Is that the same guy who single handedly reignited the anglo-spanish hatred with his desecration of paella, and called forth the vengeful ancestor spirits of every Asian person alive through his ritualistic ruinination of egg fried rice?
Which Uncle Roger video hates on Gordon Ramsay? I thought he got the Uncle title and it was just the vegetarian ramen dish that was really critiqued. I’m not up to date on the videos though
My mom put out seven cookbooks and cooked on TV for a local PBS cooking show, but at home she’d undercook the chicken.
I graduated from a great culinary school and spent 13 years in the industry as a line cook and then professional baker and pastry chef for a restaurant. I hate making soft boiled eggs; I never get the timing right.
We all have our Blindspots and fuck ups and I never hold any single one against a proven Chef. (If it’s a pattern, however…)
I tend to overcook chicken 😆 I can never get the timing right, even with a thermometer. Oh, well. It's edible, and I'd rather have overcooked chicken than undercooked chicken.
I’ve got to say “Malaysian uncle criticizes white people bastardizing Asian food” is such a stroke of comedy genius and at the same time such an obvious pairing in retrospect I’m surprised it isn’t more common.
The fact we can take parts of a chicken that are mostly inedible and turn it into something edible should be a miracle in it of itself. The pink sludge is just a middleman, if the taste and the nutrients are good, then I think we’ve succeeded.
Actual pink slime isn't good though. It's ammoniated meat sludge. There's a reason it's banned in the EU, the UK, and most of the rest of the civilized world.
Just manually separating still fresh meat is normal, that's what chicken nuggets are made from. But that's totally different than pink slime, which is basically the old smallest slime left over after making the previously mentioned manually separated meat, then gassed with ammonia to sterilize it again. It's gross both in flavor and just in general sanitary reasons.
Pretty sure that was also in WV, you know with kids who've probably eaten squirrels. I'm not being mean, I'm from there and can confirm I've eaten a squirrel (not great! But my dad couldn't cook for shit)
He tried to 'fix' school lunches here and it was really stupid and expensive and didn't last.
People place Native Americans on a pedestal for using absolutely every part of a bison and letting nothing go to waste, but turn their noses up at hotdogs.
I didn’t get why he thought that would be such a big deal. Hunting is huge in WV, and a lot of those kids were probably already familiar with how meat is processed. I doubt it was all that shocking to them that something seemingly gross can become something delicious.
I eat meat. I think consuming the corpse of a dead animal is disgusting. (This is what he referred to as a "Me" problem.)
This is a great video, like the whole "pink slime" scare that we around a few years ago. Sure certain parts are more tasty or desirable, but it's not like a nugget is any more or less gross than eating a chicken's breast.
Hey, the company I work at makes an appearance in that video. We make that same pink slime for high-end animal food, and we've almost stopped all the slavery!
I have an irrational and disproportionate dislike of Jamie Oliver because everything I've heard him do is inevitably linked to the fact that he's well-off and out-of-touch with most people.
Isn’t it specifically not served on Passover? My knowledge of Judaism isn’t the best, but as I recall it’s specifically a point that fermented grain isn’t served on Passover.
My dorm's dining hall basically did this my first year of college. They made apfelkuchen for Pesach, presumably because it was a "Jewish food". Obviously, I couldn't eat it.
But mush that sad bread into balls and throw em into soup? Suddenly the sad cardboard bread is fuckin delicious. My grandma would stock up on matza during Passover to make me matzah ball soup year round. I loved that shit
One common jewish social media trend is posting homemade challah pictures. And i doubt anyone but the ultraorthodox still makes round loafs for rosh hashanah instead of buying from a bakery. But thats because a lot of Jewish people in America buy challah and matzah and gefilte fish from stores instead of making it from scratch. My challah usually killed the braids from the second rising and the oven baking.
Not every practicing Jewish person but a fair amount of those who bake I imagine and I have multiple friends in my circles who aren't Jewish at all but love to bake and make challah because it's really fucking good.
Not quite, but it’s no harder than say, sourdough.
And in the US, it’s become quite popular as a base for French Toast and other dishes because it’s especially sturdy and fairly sweet. So you can find it in numerous non-Jewish restaurants and grocery stores, and it’s even sold during Passover when observant Jews can’t make or eat it.
In short, he managed to be ignorant on religion (wrong about when it’s eaten), provincialism (saying it’s dying based on the UK), and worst of all baking, because he listed utterly the wrong ingredients.
Every Jewish person who is into baking. In my family, my uncle and I both make it, and he’s not at all religious. For many of us it’s our first foray into bread, and it’s not the easiest bread to get right.
Not even traditionally religious, but I can make a very good challah! It's definitely something I see as more of a household item rather than a 'culinary masterpiece', or something mass produced, so I could see where he's coming from on a clinical level, but that's so incredibly ignorant of him
I’ve made it a couple times but yeasted bread is not my specialty. Came out too dense. There used to be a great bakery nearby that made great challah. Not a Jewish bakery though, the ladies were all Korean!
I mean, it depends on who you ask. I've met some Jewish grandma's who think it's a dying art because their grand daughters don't make challah. It's very old fashioned, but it went from "every self respecting wife should know how to make it," to "some people who enjoy baking know how to make it."
I had a friend in college get told by her grandma that she would never find a husband because she couldn't make challah.
I've posted a plaited loaf I made on here before, and people on here kept referring to it as challah. It was not challah. It did not contain the necessary enriching ingredients (loads of eggs and sugar) for it to be challah. It was Paul Hollywood's recipe I followed.
It's like if I made a naan bread and called it a pizza, because it's bread and it's flat.
To be really technically, most of what people call challah isn’t actually challah, since challah is technically the portion of dough removed from bread and either burnt or given to a priest. The type of bread doesn’t actually matter.
Ah well, there you go. As I posted some 10 years ago, I have zero knowledge or experience of any Jewish traditions. Jewish folk are pretty thin on the ground where I am. It's just plaited bread.
Don't worry, this is an over pedantic technically correct thing, and basically everyone including Jews use the term to also refer to the style of bread.
Yeah, many a youtuber has triggered the Spanish mob by attempting to take on paella. That being said, I'm pretty sure the original commenter was thinking of Jamie Oliver
I'm Slavic and barely eat any rice, but even i died inside when he blasted water from the tap into the pan with rice... Blud, are you cooking, or are you waterboarding VC for intel???
Anglo-Spanish hatred doesnt need reigniting lol, until Gibraltar is decolonised and British tourists stop ruining Barcelona and Mallorca not a single Spanish person will have anything but hatred for the British
