    Blanching is the water way, but dry roasting works too.
    They're both if all you want is the peel off.

    Leave the skin on. Don't blanch.

      >Leave the skin on. Don't blanch.
      THE skin is always really difficult to remove and i lose a lot of "meat' when i just roast the pepper. i was told to blanch first to make it easier.

      how?

        you could try burning the skin off
        a lot of cultures will put peppers on an open flame until the skin gets black

        Then they literally wipe off the skin while the flesh stays relatively fresh/lightly cooked

    just roast over direct flame till the skin blackens and blisters all over, then put the pepper into a plastic bag and seal for a few minutes. This allows it to steam and the skin to soften, allowing it to peal away easily. The intense roast lends nice flavor.

    Literally get everything together beforehand. You want a bowl as close to the same size as the amount of peppers you will peel, foodservice film, some tongs, and some goddamned fire. Throw the peppers into as high of heat as possible and yank them out as soon as possible but when they get black blisters all over and chuck into the bowl then quickly wrap. Wait just long enough you thing you will be able to peel them without peeling your hand too. Don't be a pussy and wait too long or you will cook your peppers.

        To blanch a bell pepper you simply run a hand through the skin and remove all of the juices. Use the peeler as your peeler, it has a very easy hold in water.

    What's the proper way to caramelize onions? Mine always end up uneven despite constantly stirring and cooking them at a low flame.
    Should I use more oil? Is the secret just dumping a whole kilogram of onions in a pot so I can move them around evenly? I really don't know what I'm doing wrong.

      Don't stir constantly. Stir occasionally. They lose some heat whenever you stir. Your pan may also not be distributing heat evenly to the outer edge, and you might be overcrowding.

      You should only have enough oil to lightly coat all the onions you have in the pan, and the onions not deeper than 1/4“ (a cm maybe?) in the pan. Low/medium low heat, stir occasionally, once the onions are softening you can toss a pinch or two of sugar in to kickstart the caramelization

      I sometimes brush kale with olive oil and put it in the oven at 190 to 200 celsius. It doesn't burn until after the 30 minute mark.

        Raw unblended kale doesn't taste nice and the nutrients are not very bioavailable.

          he sauteed it already dummy. Plus inironically, the heat of the pizza cooks the kale.
          Ask your pizza place to do it with spinach; it's great.

    Uncle Junior is giving that workman good advice.

    As for blanching, it's pretty much the same no matter what you're doing it to; bring the water to a boil, but the thing in the water for a short time. Keep a close eye on it. Transfer to very cold water afterwards.

    I will also agree with the other anon who suggested roasting the pepper instead.

    There's no reason to remove the skin on a capsicum unless you are doing a blackened/smoked pepper to then put into a salsa or dip.

    Can I make it at home by just covering some beef or pork cuts in salt? How long do you leave it?

          But there is. They have their own traditions, cuisine, literature, national costume, architecture and even impact on the world stage with swedish corporations like Ikea and volvo. As for ethnicity, you can't really be serious, of course they do. If the 70 billion different tribes in africa count as different ethnicities count, then swedes definitely do

    How do you properly crack/open an egg? I prefer the side of the pan over the flat surface but the actual “open” action of the egg fricks me over.

    • 2 years ago
      Anonymous

      I use a spoon to crack it, and them my two hands to open the egg.

      How many times do you reuse your frying oil? I mostly use soybean oil, can I mix it a little of lard in it? It will improve the flavor?

    first time i made vuiscutts and sausage gravy, it came out great!

    this time i used salami instead of sausage and heavy cream instead of milk, and it looks like shit.
    looks like there is A LOT of excess grease in the pan, what is going on?

    • 2 years ago

      like you said, excess grease

      you have to cook it down with flour and then add milk, your ratios are just off

      next time, try pouring the oil out once rendered and measuring it so you know a bit more about how much flour to use

      you can always add the remaining salami back in once the gravy looks right

            The working class actually deserves the majority of the cookies as they are the ones actually doing the labor that makes money
            The person who doles out the cookies deserves less because he takes the cookies made by the worker and tells the worker that he only has one cookie

    Why does my oil separate? Doing a reduction sauce.
    2 tbsp olive oil, post frying chicken

    fill to 1 cup with water

      You either need some kind of starch or an emulsifier to keep oil and water together.
      You could try whisking in a cornstarch slurry or an egg yolk, however both of them will thicken your sauce quite significantly.
      >Cornstarch slurry
      Mix a tbsp of cornstarch with a splash of water then add that slurry bit by bit while stirring.
      You need to cook the sauce for a few minutes afterwards to get rid of the starchy flavour.
      Don't add too much at once because that stuff thickens after it boils for a bit.
      >Egg yolk
      Don't add it to a boiling sauce or you'll get scrambled eggs.
      Pull the pan off the heat, whisk in the yolk and then slowly heat it up again on low while stirring.
      Try not to boil your sauce once you've added the egg yolk.

      Next time you could try making a roux first before dumping in your liquids.
      Just add a bit of flour to the oil in the pan after frying the chicken, cook it for a bit then stir in your liquids.

      Fry at a highest heat and add the water little by little. It'll emulsify all right.
