasant odor than that is rancidity. You may have smelled it also if you opened a box of cereal that has been around too long, or even poppy or sesame seeds - anything with fats that sits around at room temp will eventually go rancid.  <sep>  Q: What does flour smell like when it goes bad? A: It is a very distinct smell, but hard to describe. I would agree that "sour" is part of it. The best way to learn is by comparison  Q: Does that mean it's spoiled?

CONTEXT: If you whisk egg whites to much they will definitely separate.Basically you are over tightening their stretchy proteins which squeeze out all the water. You are left with useless protein fluff floating on water.The flavor and odor will not change, however. That would be a sign off spoiling and unrelated to the whisking.  <sep>  Q: Is it possible to whisk egg whites too much? A: If you whisk egg whites to much they will definitely separate  Q: What happens to rhetoric If the egg whites separate?###The food not rhetoric A: Basically you are over tightening their stretchy proteins which squeeze out all the water  Q: Would this make the food more dry?

CONTEXT: This is something that can happen during the manufacture of porcelain. It is due to iron particles in the clay used to make the porcelain, they get this look after being fired. It is part of the mug itself and cannot be removed. Customers don't like isolated black dots on white porcelain, so high end manufacturers only sell items without these dots. But if you bought something in the mid- or low-price range, or B-ware from the high end brands, these specks are common enough. It is only an optical defect, the mug itself is clean and you don't have to do anything more about it.  <sep>  Q: Black spots in porcelain coffee mug?

CONTEXT: Yes, you should store them in a air-tight jar, and the best is to store the jar in a cool place in the house. The fridge is to moist for storing cupcakes. You can store them in the jar for about 3-4 days, but they won't taste fresh any more. So I would suggest if you want to store them longer then 1 or maybe 2 days, freeze them right after they cooled down from baking. If you use a topping, you can top your cupcakes when they are thawed.  <sep>  Q: How to best store cupcakes? A: you should store them in a air-tight jar, and the best is to store the jar in a cool place in the house  Q: When I put them in the fridge, they developed a kind of a moist surface by the next day. Should I just leave them outside in an air-tight jar? A: So I would suggest if you want to store them longer then 1 or maybe 2 days, freeze them right after they cooled down from baking  Q: so to compare then, for how long will they stay fresh outside, rather than in freezer? A: You can store them in the jar for about 3-4 days, but they won't taste fresh any more  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Some say you can add things like rice to the storage bag, to absorb any moisture, any thoughts on this?

CONTEXT: You are not hurting the flavor.In theory, it will shorten the steeping time a miniscule (probably imperceptable) amount, but the effect is more psychologial perception than reality.I pour boiling hot water over my teabag and start my timer for five minutes and don't touch or swirl the tea bag. If the bag sits in the hot water 20% longer (6 minutes instead of 5), I would be lying if I tried to pretend that I could preceive a taste difference from the previous cuppa I'd sipped. I cannot.Costs you nothing - so try it and see if you can taste any difference.  <sep>  Q: Will swishing or moving a teabag around affect the steeping time in any way? A: In theory, it will shorten the steeping time a miniscule (probably imperceptable) amount, but the effect is more psychologial perception than reality  Q: Am I hurting the flavor at all?

CONTEXT: If it's cast iron, and you're really paranoid about it, just stick it in the oven, run a clean cycle, then re-season. Cast iron can withstand stupidly large amounts of heat: in traditional Chinese cookery, woks are cleaned by building a big fire, and throwing them in...When the fire burns out, you dig out your wok, re-season, and you're back in business.If it's stainless, just stick it in the dishwasher.  <sep>  Q: What do I do about rodent droppings on cast-iron frying pan A: f it's cast iron, and you're really paranoid about it, just stick it in the oven, run a clean cycle, then re-season  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Will it be safe to use after that...I have small children?

CONTEXT: All of these are natural colorants but also impart a bit of flavor with them.For the raspberry layer you could use a tiny amount of beet juice to really kick the red.For yellow colors you have a few options. Saffron can work really well though I'm not sure what mango/lime/saffron tastes like. Another organic single ingredient is Achiote, which has an extremely mild sweet flavor. It's used for coloring mac and cheese and most processed cheese.Hope these ideas help.  <sep>  Q: How do i make stronger colors in three part pannacotta? A: Saffron can work really well  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Are there any others?

CONTEXT: Judging from those Wikipedia articles:Clarified butter is rendered butter, which means that the solids are removed.Beurre noisette is browned butter, which contains the solids.Ghee is slightly-browned (it should have a golden color) butter that is rendered. So you melt the butter till it's golden. Then you remove the solids by pouring the top layer into a container. So you have a combination (if you like) of clarified and browned butter.  <sep>  Q: Is âgheeâ clarified butter or beurre noisette? A: Clarified butter is rendered butter, which means that the solids are removed.Beurre noisette is browned butter, which contains the solids  Q: Does Ghee contain solids? A: you melt the butter till it's golden. Then you remove the solids by pouring the top layer into a container. So you have a combination (if you like) of clarified and browned butter  Q: Does it matter whether the solids are in the butter when you are making a sauce that calls for ghee? A: you ha  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Can you substitute Ghee for a recipe that calls for beurre noisette?
Output: Yes
CONTEXT: This is going to depend on how long you want to keep it for. If you're serving it soon (say, same day, maybe next), then don't refrigerate it at all, though some people seem to think it gives better flavor to refrigerate overnight.If you've used e.g., buttercream frosting, you'll need to refrigerate or freeze it, unless you're serving immediately after frosting. Some fillings may also require refrigeration.If you're storing short term, up to maybe a week, refrigerate it.If you're going to be storing it long-term (more than a few days, up to three months), you'll need to tightly wrap it once its cooled, and freeze it. After more than 3â4 months, flavor will be lost, but it'll still be safe to eat, as long as its stayed at 0Â°F/-17Â°C or below.  <sep>  Q: Should a Pound Cake be stored in the fridge or the freezer?

CONTEXT: You're comparing different quantities. A serving of cream (per your label) is a tablespoon. You're comparing that to 1 cup (or 16 tablespoons) of milk. The percentage that you're seeing is not what percentage of your dairy product is fat, but the percentage of the recommended daily amount of that nutrient found in a single serving. % Daily Value is figured using 2000 total calories per person, per day.From @Jefromi in comments: "And a tablespoon of cream is 15g, so with 5g of fat, that's indeed about 33%, right in the expected range. Similarly the milk is 8g of fat out of about 237g, or 3.4%, what you'd expect for whole milk."  <sep>  Q: I am under the impression that the difference between milk and heavy cream is the percentage of butterfat/milkfat?
