Don't worry Doc, that hasn't happened in a long time, and the last time it did there was not much left of it anyway.
Hopefully it helps spread the cold butter tooCold butter. Yep. The invention of the lightsaber is going to change the world for the better in that regard first and foremost.
It's addictive. My friend told me to try it one day. I thought he was messing with me. He wasn't..
that lady is my wife exactly......I lived in an attic bedroom (nicer than it sounds) rented out to me in my early twenties by a nice Filipina lady and her Scottish husband who had been a friend of the family for many years. It was no big deal for her to leave everything on the counter, including fish heads, which are the thing I remember most. There are always very interesting cooking smells coming from that house.
Anyway. at the time I was working at the restaurant and bar, and would often come home too exhausted to make myself anything to eat. One day she said "Dave I made you a hot dog, it's on the counter. It's a nice hotdog". And I was exhausted so I thought, great!
I had already gotten about two bites in by the time I noticed mold on one side of the bun, and well, let's just say that I lost my appetite immediately.
Not my wife, it doesn't even get a chance to cool off and it's in the fridge/freezer hermetically sealed in multi layers of sterile wrap.I'm a stick in fridge as soon as hits room temp on food. on condiments and such I just follow the label. now my wife who grew up on a farm...
she'll leave leftover food even stuff like shrimp on the countertop overnight and next day and eat at room temp. she also will eat stuff I never would. mold on top growing..shell scrape it off and eat the rest. stuff like that. old condiments she has zero fear. she'd do your jelly thing. she likes to keep the butter on the countertop..drives me crazy. shes got my boy doing it all that way too. leaves leftover food put in container ready for the fridge and leaves it on the countertop overnight, eats the next day. she and the boy never get sick from it. I like stuff in the fridge as soon possible.
I think more like her on this topic. I just don't like to put hot food in the fridge....I'm okay with cooled down from super hot in fridge though.Not my wife, it doesn't even get a chance to cool off and it's in the fridge/freezer hermetically sealed in multi layers of sterile wrap.
didn't know you were a chef......learn something interesting here all the time.....Yes it is bad. The food won't be in the danger zone too long if left to cool at ambient room temp but the temperature of all fridge contents is potentially compromised by making the fridge work extra hard.
Also not supposed to pour hot liquids into cool ones, like when adding something to a batch of soup. Not talking about making a drink.
I took the chef apprenticeship 25 years ago before I knew it wasn't right for me. Got a set of knives out of it though, a couple of which I still have today.
I haven't seen it, but I have faith that you're a pit BBQ master....... for our picnic, and the bbq will be great......Have you seen my posts in the CPK what's that your eating thread? My cheffyiness is not very
