https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7 Let's talk about you and cooking! Pick ONE column, a cooking method that you have used. Tell us what you cooked using that method, and general observations about what happened to the food when you cooked using this method. I have given an example. en-us 2020-08-12 15:51:59 UTC 2021-04-25 22:40:15 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f373.png https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1126330402 I made boiled chicken and veggies (to minimise fat intake) and it was a lot less tough, oily and it took slightly longer to cook.]]> 2021-01-26 12:22:55 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1126330402 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1162149177 Baking is my favorite! I've made several different cakes and overall I did notice that when using dark pans like my bundt pan the cake will bake faster than if in a lighter metal or glass pan. I've also found that whenever I'm making muffins or cupcakes the end result comes out more evenly and fully baked if I use the muffin cups with the additional tinfoil layer verses the plain paper ones.]]> 2021-02-04 06:22:58 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1162149177 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1163778410 I enjoy baking the best and normally its desserts. I used a method once I believe called docking which is poking holes into bread or dough which prevents too much rise. I like that with baking you are able to make breakfast, lunch or dinnner. There is a wide variety of food you can bake.]]> 2021-02-04 14:05:59 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1163778410 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1164422285 I also enjoy baking whenever I'm home. I like to bake cookies, they turn out well when I put them in the oven. I did not know that baking can be traced back to Ancient Rome, the resort I work at has a pastry chef. I also fount it interesting that the temperatures can vary to as low as 250 and as high as 500 degrees.

We grill chicken, burgers and fish most often. I learned that a toaster is actually a grill. I have used a toaster before, I enjoy having my toast crispy. I know that sometimes, toast can become burned using this method. ]]> 2021-02-04 15:54:40 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1164441548 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1166732535 2021-02-05 02:03:13 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1166732535 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1172072990 I have fried tortilla chips and fries and both of them turn to a light brown color. When you first put them in the oil starts to bubble, but as they are frying the bubbles become less and less, untill there are none. ]]> 2021-02-06 21:12:52 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1172072990 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1172394146 I like to grill whenever I can, even during the winter. I grill just about everything chicken, pork, beef, potatoes, corn, carrots, green beans, pineapple, tortillas, pizzas, etc. I like to grill because it adds a different flavor than cooking other ways. I notice all my food normally tastes better, doesn't take as long, and tends to fill me up more than if I were to bake or pan fry. In my opinion it also limits the fat/grease content in some of the foods. ]]> 2021-02-07 03:59:22 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1172394146 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1180037973 I have fried sausage and eggs almost every morning for breakfast and the sausages turn to almost brown on top and bottom after using vegetable oil. Next I added a couple eggs into the pan and began mixing the two along with the sausages for about a few minutes until they are ready.]]> 2021-02-09 02:11:39 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1180037973 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1185161186 I flambed chicken for a nice taco. I've done a taste test between flamed chicken and non flamed chicken for me I personally found not a big difference it did have a slit carmilization but besides that nothing else really changed. I would have to say that when you flambe its more for looks than it is for actually taste.]]> 2021-02-10 00:18:46 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1185161186 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1188467160 I love to grill a nice steak on a summer evening or noon. Burgers on Sunday with my dad is a nice way to relax on a Sunday. Chicken wings are also a fun one, saucing them before you plate them. ]]> 2021-02-10 16:57:20 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1188467160 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1193745423 I have sauteed mushrooms, which is one of my favorite veggies. I typically saute the veggies with a splash of olive oil. When they saute, I notice that the mushrooms get a little crisp on the outside and softer on the inside more. Depending on how long you saute them and what the heat is, they normally still have a slight crunch to them but the oil softens them as well. They also become smaller in size.]]> 2021-02-11 18:05:06 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1193745423 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199316217 I made pan-fried breaded chicken breast patties for sandwiches recently. The oil kept the breasts from sticking to the pan. It also crisped up the breading like it would in a deep-fryer.]]> 2021-02-13 14:37:20 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199316217 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199574291 i have baked a delicious cake made from sweet Cocoa powder that was called Cocoa Devil's Food Cake, with a delicious tasting, already made Cream Cheese Frosting. I followed the recipe instructions from my Joy of Cooking book 75th anniversary, and the cake turned out delicious especially since I used sweet Cocoa powder as an ingredient. i had made it quite a few times since the sweet Cocoa powder came in a big size can, and it didn't take a lot to make it.]]> 2021-02-13 17:31:54 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199574291 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199585070 I had broiled boneless chicken breast. I had put seasoning on a plate with some oil, then I had dipped my chicken breasts into the seasoned oil, then I placed the chicken breasts on the broiler. I checked for doneness with a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat.
I also grilled hamburgers while I was working at a Music Concert at Alpine Music Valley in 2019. I grilled a lot of burgers, and they were done and tasted good.]]> 2021-02-13 17:38:59 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199585070 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199599466 I sauted myself steak. First it was a nice size steak. I had to use my heavy cast iron skillet. It cooked good with the help of the heavy skillet and it tasted great afterwards.
I also fried an egg. I putted in the pan. I did not bust the yoke as I use to do, I seasoned it with salt, I letted the egg yoke cook all the way through, the end result was that it tasted a whole lot better than the fried eggs that I use to make after busting the egg yoke.]]> 2021-02-13 17:48:19 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199599466 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199608458 I have boiled beef franks and jumbo turkey franks. i simmer stocks in my Culinary Skills 1 class.

I have notice whenever i use it the color on the steaks doesn't look the best but is easily fixable by searing the meat.]]> 2021-02-13 19:23:04 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199734852 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199767253 I baked gluten-free cupcakes with the baking method before. When I started I did have to watch my heat when baking the cupcakes. The cupcakes did call for the oven to be preheated. I didnt want the cupcakes to become dry from baking too long. I did bake the cupcake with a dark muffin pan and used paper muffin cups. The cupcakes did come out moist and evenly cooked. ]]> 2021-02-13 19:47:04 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199767253 cowanm11 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199901296 I Saute and Fry things almost every day. Recently I used a couple of methods put together to make a quiche. Aside from prebaking the crust, and later the quiche itself; the first ingredients that I used were sauted garlic, mushrooms, and shallots. Its a small step but that with the bacon and other fresh ingredients were super important for the flavor that I wanted. All the sauted ingredients got a very slight caramelization, but no burn on them. ]]> 2021-02-13 21:43:53 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199901296 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199986218 Every morning I make eggs with sautéed onions, peppers and mushrooms in them. I also like to sauté mushrooms and other vegetables to go with my dinner most nights.]]> 2021-02-13 23:18:48 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1199986218 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1205335030 I use to always bake with my mom. a general observation I learned is that you have to be exact with the ingredients otherwise it will not turn out. Every time I bake, I feel like the desert turns out different each time. Also, I always bake my chicken with olive oil. I noticed that olive oil burns faster than other oils.]]> 2021-02-16 02:56:39 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1205335030 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1207313405 2021-02-16 15:18:48 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1207313405 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1221874111 I like to sometimes help my mom bake certain things. We have banana Nutella muffins, choc chip cookies, banana bread, cakes, etc. During the cooking process of these I noticed how all of them got bigger and more fluffy due to being baked.]]> 2021-02-20 18:43:39 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1221874111 https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1224135225 Baking is something that I excel at, especially making it unhealthier than it was.

I prefer over easy eggs. When I first learned how to do it I thought they were turning out really well, but lately I am having trouble with when to flip them and the yolk is cooking more than I want it to. Also I like to use olive oil but sometimes I think I use too much and the eggs are really oily.]]> 2021-04-24 20:08:28 UTC https://padlet.com/quinnb11/yvxjycbrjlivedc7/wish/1455137844
