  • I think the best bet would be following recipes. That means finding recipes that minimize ‘to taste’ instructions. A lot can be done by look and texture, so you can be decent enough for anyone who’s not a snob. Also, err on the side of too little salt and put some on the table.


  • Refreezing is fine for safety (if you thawed it correctly). The main reason not to freeze and thaw things multiple times is that tiny ice crystals do damage to the structure of the food each time freezing happens.

    In meat, that damage makes your meat dry out easier when cooking. That’s normally a bad thing, bit it might actually be a good idea for making jerky.

    In short, I would have no hesitation using refrozen meat to make jerky














  • Poach equals lower temp liquid. It can be oil or water type liquid. Boil is maximum temp water type liquid only. Blanching is boiling for a short time with the intention of not cooking all of the way through (eg to get skin off or to prepare for preservation by freezing).

    Fry and saute are used interchangably all the time. One person’s fried onions is another’s sauted onions. Saute should indicate small pieces turned or tossed in a moderate amout of fat. Fry can be small or large pieces and can have moderate to lots of fat as a cooking medium.

    Note that this is how normal people in my region and life use these terms and I make no claim that this is ‘right’ just my experience.

    To explain more, an understandable and common mistake is to just move the .iso file to the flash drive. For it to work you have to write the information contained in the .iso file (aka image) to the flash drive using an app like the ones listed above.
