Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. Input: Consider Input: CONTEXT: Yes, you can entirely replace water with milk. The main thing to be aware of is how prone it is to boiling over. Milk will eagerly do that on its own, and starchy water will too, so the combination has to be cooked on very low heat to avoid making a huge mess. (I think this is why the original recipe starts with water: less time with potential for boiling over, and more stable temperature when you add the milk.) You'll also probably want to be more careful about stirring the first time; if the heat is a little higher than you realize, you will start accumulating a layer on the bottom of the pan.If you want them to cook faster and have less potential boiling over to worry about, you can always presoak in milk beforehand. I've done this overnight in the fridge, which was enough to let me make (admittedly slightly chewy) steel-cut oats in the microwave the next morning. <sep> Q: Steel Cut Oats: cooking in milk vs. water###Most of the recipes I've seen (including Good Eats) recommend simmering the oats in 4 cups of liquid for 1 cup of oats. Alton Brown recommends 3 cups of water for ~25 mins and then (1/2 cup of milk + 1/2 cup of buttermilk) for ~10 mins.###However, I would like to do away with water entirely (just curious). Could I just simmer 1 cup of oats in 4 cups of milk for ~40mins? A: you can entirely replace water with milk. The main thing to be aware of is how prone it is to boiling over. Milk will eagerly do that on its own Q: is the first ~25mins of simmering in water designed to maximize water absorption? A: the combination has to be cooked on very low heat to avoid making a huge mess. (I think this is why the original recipe starts with water: less time with potential for boiling over Q: Also, if anyone has cooked oats mostly in milk before, I'd like to hear their opinion as well###Thank you A: If you want them to cook faster and have less potential boiling over to worry about, you can always presoak in milk beforehand Q: That sounds helpful. Thanks for the tip A: I've done this overnight in the fridge, which was enough to let me make (admittedly slightly chewy) steel-cut oats in the microwave the next morning <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Okay. Anything else that I should know Output: You'll also probably want to be more careful about stirring the first time; if the heat is a little higher than you realize, you will start accumulating a layer on the bottom of the pan Input: Consider Input: CONTEXT: Steaming generally doesn't make meat juicier -- it is just as easy to dry out a piece of meat with wet heat as it is with dry heat, if not easier.There are two things that you can do to make your turkey juicier. The first is a brine, which Elendil suggests above. The second is to make sure you aren't overcooking. I'd suggest using a probe thermometer and pulling the tenderloin when it is at around 160F and letting it coast to your target temperature of 165F. <sep> Q: How effective is steaming a turkey tenderloin the size of a brisket to make it tender and juicy? A: Steaming generally doesn't make meat juicier -- it is just as easy to dry out a piece of meat with wet heat as it is with dry heat, if not easier Q: What's one thing I can do to make my turkey juicier? A: There are two things that you can do to make your turkey juicier Q: What's one of those things I can do? A: The first is a brine Q: What's the other strategy I can use here? A: The second is to make sure you aren't overcooking <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Do you have a suggestion how I can prevent it from being overcooked? Output: I'd suggest using a probe thermometer and pulling the tenderloin when it is at around 160F and letting it coast to your target temperature of 165F. Input: Consider Input: CONTEXT: In my experience, rice can be cooked in any pot. I cook quite a lot of Japanese style dishes, and as far as I can tell the rice is cooked in the same way as any other.For myself, I've done it in good "induction-able" steel pots, as well as huge (navy galley) aluminium pots, and a couple of low-quality stainless steel things too. They're all fine.Normally, as soon as the pot is at/near boiling, turn the heat down to a low setting and leave it in the pot until it's ready. Then take it off the heat, but leave it covered (don't peek) for another five minutes.Generally, once you've added the water, you put the lid on. You only start the timer when it's boiled and you turn it down, though. That's probably why a glass lid is better, so you can see the boiling. It's not critical to the process, though. <sep> Q: Do I need a specific pot to cook Japanese-style rice? A: In my experience, rice can be cooked in any pot. I cook quite a lot of Japanese style dishes, and as far as I can tell the rice is cooked in the same way as any other <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Do you suggest a certain method?

Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. Example Input: CONTEXT: Yes, it can go bad.It's pretty much the same as the way flour can go bad: the fats can go rancid. Grains are mostly starch, but they contain enough fat for rancidity to be a noticeable problem. There's a huge amount of variability in how long that takes, though. If it's airtight and kept in a cool, dark place, it'll last much longer than the best before date. But if it's been exposed to air, light, or heat, it can go pretty fast, perhaps even before the best before date.So, smell it. If you detect any unpleasant smells, you probably don't want to eat it. Even if you don't smell anything obvious, it could still be subtly rancid, so if you're planning on serving it to anyone, you might want to cook a small bit to test. <sep> Q: Does polenta 'go off'? A: it can go bad <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: I think mine is a family heirloom. The best before date has passed. Will it taste bad? Example Output: It's pretty much the same as the way flour can go bad: the fats can go rancid Example Input: CONTEXT: To get ground seeds I usually pound the whole pods once or twice in a mortar. The seeds should separate from the husk easily then. Remove the entire pod from the mortar, and grind the seeds.Is this recipe for a marinade? You might get away with just crushing the pods, not separating the husk and seeds. <sep> Q: Recipe asks for 15 cardamom pods, crushed...do I keep the shells? A: To get ground seeds I usually pound the whole pods once or twice in a mortar. The seeds should separate from the husk easily then <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Do I use the shells or dispose of them? Example Output: Remove the entire pod from the mortar, and grind the seeds Example Input: CONTEXT: Personally I'd suggest blanching your pasta. By blanching:I mean get a big pan of heavily salted water on a rolling boil. Drop your pasta into the water, give it a stir.After 1 min or when the water has come back to boil drain the pasta off.At this point your pasta will still be el' dante but not raw which is what I suspect the directions are suggesting when they say "2 min less than instructed" then just use it at the mixing with sour cream step.If you were to just use the pasta freshly made it will likely not have the texture desired. Boiling it will help moisten it up and start to cook the flour. <sep> Q: Is using homemade pasta instead of dried in a bake recommended? A: it will likely not have the texture desired <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Will the noodles be too soft? Example Output:
your pasta will still be el' dante but not raw

Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. [Q]: CONTEXT: I recently found a different sauce that had a similar butterscotch note to it. It turned out this one was a very simple pan sauce built with brandy and beef stock as a deglazing liquid which was allowed to reduce by about 2/3 and then it was finished with a hint of cream.The fond came from a steak cooked in butter so there was probably a little browned butter in there as well.At this point I think the reduced brandy is a big contributor to the flavor I was identifying as butterscotch. This makes sense as brandy is generally somewhat sweet and usually has fairly strong caramel notes. <sep> Q: How do i develop a butterscotch flavor in a savory sauce? A: think the reduced brandy is a big contributor to the flavor I was identifying as butterscotch <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Which other ingredients is needed in developing this flavor [A]: brandy and beef stock as a deglazing liquid [Q]: CONTEXT: Wrapping food in plastic wrap before refrigerating has a few obvious benefits:1) keeps the food from drying out in the fridge.2) prevents odors (garlic, onions, fish, etc.) from transferring between the item in question and everything else in the fridge.3) keeps crumbs, extraneous particles from falling into the food. If there were a lot of mold/microbe life already proliferating in the other refrigerated goodies, it might even serve to slow down slightly their penetration into your new leftover food on intra-fridge air currents (...ovbviously I'm reaching here)But no, you don't have to use the plastic wrap; it's just a custom. <sep> Q: Do I need to seal the food with food wrap before put them in the fridge?###I've always seen friends putting leftover, cooked food in the fridge with food wrap. ### I asked them why they are doing it and they don't even know why they are doing it. ###It is necessary to put just cooked food in the fridge with food wrap? A: Wrapping food in plastic wrap before refrigerating has a few obvious benefits Q: such as? A: 1) keeps the food from drying out in the fridge.2) prevents odors (garlic, onions, fish, etc.) from transferring between the item in question and everything else in the fridge Q: I see. ###So you recommend sealing it with food wrap? A: But no, you don't have to use the plastic wrap; it's just a custom. <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: what do you suggest? [A]: keeps crumbs, extraneous particles from falling into the food. If there were a lot of mold/microbe life already proliferating in the other refrigerated goodies [Q]: CONTEXT: The short answer is yes, you most definitely can but with a few caveats. First, if the skin has any significant amount of sugar on/in it from a glaze or cure it will burn fairly quickly and likely impart a bitter flavor before you are going to achieve the proper crisp a crackling is known for. Also, with hams, there is likely going to be a ton of salt in the skin to begin with and this is likely going to be intensified when you fry it up so be aware of that. I've never had good luck baking pork skin for crackling since the texture is never the same and it takes a lot longer. Deep frying is a much better/authentic way to go. <sep> Q: Can I make crackling from cured ham skin? A: you most definitely can but with a few caveats Q: I have a cured ham, which I have removed the skin to glaze. A: with hams, there is likely going to be a ton of salt in the skin to begin with and this is likely going to be intensified when you fry it up Q: Can I bake the skin and make it into crackling? A: I've never had good luck baking pork skin for crackling since the texture is never the same and it takes a lot longer <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Are there any suggestions for me? [A]:
Deep frying is a much better/authentic way to go

Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. Let me give you an example: CONTEXT: What I've done in the past is mist some water on both sides of the bread slices, then put them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds (alternatively, an oven set at 300F/150C for 5-10 minutes will do it too).Experiment with the amount of water (but keep it low) and cooking times. You should get much softer (and warm) bread slices out of it. <sep> Q: How do I make whole multi grain bread softer? A: mist some water on both sides of the bread slices <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Does that make it soggy? The answer to this example can be: Experiment with the amount of water (but keep it low) Here is why: Here the follow-up question asks about a way to make the bread softer. The answer (Experiment with the amount of water) is mentioned in the passage. OK. solve this: CONTEXT: There is not really a turning point. The way that wine goes bad is the process of making vinegar. From wikipedia:The word "vinegar" derives from the Old French vin aigre, meaning "sour wine".The Canadian government limits things that can be sold as 'vinegar' to something with an acetic acid content of 4-12%, so you could do the technical-bureaucratic thing and wait for the acetic acid to get up to 4%.If you aren't hung up on technicalities, then you can use it as soon as it gets sour enough. It is done when all the alcohol has been changed to acetic acid, but it is a bit hard to taste since the acetic flavor dominates. <sep> Q: When is homemade wine-based vinegar simply bad wine?###Is there a specific smell it should or shouldn't have? A: There is not really a turning point. The way that wine goes bad is the process of making vinegar. From wikipedia Q: What do you need to put into the wine to make it turn into vinegar? A: The word "vinegar" derives from the Old French vin aigre, meaning "sour wine <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Or do you just leave it out? Answer:

It is just easier to handle unpeeled, and even easier when kept as a headFor easy results just trim the excess paper skin and roots of a whole garlic head, carefully trim just the tops of most of the clovesDon't drizzle with oil and wrap in foil, this will just make a mess, and steam them more than roast them. Garlic is already very oily, it shouldn't need any more. Roasting items should be exposed to dry heat, not steamRoast until soft and medium-dark brown. When cooled slightly, pull cloves apart and lay them out on a board. Squeeze out each clove using a firm spatula or other blunt tool. This should not be too messy. Wear disposable gloves if you don't like garlic on your hands <sep> Q: What's the easiest way to roast a large amount of garlic? A: For easy results just trim the excess paper skin and roots of a whole garlic head, carefully trim just the tops of most of the cloves <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Will it effect the taste if I roast an entire head of garlic instead of roasting peeled cloves?

instruction: Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. question: CONTEXT: Sadly, baked potatoes are one of those foods that are only truly at their peak when first baked. Either re-baking them or microwaving them will give the least bad results for reheating.Your better bet, however, is to give them a new life, for example as potato pancakes, hash browns, as an ingredient in a hash, or similar application. While they won't have the same quality as a fresh baked potato, these can be very good dishes. <sep> Q: How to reheat a baked potato? A: Sadly, baked potatoes are one of those foods that are only truly at their peak when first baked. Either re-baking them or microwaving them will give the least bad results for reheating <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Which do you think does better? answer: Your better bet, however, is to give them a new life, for example as potato pancakes, hash browns, as an ingredient in a hash, or similar application question: CONTEXT: These are very similar to potato croquettes, for which there are tons of recipes. Those are usually made with mashed potatoes instead of shredded, but otherwise pretty much the same deal. You can find recipes with varying amounts of creamy things and cheese; I'm guessing the Omaha Steaks ones are on the higher end of that.If you want to try to match the shredded texture better, you can probably start with a potato croquette recipe and just bake and grate/shred the potatoes instead of mashing them.As Cindy noted, you can also find recipes by searching for "au gratin potato balls", plenty of which are mimicking the Omaha Steaks ones. I might be inclined to use a croquette recipe, because it's a more common name so it's easier to find obviously trustworthy recipes, but you'll probably be fine either way. <sep> Q: What are Omaha Steaks "Potatoes Au Gratin" actually? A: These are very similar to potato croquettes, for which there are tons of recipes. Those are usually made with mashed potatoes instead of shredded, but otherwise pretty much the same deal Q: How are they made? A: If you want to try to match the shredded texture better, you can probably start with a potato croquette recipe and just bake and grate/shred the potatoes instead of mashing them <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Are they baked? answer: You can find recipes with varying amounts of creamy things and cheese question: CONTEXT: There's no right or wrong answer as there are advantages to both and it's about what you want out of a burger. The advantage of the minimal disturbance method is that the strands of the meat give the burger structural strength. It also gives a pure beef flavor as you aren't adding anything to it. The mix up method breaks up the strands of meat which come out of the grinder which makes patties more fragile, however flavorings are distributed evenly. Some people add binding agents like egg and breadcrumbs to hold it together when using the mix up method in which case it becomes more of a flat meatball than a burger. My personal preference is the minimal disturbance method as it is fast, the patties hold together, and I like the flavor of pure beef. After forming the patties I salt them on both sides. After the final flip I grind fresh pepper on the cooked side - pepper gets bitter when burned. If I did want to add flavorings I would grind my own meat for the burgers and add the flavorings then. <sep> Q: How should burger patties be prepared in terms of mixing and flavourings? A: There's no right or wrong answer as there are advantages to both and it's about what you want out of a burger Q: I've read to just add salt to the meat, is that going to be enough? A: The advantage of the minimal disturbance method is that the strands of the meat give the burger structural strength. It also gives a pure beef flavor <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Is it true that the meat should be just formed and othewise left alone/ answer:
Some people add binding agents like egg and breadcrumbs to hold it together when using the mix up method in which case it becomes more of a flat meatball than a burger

One example: CONTEXT: What I've done in the past is mist some water on both sides of the bread slices, then put them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds (alternatively, an oven set at 300F/150C for 5-10 minutes will do it too).Experiment with the amount of water (but keep it low) and cooking times. You should get much softer (and warm) bread slices out of it. <sep> Q: How do I make whole multi grain bread softer? A: mist some water on both sides of the bread slices <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Does that make it soggy? Solution is here: Experiment with the amount of water (but keep it low) Explanation: Here the follow-up question asks about a way to make the bread softer. The answer (Experiment with the amount of water) is mentioned in the passage. Now, solve this: CONTEXT: I think this depends on the type of Gorgonzola. A Gorgonzola Dolcé has a milder, sweeter, less-blue flavor, so it should probably be served with a milder steak, like a Filet Mignon. A stronger, more traditional Gorgonzola should probably be served with a stronger flavored steak like a Skirt Steak or a Ribeye. If you flip the combinations around, one of the flavors is going to be lost.I'm not familiar enough with Venison or other game to comment on their compatibility with Gorgonzola. <sep> Q: I am planing on making Gorgonzola and was wondering what the best cut of meat would be to pair it with? A: A Gorgonzola Dolcé has a milder, sweeter, less-blue flavor, so it should probably be served with a milder steak, like a Filet Mignon <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Are there any meats I should stay away from? Solution:
A stronger, more traditional Gorgonzola should probably be served with a stronger flavored steak like a Skirt Steak or a Ribeye

Here the follow-up question asks about a way to make the bread softer. The answer (Experiment with the amount of water) is mentioned in the passage. New input: CONTEXT: I have seen this happening more than once. While I don't know the whole theory behind it, each time it happened, there was something just below the hole, let's call it "the lump". What I think happens is that the lump is too heavy. When the batter below it tries to rise, it doesn't have the strength to push up the lump. This could be combined with differences in heat transfer throughout the batter vs. on the batter-lump transition in preventing rising (I am certain they exist, but I don't know whether they have an effect at all). The result is a hole where the batter didn't rise, surrounded by nicely risen batter. As to where the lump comes from: you say "chocolate and pear cake". If you have pear pieces in the batter, right under the surface, they can do this. I have certainly seen it happen when the recipe includes fruit pieces in the batter. If there are no pear pieces, my second guess is badly dissolved flour. The directions for this type of cake normally include folding the whites very gently, and generally erring on the side of too little whisking. This could contribute to uneven batter texture, resulting in lumps. In the second case, the cake may have some less-than-pleasant pieces, but will still be mostly good. If it is fruit, the holes are purely a cosmetic problem. So not much harm done either way, unless you are shooting for a prize at a baking competition. <sep> Q: I baked a cake and it has holes in it why? A: each time it happened, there was something just below the hole, let's call it "the lump Q: Was it because the batter was uneven? A: What I think happens is that the lump is too heavy Q: Could it be uneven rising?

Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. Ex Input: CONTEXT: From a cooking perspective any imitation sauce or marinade is never going to deliver the quality that venison has to deliver. We have a massive deer farm close and the price is still ridiculous .My suggestion is that you find a good butcher that will age beef for you on the bone ,or you could age it yourself if you have a climate control area to keep it at the correct temperature. Anything over 30 days on the bone will start to give you the gaming flavour you are craving. Nothing is going to match deer, but aged beef or really any type of cattle (eg buffalo etc) will give you the gaminess if it is aged. Restaurants are getting up to 180 days, which I could only imagine would melt in your mouth but the flavour would be intense. <sep> Q: How can I reproduce a "gamey" flavor? A: From a cooking perspective any imitation sauce or marinade is never going to deliver the quality that venison has to deliver <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Are there any spices or "liquid smoke"-style flavor enhancers that could be comparable? Ex Output: marinade is never going to deliver the quality that venison has to deliver Ex Input: CONTEXT: I probably would not recommend eating a box of baking soda and chasing that with shots of vinegar. But aside from that silliness, I can't think of a single thing that is actual "food" that is unsafe mixed with another actual "food", assuming reasonable quantities. Certainly anything with alcohol can be dangerous in huge quantities, as can a lot of other ingredients. Allergies or food sensitivities can make certain ingredients dangerous to certain people. But mixing ingredients to which the individual has no special sensitivity and in normal quantities? No, I don't think you are risking anything by doing so other than unpleasant food. <sep> Q: How safe is it to combine flavor extracts? A: mixing ingredients to which the individual has no special sensitivity and in normal quantities Q: Should I avoid mixing any particular extracts with each other? A: I can't think of a single thing that is actual "food" that is unsafe mixed with another actual "food <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Should I avoid adding extracts to any foods Ex Output: I don't think you are risking anything by doing so Ex Input: CONTEXT: Personally the only way I've ever achieved a good suspension of vanilla in my Brûlée's is by cooking the custard over a bain-marie until thick and... custard like. Once it's nice and thick I'll then pour it into my molds and then bake them for 10-15 min at around 110°c just to finish off. Be very careful not to over cook them the last thing you want, after all that stirring over the bain-marie, is curdled eggs. The extra thickness of your custard helps stop the vanilla seeds sinking to the bottom. However, you will still get a little sink-age.The trick for Pannacotta, is to stir them as they begin to set. Or to whip them after they have set and then stick them back in their molds and chill again. This also helps make your Pannacotta lighter and aerated. <sep> Q: Is there a way to forestall vanilla bean marrow falling to bottom of crème? A: Personally the only way I've ever achieved a good suspension of vanilla in my Brûlée's is by cooking the custard over a bain-marie until thick and... custard like <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Do they fall to the bottom once in the oven? Ex Output:
The extra thickness of your custard helps stop the vanilla seeds sinking to the bottom. However, you will still get a little sink-age

Detailed Instructions: Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. See one example below: Problem: CONTEXT: What I've done in the past is mist some water on both sides of the bread slices, then put them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds (alternatively, an oven set at 300F/150C for 5-10 minutes will do it too).Experiment with the amount of water (but keep it low) and cooking times. You should get much softer (and warm) bread slices out of it. <sep> Q: How do I make whole multi grain bread softer? A: mist some water on both sides of the bread slices <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Does that make it soggy? Solution: Experiment with the amount of water (but keep it low) Explanation: Here the follow-up question asks about a way to make the bread softer. The answer (Experiment with the amount of water) is mentioned in the passage. Problem: CONTEXT: You could use the corkscrew in its classic role. Bore a hole, and then use the corkscrew to pull the sugar out in one piece.You should probably lay the tub on its side for this, as the sugar weight is probably too much to stay on the corkscrew.The other option, though rather extreme, is to cut away the plastic tub with wire cutters or shears. That way, you're peeling the tub away, and will be left with the same lump, but no tub. <sep> Q: How can I extract palm sugar from a container? A: You could use the corkscrew in its classic role. Bore a hole, and then use the corkscrew to pull the sugar out in one piece Q: the corkscrew doesnt break it up. is there anything else? A: though rather extreme, is to cut away the plastic tub with wire cutters or shears <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: any other suggestions or tips? Solution:
lay the tub on its side

Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. Ex Input: CONTEXT: Traditional goulash is a stew/soup, usually using a cheaper cut of meat suited to slow cooking. It usually contains potatoes and other vegetables, as well as noodles. A true stroganoff consists of paprika-dusted fillet steak quickly pan fried with mushrooms and onions in a sour cream and brandy sauce. It is usually served with rice.I understand that in the US stroganoff can also refer to a stew made with similar ingredients as the traditional dish, and is served with noodles. This, coupled with the shared use of paprika, is evidently where the line blurs. <sep> Q: What's the difference between stroganoff and goulash? A: Traditional goulash is a stew/soup, usually using a cheaper cut of meat suited to slow cooking <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Does goulash contain sour cream? Ex Output: It usually contains potatoes and other vegetables, as well as noodles Ex Input: CONTEXT: Broth is usually defined as having had bones/meat/veg boiled in it, so the dictionary says no. The lack of flavour also says no, and I doubt reducing it would make much difference. You could use the water to make broth or stock, if you have bones/vegetables to hand.What's more likely to have happened is that condensation dripped into the water. This will always happen unless you take steps to prevent it, as the chicken is cooler than the steam, causing water to condense on the surface (more obvious with steaming green veg). This water dripping would carry small amounts of protein (e.g. myoglobin from dark meat) into the water, and it doesn't take much of many proteins to make water cloudy (this is why milk is white, or a few drops of milk make water cloudy). Small particles of fat will also contribute if they run into the water. <sep> Q: Water came out cloudy after steaming chicken, is it cosidered a broth?###I was surprised since the chicken never touched the water but I guess it dropped some of its juices in it, I was doing a small batch and I tried to taste it but after adding some salt it just tasted salty,### so If I make a larger batch in less water and the result comes out more concentrated could this taste good and be considered a broth ? A: What's more likely to have happened is that condensation dripped into the water Q: Whats considered a broth then? A: Broth is usually defined as having had bones/meat/veg boiled in it <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Any suggestions for me? Ex Output: You could use the water to make broth or stock, if you have bones/vegetables to hand Ex Input: CONTEXT: The best way that I have found to cook okra, and prevent it from being slimy is to avoid cooking it with moisture.If you dredge it in seasoned cornmeal, then pan fry it, you get none of the slime that is common to okra.I haven't done any tests to verify if a quick fry would then prevent it from developing slime if you then add liquid, however. If you're trying to add the okra to a soup or a sauce, you might still need to spend some time cooking it to break down the slime. <sep> Q: How do I quickly get okra to stop being goopy? A: The best way that I have found to cook okra, and prevent it from being slimy is to avoid cooking it with moisture Q: What is the best cooking method? A: you dredge it in seasoned cornmeal, then pan fry it, you get none of the slime that is common to okra <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What causes the slime to form? Ex Output:
moisture

Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. question: CONTEXT: If the yeast isn't out of date then the most likely sounding culprit is the temperature of your water. It should be between 105-110. If it's too cool then you won't activate the yeast and if you get it too warm you'll start to kill it.Another possible case can be when you're adding the salt. If it's going in before or at the same time as the sugar you will arrest the gas production and activity of the yeast.Get the yeast, sugar, water mixture going first and create a shaggy dough with your flour. Add the salt as you're starting to bring the dough together so that it doesn't act too quickly to arrest the yeast development.If you keep your flour in the freezer or refrigerator, make sure it has come to room temperature before adding it to the water or the chill of the flour will de-activate the yeast. <sep> Q: How do I get my pizza dough to rise? A: If the yeast isn't out of date then the most likely sounding culprit is the temperature of your water Q: What temperature should the water be? A: It should be between 105-110 <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What else do I need to consider answer: Another possible case can be when you're adding the salt. If it's going in before or at the same time as the sugar you will arrest the gas production and activity of the yeast question: CONTEXT: There is a significant difference in how the two operate.Turkish coffee works by heating the water to a boil, with no added pressure. The coffee, with gronds, is then transferred into a cup to seethe, before drinking.In a mocha pot, pressure will typically rise to as much as 1.5 bar, and the resulting liquid is free of grounds.Given the radically different extraction methods, the end result of the two are likely to be radically different. My experience, taken from memory, follows:Turkish coffee goes through a sequence of mouth feels, from completely clear, to grainy, almost muddy, with coffee grounds. This also affects the flavour of the coffee. At the beginning, it is much like a strong filter brew, but tends to get bitter towards the end of the cup, which is also, in part, why it is traditionally served in very small cups. In addition, it is often spiced with cardamom, and often sweetened with sugar.Coffee from a mocha pot has a consistent mouth feel all the way through the cup, as the grounds are left in the pot. Due to the pressurised extraction, the flavour notes are closer to an espresso than filter coffee. <sep> Q: Is there a significant difference between Turkish coffee and Moka pot coffee? A: Given the radically different extraction methods, the end result of the two are likely to be radically different Q: Since the Turkish coffee and the Moka pot both work by boiling/steaming the coffee, so assuming they are from the same bean, is there a significant difference between the two? A: Coffee from a mocha pot has a consistent mouth feel all the way through the cup, as the grounds are left in the pot <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: How else would you described the difference between the two? answer: Turkish coffee works by heating the water to a boil, with no added pressure question: CONTEXT: Traditionally, mozzarella is sold extremely fresh - as in made that day or the day before. If it's held for more than a day or so, it comes packaged in a brine. Most of the American stuff is just too soft to be held for packaging like other shredded cheese in the mega-mart.In the US, being extreme gluttons for convenience, we tend to make do with part-skim shredded mozzarella instead of the good stuff. Slight temperature variations can make the shreds stick together in a globby mass. It's harmless from a safety point of view, and the expiry date can be long after the occurrence of perfectly safe globbiness.Pro-Tip: Put the globby pieces in the freezer for 20 minutes, and then shred it like a block of harder cheese. Upon heating, it will melt (almost) as if the the globbiness had never happened. I have taken advantage of a few good sales that way. Mozzarella will become... ehem... colorful before it becomes unsafe. While this answer is more for mozzerella than for other types of cheese; the last paragraph works for any mega-mart shredded cheese. <sep> Q: Why would unopened shredded cheese get soggy in the fridge? A: Slight temperature variations can make the shreds stick together in a globby mass Q: Is this normal? A: It's harmless from a safety point of view <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Is it safe to use the soggy parts? answer:
It's harmless from a safety point of view, and the expiry date can be long after the occurrence of perfectly safe globbiness

Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. Ex Input: CONTEXT: You can wait as long as you need to between pre-cook (that's the simmering) and finish (the steaming), it's how things work in restaurants.The steaming time will only go up if you let the temperature drop appreciably. Even so, you shouldn't need more than an extra minute or so. Steaming is pretty benign to rice.As far as the safety concerns...if you keep the temperature above 135 F, you are out of the danger zone, and you can hold there forever. The danger zone is 41 to 135 F, but the goal in cooling foods is to get it from hot to cool in 6 hours...below 70 in two, and then 4 hours to make it below 41 (yes, I'm ServSafe certified). So your hypothetical 30-45 minutes shouldn't cause you a problem. But watch it if you start going long. <sep> Q: How long can I hold brown rice between boiling and steaming?###I use a technique from Cooks Illustrated for cooking my brown rice. I simmer for 25 minutes and then steam for 10. It gets a nice consistent result. But how long can I hold the rice between simmering and steaming? A: You can wait as long as you need to between pre-cook (that's the simmering) and finish (the steaming), it's how things work in restaurants Q: Would I need to increase the steam time? A: The steaming time will only go up if you let the temperature drop appreciably. Even so, you shouldn't need more than an extra minute or so. Steaming is pretty benign to rice Q: Are there any safety concerns? A: if you keep the temperature above 135 F, you are out of the danger zone, and you can hold there forever <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Does it matter if it sits out for 30 - 45 minutes before finishing? Ex Output: 30-45 minutes shouldn't cause you a problem. But watch it if you start going long Ex Input: CONTEXT: Garlic roasted as a head, as unpeeled cloves, or as peeled cloves is all much the same. It is just easier to handle unpeeled, and even easier when kept as a headFor easy results just trim the excess paper skin and roots of a whole garlic head, carefully trim just the tops of most of the clovesDon't drizzle with oil and wrap in foil, this will just make a mess, and steam them more than roast them. Garlic is already very oily, it shouldn't need any more. Roasting items should be exposed to dry heat, not steamRoast until soft and medium-dark brown. When cooled slightly, pull cloves apart and lay them out on a board. Squeeze out each clove using a firm spatula or other blunt tool. This should not be too messy. Wear disposable gloves if you don't like garlic on your hands <sep> Q: What's the easiest way to roast a large amount of garlic? A: For easy results just trim the excess paper skin and roots of a whole garlic head, carefully trim just the tops of most of the cloves <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Will it effect the taste if I roast an entire head of garlic instead of roasting peeled cloves? Ex Output: It is just easier to handle unpeeled, and even easier when kept as a head Ex Input: CONTEXT: Yes, you can use eggs well past their "sell by" date. A week past shouldn't have a noticeable difference.The older the eggs get, the more evaporation that will take place (because the eggs are washed, so they don't have a protective layer).You will notice in older eggs that there's a growing pocket of air inside the egg when you break them. (for me it tends to be on the more rounded end, but I don't know if it has to do with how you orient the eggs in storage).I know that I've used eggs more than a month past the "sell by" date, and I wouldn't be surprised if I've gone two months. It's only really a problem in baking, as the egg whites won't contribute the same amount of moisture as if they were fresh. And maybe for hard boiled eggs if you want them pretty, as you'll end up with a void where the air pocket is. <sep> Q: How long can refrigerated eggs last past their date? A: I know that I've used eggs more than a month past the "sell by" date, and I wouldn't be surprised if I've gone two months <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: how can you tell if they are bad? Ex Output:
You will notice in older eggs that there's a growing pocket of air inside the egg when you break them

It is pretty common to alternate wet and dry as a way of getting things evenly mixed and avoiding lumps, so it's possible it's a variation on that. The paste might be too thick to easily mix into the wet, but also wet enough that it'd tend to stay as a lump if you mix it straight into the dry, so alternating wet-dry-paste might get you more even mixing? But if you're able to mix the paste smoothly into the wet, it's completely fine to just do that. <sep> Q: Why should I pre-mix baking soda into 2 tsp of milk when making cookies?

Problem: CONTEXT: I would cook the Brie at that same temperature for 30-35 minutes and it should be okay.Alternatively, you could cook the roast fully, remove it from the oven, tent it with foil and then cook the Brie. The meat can rest while the Brie is cooking and being eaten. Prior to slicing the roast, heat up the pan drippings to a sizzling temp and baste to ensure a crispy crust. But if the appetizer course happens to last for 20-30 minutes, then the roast will have been resting for 40-50 minutes and could lose too much internal heat. <sep> Q: How to adjust an oven to accommodate two items with different cook times and temperatures? A: I would Q: A roast and brie as an appetizer A: I would cook the Brie at that same temperature for 30-35 minutes and it should be okay <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Should the brie be served watm or cold?###warm ooops

instruction: Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. question: CONTEXT: In the US, I normally see them marketed as "heirloom" tomatoes; I don't know if there are specific regulations in the UK or Finland that might have restrictions on the term's use. (like there now is in the US with "organic" )Because they weren't developed for industrialized farming, they didn't focus on breeding in traits that were desired for mass production -- size, round shape, bright color, shelf life, durability in transport.As such, there's a much wider variety, and they tend to be locally grown on small farms (as they don't tend to transport well, or be suitable for mechanized production). They might've been bred for sweetness, tartness, number of fruit per plant, disease resistance, etc, so you can't say that heirlooms necessarily taste better; a locally grown, picked that day non-heirloom tomato might taste just as good.To make this clear -- very few vegetables are produced in a truly 'uncontrolled' environment (maybe 'less controlled' environment)-- humans have been selecting for specific traits for centuries; it's just that the processes used were much less high-tech back then -- you saved the seeds from plants that produced what you liked, it's possible that some might've even been hand-pollinated to cross breed cultivars.) <sep> Q: What makes a tomato "heirloom"? A: They might've been bred for sweetness, tartness, number of fruit per plant, disease resistance <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What is the difference between heirloom and conventional tomatoes? answer: they weren't developed for industrialized farming, they didn't focus on breeding in traits that were desired for mass production question: CONTEXT: Honestly, all three of those will crisp up very quickly, and just about any ratio will produce a crispy end product. The blend may be for textural reasons; potato starch is typically very fine and produces a tempura-like shell, while rice flour can have little bits of individual rice grains which produces a "chunkier" texture.I probably wouldn't try to use pure starch as it will brown and burn very easily, but you probably don't even need all three ingredients. Personally, I'd start with a 50/50 blend of potato starch and rice flour and adjust from there. You could use tapioca starch instead of potato if it's easier for you to find locally, but definitely keep rice flour in the mix. <sep> Q: what flour Blend should I use for Seoul Chicken? A: just about any ratio will produce a crispy end product Q: The chef in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD97u0OUbBo uses a blend of tapioca starch, potato starch, and rice flour for his dredge. A: potato starch is typically very fine and produces a tempura-like shell <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Any ideas what ratio would be optimal for getting a crispy wing? answer: Personally, I'd start with a 50/50 blend of potato starch and rice flour and adjust from there question: CONTEXT: Watt specifies the power of the device.Power is defined as energy per unit time. So watt is how quickly your device consumes energy.If it is an efficient device it will convert more of consumed electricity into heat. So given two equally efficient devices the higher watt one will produce more heat faster and can therefore cook faster than the less watt one.And the third part of your question has already been answered above. Yes, higher watt device will consume more electric power. <sep> Q: what does watt specify in induction stove A: Watt specifies the power of the device Q: Does a higher watt induction stove implies that the cooking will be faster? A: So given two equally efficient devices the higher watt one will produce more heat faster and can therefore cook faster than the less watt one <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Is electricity consumption of higher watt induction stove higher? answer:

Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. CONTEXT: Ok, first of all make sure you are getting French or Italian truffles, not Chinese or Oregon. Some people like the latter but they are quite a bit different. Black truffles do well cooked, while white truffles are usually only used shaved raw over a dish. When I use them, I like to use them in a situation where I will really be able to taste them. A few classic ideas are an omelette, risotto, or pasta with a cream sauce. Those all carry the flavor and aroma of truffles very well. Chop some of it very fine and put it in the dish and then slice the rest paper thin (with a mandoline if possible) over the finished food right before serving. <sep> Q: What should I look out for when cooking with truffles? A: Black truffles do well cooked, while white truffles are usually only used shaved raw over a dish <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: How should they be handled while cooking with them? Chop some of it very fine and put it in the dish and then slice the rest paper thin CONTEXT: First off, when reheating soup, it won't matter much. If you get the pan too hot before you add the soup, you could get some spattering, but that's about it.As for making a fresh batch, there are those who believe that browning the ingredients before adding the liquids will develop more flavor. This will be a lot easier to do with a hot pan, than trying to get a cold pan full of stuff up to a heat sufficient to cause browning. Overall, it's a tradeoff. If you're in a hurry, it might be worth saving the few minutes to just throw everything in the pan and heat it up. If you really want to develop every last bit of flavor, you'll probably be better off heating your pan, browning ingredients, then adding liquid. <sep> Q: When I'm cooking, should I heat the pot first or is it okay to heat it up with food already in it? A: t off Q: If I'm making a fresh pot of soup, should I heat the pot first? A: First off, when reheating soup, it won't matter much. If you get the pan too hot before you add the soup, you could get some spattering, but that's about it <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What type of vegetables should heat first? browning the ingredients before adding the liquids will develop more flavor. T CONTEXT: Steaming generally doesn't make meat juicier -- it is just as easy to dry out a piece of meat with wet heat as it is with dry heat, if not easier.There are two things that you can do to make your turkey juicier. The first is a brine, which Elendil suggests above. The second is to make sure you aren't overcooking. I'd suggest using a probe thermometer and pulling the tenderloin when it is at around 160F and letting it coast to your target temperature of 165F. <sep> Q: How can you make turkey juicier?

Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. Input: Consider Input: CONTEXT: In my experience, rice can be cooked in any pot. I cook quite a lot of Japanese style dishes, and as far as I can tell the rice is cooked in the same way as any other.For myself, I've done it in good "induction-able" steel pots, as well as huge (navy galley) aluminium pots, and a couple of low-quality stainless steel things too. They're all fine.Normally, as soon as the pot is at/near boiling, turn the heat down to a low setting and leave it in the pot until it's ready. Then take it off the heat, but leave it covered (don't peek) for another five minutes.Generally, once you've added the water, you put the lid on. You only start the timer when it's boiled and you turn it down, though. That's probably why a glass lid is better, so you can see the boiling. It's not critical to the process, though. <sep> Q: Do I need a specific pot to cook Japanese-style rice? A: In my experience, rice can be cooked in any pot. I cook quite a lot of Japanese style dishes, and as far as I can tell the rice is cooked in the same way as any other <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Do you suggest a certain method? Output: For myself, I've done it in good "induction-able" steel pots, as well as huge (navy galley) aluminium pots, and a couple of low-quality stainless steel things too. They're all fine Input: Consider Input: CONTEXT: The short answer is yes, you can. We keep a wide variety of cheeses on hand. Quesadilla or Chihuahua Mexican cheeses are a great substitute for Mozzarella or Provolone cheese. The have a light flavor and work well with Italian foods. We always have these on hand, but they are not always easy to find in some areas. I often substitute simply because, while I might have the intended cheese on hand, there may be some that I need to use sooner than others depending on how long I've had them or how long they've been open. With mild cheeses, you don't have to worry about the flavor profile so much - it's more the melting. And the cheeses I mentioned melt well - just like Mozzarella or Provolone.And to let you know, the reason I tried the other cheeses: I asked in a Mexican restaurant what kind of cheese they used and was told that it was "like American Mozzarella". So, I decided to experiment.All said and done, all of these cheeses have a mild flavor and work in many dishes, regardless of the ethnicity. What you do want to stay away from are cheeses that don't melt well and are designed to keep their shape and texture under heat. One example would be quest fresco. <sep> Q: Mexican cheeses on otherwise Italian pizza A: The short answer is yes, you can. We keep a wide variety of cheeses on hand. Quesadilla or Chihuahua Mexican cheeses are a great substitute for Mozzarella or Provolone cheese Q: Does a Mexican cheese change the flavour very much? A: With mild cheeses, you don't have to worry about the flavor profile so much - it's more the melting. And the cheeses I mentioned melt well - just like Mozzarella or Provolone <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: can you recommend a mix of cheeses?

Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. question: CONTEXT: Yes, you can use eggs well past their "sell by" date. A week past shouldn't have a noticeable difference.The older the eggs get, the more evaporation that will take place (because the eggs are washed, so they don't have a protective layer).You will notice in older eggs that there's a growing pocket of air inside the egg when you break them. (for me it tends to be on the more rounded end, but I don't know if it has to do with how you orient the eggs in storage).I know that I've used eggs more than a month past the "sell by" date, and I wouldn't be surprised if I've gone two months. It's only really a problem in baking, as the egg whites won't contribute the same amount of moisture as if they were fresh. And maybe for hard boiled eggs if you want them pretty, as you'll end up with a void where the air pocket is. <sep> Q: How long can refrigerated eggs last past their date? A: A week past shouldn't have a noticeable difference Q: I have some eggs that expired last week, so will they still be OK to cook with? A: It's only really a problem in baking, as the egg whites won't contribute the same amount of moisture as if they were fresh <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Do they last past their expiration date if they are refrigerated? answer: you can use eggs well past their "sell by" date. A week past shouldn't have a noticeable difference question: CONTEXT: If the yeast isn't out of date then the most likely sounding culprit is the temperature of your water. It should be between 105-110. If it's too cool then you won't activate the yeast and if you get it too warm you'll start to kill it.Another possible case can be when you're adding the salt. If it's going in before or at the same time as the sugar you will arrest the gas production and activity of the yeast.Get the yeast, sugar, water mixture going first and create a shaggy dough with your flour. Add the salt as you're starting to bring the dough together so that it doesn't act too quickly to arrest the yeast development.If you keep your flour in the freezer or refrigerator, make sure it has come to room temperature before adding it to the water or the chill of the flour will de-activate the yeast. <sep> Q: Why does my pizza dough rise so inconsistently?

Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. CONTEXT: I'm specifically answering your question "Is it okay to use a microwave in convection mode without the turntable?" -- Yes.Your own answer points out the reality that if a pan is too large then the turn table will simply hit the sides of the microwave oven and then stop turning. There is nothing wrong with this. There is nothing wrong or damaging to have a metal tin touch the metal sides of your oven.How was your baked items bottom? If you can sit your tin up so there is air flow under your tin, then you will improve the baking efficiency and it will bake more evenly.CAUTION: If anyone else is reading this question and wondering about their own machine, then you really need to take caution about the "convention only" mode. You have to make sure there are NO microwaves in this mode or else your metal will conduct and you could have a serious explosion or break your microwave oven. <sep> Q: Is it okay to use a microwave in convection mode without the turntable? A: There is nothing wrong or damaging to have a metal tin touch the metal sides of your oven <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What is a damaging situation for my microwave ? There is nothing wrong or damaging to have a metal tin touch the metal sides of your oven CONTEXT: No, it won't work. Michael's comment explains why. Whipping cream is not just fat and water mixed, it is fat and water emulsified. This is a big difference. If you had some special reason to do this on a regular basis, you could get it to work by adding emulsifiers. You can beat any fat with water and lecithine or xanthan and get a creamy result. As far as I know, this is how plant based cream substitutes work. But if the issue is that you just don't have whipping cream right now at home, then it is easier to go buy whipping cream than to go find emulsifiers (I buy mine online, don't know if there are brick-and-mortar B2C stores which sell them). If for some reason you absolutely can't do it in time, I would suggest using a different filling. Pastry cream works well with millefeulle, buttercream can work too, lightened with whipped eggwhites if necessary. <sep> Q: Could I add butter to single cream to make whipped/double cream? A: it won't work Q: If I added butter to single cream and whipped it, would that add enough butterfat to it to make it suitable for whipping? A: Whipping cream is not just fat and water mixed, it is fat and water emulsified Q: What is the best way to make whipping cream from cream? A: you could get it to work by adding emulsifiers Q: What are good emulsifiers to add to single cream, if I want to make whipping cream? A: lecithine or xanthan <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What are some sources of lecithine and xanthan? I buy mine online, don't know if there are brick-and-mortar B2C stores which sell them CONTEXT: Adding herbs directly to baked goods usually results in very strong flavours. Infusing the sugar with the herbs gives a more subtle overtone rather than a full-on explosion. In some cases, of course, you might want a strong herb flavour, but where you just want a hint, infusing the sugar is great. The classic example is using stripped vanilla pods to make vanilla sugar, which adds subtle vanilla tones to cakes and meringues. <sep> Q: When and why would one infuse flavor into sugar for baking? A: where you just want a hint, infusing the sugar is great <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Why not just add the ingredient directly into the recipe?

If you look for rose petal recipes, you will find many creative uses of them, including rice pudding with roses - so your pudding intuition was correct. During colonial American times they were considered a treat. You can candy rose petals with egg whites and sugar - typical cautions about appropriate raw egg white useage applies.Before using your rose petals in culinary applications, make sure to remember what chemicals you used on them.

Example Output: If they've been sprayed with pesticides, you don't want to be eating them Example Input: CONTEXT: There are a couple of things you can do to prevent sugar crystallising. You can add some glucose syrup, or you can 'invert' the sugar by adding some acid, namely cream of tartar. Both should be readily available, online if not at your supermarket. Cream of tartar is also useful when making meringue. <sep> Q: How can I prevent simple syrup from crystallizing? A: ou can add some glucose syrup, or you can 'invert' the sugar by adding some acid, n <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: what sort of acid would you recommend? Example Output: cream of tartar Example Input: CONTEXT: Traditional goulash is a stew/soup, usually using a cheaper cut of meat suited to slow cooking. It usually contains potatoes and other vegetables, as well as noodles. A true stroganoff consists of paprika-dusted fillet steak quickly pan fried with mushrooms and onions in a sour cream and brandy sauce. It is usually served with rice.I understand that in the US stroganoff can also refer to a stew made with similar ingredients as the traditional dish, and is served with noodles. This, coupled with the shared use of paprika, is evidently where the line blurs. <sep> Q: What's the difference between stroganoff and goulash?

The answer (Experiment with the amount of water) is mentioned in the passage. Now, solve this instance: CONTEXT: Cooked foods are starting with a very low bacterial count, because the cooking process killed everything. Defrosting foods are starting from an unknown count, because they picked up some during the cooling process before they were frozen. Bacteria multiplies exponentially, so the starting point matters greatly.I'm glad you asked for theories because I don't have anything to back this up. <sep> Q: Why can't food be left out to defrost? A: Cooked foods are starting with a very low bacterial count, because the cooking process killed everything <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What is the best way to defrost food, then? Student:

instruction: Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. question: CONTEXT: Probably not. Cans are generally marked at point of filling, not at point of manufacturingThe plastic liner looks plastic'y in all cases, it's very hard to tell. Epoxy is harder than other plastics, but there are epoxies that are BPA free anywayAluminium cans are more likely have a epoxy liner that will give off a trace of BPAMany steel cans do not use epoxy or other BPA plasticsHaving said that the tested BPA release from a can is 100's of times lower than the recommended maximum daily dose. So in theory there is nothing to really worry aboutThe common sense answer is, if epoxy dissolved into the cans contents they wouldn't use it would they. The whole reason it's there is to stop the contents 'eating' the can <sep> Q: Is there a definitive way to know if a tin can is lined with BPA? A: Probably not. Cans are generally marked at point of filling, not at point of manufacturing <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Is there any sign of BPA just from looking at the inside of the can? answer: The plastic liner looks plastic'y in all cases, it's very hard to tel question: CONTEXT: The old thin utensils were made of Nylon.The reasons they are hard to find is that traditional Nylon is difficult to manufacture within food standard guidelines for PAA (Primary Aromatic Amines) migration, and does not bio-degrade or burn safely. For relevant references, your local government health department will have papers on PAA migration.Given that, many utensil manufactures have moved on to other plastics, mostly silicone. Though some use PA66 (Nylon 6,6), which is that thick chunky black plastic stuff.Try wooden spatulas. They are simple, clean, disposable, and you can get them in thin wedge shapes (e.g. at Asian supply shops). <sep> Q: Where did the thin, smooth plastic spatulas go? A: The reasons they are hard to find is that traditional Nylon is difficult to manufacture within food standard guidelines for PAA <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Why did manufacturers stop making thin, smooth plastic turner spatulas? answer: The old thin utensils were made of Nylon question: CONTEXT: The answer depends on where you live, and what type you have brought.In many countries that import chickpeas they heat treat them to kill seed-borne diseases and insects. The heat treatment process makes them more difficult to cook, and soaking times double or triple.Beans from exporters with phytosanitary certificates can be imported without heat treatment; these are the ones you want to get.I don't think you can tell which is which by looking at them. At the moment we have some particularly dark, dry, and dead looking beans that soak up beautifully in 8 hours!Soak non-heat treated beans for 8 to 12 hours, heat treated beans for 24 to 36 hours. Some overly heat treated beans will never fully revive, and you are best to return these to the shop as "faulty".Soak and cook without salt, unless you are going to mash them. They fall apart more readily if salted.If you are not mashing them, the secret to great chickpea taste is after soaking and cooking in water, is to lightly fry them with a little olive oil until dark spot appear, keep them or the pan moving so none burn. Then add the sauce, or add them to whatever dish you are preparing. <sep> Q: How should I prepare dried chickpeas?###I've never used dried chickpeas before, but I'm not wanting for chickpea recipes. The bag of dried chickpeas I got contains no instructions for cooking. I know that I need to soak them in water for a period X and then cook them for a period Y. A: The answer depends on where you live, and what type you have brought <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: how long should I soak them before cooking? answer:
I don't think you can tell which is which by looking at them. At the moment we have some particularly dark, dry, and dead looking beans that soak up beautifully in 8 hours

Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. -------- Question: CONTEXT: Yes, it can go bad.It's pretty much the same as the way flour can go bad: the fats can go rancid. Grains are mostly starch, but they contain enough fat for rancidity to be a noticeable problem. There's a huge amount of variability in how long that takes, though. If it's airtight and kept in a cool, dark place, it'll last much longer than the best before date. But if it's been exposed to air, light, or heat, it can go pretty fast, perhaps even before the best before date.So, smell it. If you detect any unpleasant smells, you probably don't want to eat it. Even if you don't smell anything obvious, it could still be subtly rancid, so if you're planning on serving it to anyone, you might want to cook a small bit to test. <sep> Q: Does polenta 'go off'? A: it can go bad <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: I think mine is a family heirloom. The best before date has passed. Will it taste bad? Answer: It's pretty much the same as the way flour can go bad: the fats can go rancid Question: CONTEXT: Leaving any sort of sugar confection in the fridge (as it will out of the fridge also, but to a lesser extent) will soften the sugar after a prolonged period due to the moisture in the air. However, putting it in the fridge for a short period of time will simply speed up the cooling process as you put in your question. <sep> Q: Can I cool my toffee in the fridge? A: Leaving any sort of sugar confection in the fridge (as it will out of the fridge also, but to a lesser extent) will soften the sugar after a prolonged period Q: is cooling the toffee in the fridge as good as room temperature? A: putting it in the fridge for a short period of time will simply speed up the cooling process <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: does putting it in the fridge speed up the cooling process? Answer: will simply speed up the cooling process as you put in your question Question: CONTEXT: I assume you're making normal maki (nori side out) and not California rolls.Are you leaving a 1/2 inch or so of blank nori (no rice) on the outside edge (the edge that you roll last)? If you slightly wet the bare edge of the nori with a little water on your finger it should help it stick together. <sep> Q: How do I stop sushi rolls from opening up? A: leaving a 1/2 inch or so of blank nori (no rice) on the outside edge Q: What is causing that to happen? A: I assume you're making normal maki (nori side out) and not California rolls <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Do the ingredients make a difference? Answer:

Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. [Q]: CONTEXT: Vegetables don't ripen. Carrots, potatoes, leafy greens, etc...They will get bigger of course and some veggies will get more bitter or woody with age. Greens will get bitter.Generally speaking veggies are better young. Carrots are particularly sweet and tender when young. Potatoes are also perfectly fine at any size.The possible exceptions would be the fruits that are labelled vegetables for cooking purposes like some squashes and tomatoes. These do need to be ripe and whether they can be ripened after picking will depend on the plant. <sep> Q: Do vegetables ripen like fruit? A: Vegetables don't ripen Q: Is the growing of a vegetable different from a fruit's? A: The possible exceptions would be the fruits that are labelled vegetables for cooking purposes like some squashes and tomatoes <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: I could pick a carrot up from the dirt whenever, and eat it, but I would never do that to a strawberry. [A]: These do need to be ripe [Q]: CONTEXT: A pizza stone in a normal oven will only get the maximum temperature of the oven (probably not more than 280 ºC / 530 ºF).A specific pizza oven will gett hotter (the one you linked gets 390 ºC / 735 ºF and, indeed has a stone inside).If you want to get Italian style pizzas, go for the pizza oven. They need that high temperature in order to be ready in (ideally) 90 seconds. Those Ferrari ovens are one of Italian's favourite ones, albeit they'll need a bit more time than 1.5 minutes achievable in wood fired traditional pizza ovens. You (probably) won't be able to achieve those high temperatures with a normal home kitchen oven, unless you have a pyrolytic home oven, and hack it in order to cook in it during the pyrolysis cycle.As for the waiting time between pizzas using a stone, consider it as a capacitor (or a rechargeable battery): It takes heat (until is soaked up), and then gives it back. Once you make 1 pizza (or a loaf of bread), it needs to soak (a bit) again. <sep> Q: Differences between the oven stone and the pizza oven? A: A pizza stone in a normal oven will only get the maximum temperature of the oven <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Which tastes better? [A]: If you want to get Italian style pizzas, go for the pizza oven [Q]: CONTEXT: As long as they aren't spoiled they'll be fine for a crumble/crisp/cobbler. You'll want to have someone else taste them to make sure first. They may need less sugar and less or no precooking. If they are really, really mushy then you might want to add some firmer plums or other fruit to give some texture. <sep> Q: Are mushy plums OK to use in cooking? A: As long as they aren't spoiled they'll be fine for a crumble/crisp/cobbler <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: ]I have some plums that have started to go soft and squishy. How do I know if they are spoiled? [A]:
You'll want to have someone else taste them to make sure first

Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. [Q]: CONTEXT: First off, when reheating soup, it won't matter much. If you get the pan too hot before you add the soup, you could get some spattering, but that's about it.As for making a fresh batch, there are those who believe that browning the ingredients before adding the liquids will develop more flavor. This will be a lot easier to do with a hot pan, than trying to get a cold pan full of stuff up to a heat sufficient to cause browning. Overall, it's a tradeoff. If you're in a hurry, it might be worth saving the few minutes to just throw everything in the pan and heat it up. If you really want to develop every last bit of flavor, you'll probably be better off heating your pan, browning ingredients, then adding liquid. <sep> Q: When I'm cooking, should I heat the pot first or is it okay to heat it up with food already in it? A: t off Q: If I'm making a fresh pot of soup, should I heat the pot first? A: First off, when reheating soup, it won't matter much. If you get the pan too hot before you add the soup, you could get some spattering, but that's about it <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What type of vegetables should heat first? [A]: browning the ingredients before adding the liquids will develop more flavor. T [Q]: CONTEXT: There are good quality vegan margarines (Earth balance, Alsan) on the market nowadays, often they are of the interesterified instead of the hydrogenated variety. They are designed to behave and taste similar to butter instead of (as many cheap margarines seem to do) staying spreadable at temperatures where butter would be very firm. Unlike pure coconut or palm oil, they do not act very brittle when cold, and also they soften gradually instead of suddenly melting like eutectic solder. These should be on the top of the list of things to try...Also, some recipes recommend using more than one type of fat in pastry, for more interesting texture (eg such margarine, and smaller flakes of a hardened coconut fat). <sep> Q: Are there any butter alternatives for baking pastry? A: There are good quality vegan margarines (Earth balance, Alsan) on the market nowadays, often they are of the interesterified instead of the hydrogenated variety <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Would that give the dough the same consistency as when I use butter?

Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. Q: CONTEXT: Everyone gave thoughtful and helpful answers, but when I went to get to cooking this weekend, I discovered that the problem I've been experiencing was actually another issue altogether. My problem was undercooking, plain and simple. I did incorporate Dani and ChernoffDad's techniques, and I can't say that they didn't help. However, the samples I tasted partway through cooking were not unlike my typical results. It was after extended cooking that these guys really softened up to my liking. <sep> Q: What is the trick to making fluffy matzo balls? A: extended cooking <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Is this the way to make them light and fluffy? A: My problem was undercooking, plain and simple **** Q: CONTEXT: The "solid vegetable oil" you're describing sounds like Crisco (shortening), which you can find in any US grocery. You could also try refined coconut or palm kernel oil, both of which are solid at room temperature.Another possibility to note is that the butter may be fine, but maybe the chickpea flour you're obtaining in the US is different. <sep> Q: What's the best replacement for "solid vegetable oil" in pastry recipes? A: u ca <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Can you help me find a replacement for the solid vegetable oil in a Persion recipe? A: The "solid vegetable oil" you're describing sounds like Crisco (shortening), which you can find in any US grocery **** Q: CONTEXT: Propane and butane are pure alkanes. They don't produce anything nasty when burned. The worst you could possibly get should be carbon monoxide (and I am not even sure it can be produced in a torch, the dioxide ifs much more likely), but it being a gas, it won't stick to your food. The complex molecules you get from heating the food itself have more potential for being harmful than the combustion products of a propane butane torch. Ago yes, it is food safe. Another matter of safety is that it is easier to cause a fire with a hardware store torch, because it has more power than the kitchen ones. But a sensible adult should be able to handle the thing safely. <sep> Q: Is it safe to use a propane torch bought at a Hardware store? A: a sensible adult should be able to handle the thing safely Q: Is there something different about the torches and/or fuel that is sold at a culinary store? A: Propane and butane are pure alkanes <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Are there any precautions I should take when using it for culinary type stuff? A:

I ended up using a combination of everyone's answers.I prepared the meatballs the night before and cooked them in the oven as per usual. I stored them overnight in the fridge in a large ice cream tub, rather than refrigerating the crock. (Thanks for that tip Joe and MargeGunderson.)In the morning, I combined everything in the crock pot and brought it to work. I started the crock pot on low at 8am. Everything was already cooked, so no need to worry there. The meatballs were heated through by noon. (Thanks everyone for the tip on starting early. Thanks nico for the assurance on "mush".)Now, time for lunch! <sep> Q: How long do meatballs in sauce need to be heated in a crock pot?###I'm participating in a pot luck lunch this week. I'm bringing fully cooked meatballs, served in pasta sauce. My plan is to make the meatballs (around 30 - 40) the night before, cook them fully in the oven, and refrigerate them overnight in the crock pot without the sauce. A: started the crock pot on low at 8am. Everything was already cooked, so no need to worry there. The meatballs were heated through by noon Q: What kind of heat should I have the meatballs on?

When I make noodles at home, I almost always start with dashi and fortify with chicken or pork stock. While the aroma of a good dashi is strong, often times it isn't solid enough to feel full-bodied. Try adding other stocks/broths and see where that gets you. Use neckbones and feet if you make your own pork stock. <sep> Q: How can I make a Japanese Restaurant style soup ?

My friend is from Yamagata in Japan and several of her favorite Udon places will make a sturdy broth with dashi as well as pork and chicken stocks CONTEXT: Some crabs are better tasting than others. Ornamental crabs, to my knowledge none are inedible, but tend to be very small, and high skin/seed to flesh so tend to be too much trouble to bother with. Larger crabs though can be very desirable for some applications. They are often blended in mixed ciders, both sweet and fermented. They will be tart to very tart and even bitter, but when blended with other juices add what many people consider a very refreshing bite to the juice. Candied crabs and apple butter are commonly made with them and they can be used for jams other applications especially mixed with other apples to increase tartness.There are a wide variations of varieties, just as with full size apples, and some will seem better than other. If they are wild seedling trees rather than grafter varieties, the quality of the fruit may be hit and miss, and even some of the cultivated named varieties may be astringent, especially some which are marketed for their hard cider characteristics where the astringency is desirable. If the particular ones you have will work will be mostly dependent on your tastes and the variety, and how willing you are to work with the smaller fruit. Even the sweetest crabs are likely to have a lot more tartness than a granny smith. <sep> Q: Are crabapples edible? A: Some crabs are better tasting than others. Ornamental crabs, to my knowledge none are inedible, but tend to be very small, and high skin/seed to flesh so tend to be too much trouble to bother with Q: Are they dangerous to eat?

The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. PROBLEM: CONTEXT: I probably would not recommend eating a box of baking soda and chasing that with shots of vinegar. But aside from that silliness, I can't think of a single thing that is actual "food" that is unsafe mixed with another actual "food", assuming reasonable quantities. Certainly anything with alcohol can be dangerous in huge quantities, as can a lot of other ingredients. Allergies or food sensitivities can make certain ingredients dangerous to certain people. But mixing ingredients to which the individual has no special sensitivity and in normal quantities? No, I don't think you are risking anything by doing so other than unpleasant food. <sep> Q: How safe is it to combine flavor extracts? A: mixing ingredients to which the individual has no special sensitivity and in normal quantities Q: Should I avoid mixing any particular extracts with each other? A: I can't think of a single thing that is actual "food" that is unsafe mixed with another actual "food <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Should I avoid adding extracts to any foods SOLUTION: I don't think you are risking anything by doing so PROBLEM: CONTEXT: Yes, you can use eggs well past their "sell by" date. A week past shouldn't have a noticeable difference.The older the eggs get, the more evaporation that will take place (because the eggs are washed, so they don't have a protective layer).You will notice in older eggs that there's a growing pocket of air inside the egg when you break them. (for me it tends to be on the more rounded end, but I don't know if it has to do with how you orient the eggs in storage).I know that I've used eggs more than a month past the "sell by" date, and I wouldn't be surprised if I've gone two months. It's only really a problem in baking, as the egg whites won't contribute the same amount of moisture as if they were fresh. And maybe for hard boiled eggs if you want them pretty, as you'll end up with a void where the air pocket is. <sep> Q: How long can refrigerated eggs last past their date? A: I know that I've used eggs more than a month past the "sell by" date, and I wouldn't be surprised if I've gone two months <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: how can you tell if they are bad? SOLUTION: You will notice in older eggs that there's a growing pocket of air inside the egg when you break them PROBLEM: CONTEXT: Yes, you can entirely replace water with milk. The main thing to be aware of is how prone it is to boiling over. Milk will eagerly do that on its own, and starchy water will too, so the combination has to be cooked on very low heat to avoid making a huge mess. (I think this is why the original recipe starts with water: less time with potential for boiling over, and more stable temperature when you add the milk.) You'll also probably want to be more careful about stirring the first time; if the heat is a little higher than you realize, you will start accumulating a layer on the bottom of the pan.If you want them to cook faster and have less potential boiling over to worry about, you can always presoak in milk beforehand. I've done this overnight in the fridge, which was enough to let me make (admittedly slightly chewy) steel-cut oats in the microwave the next morning. <sep> Q: Steel Cut Oats: cooking in milk vs. water###Most of the recipes I've seen (including Good Eats) recommend simmering the oats in 4 cups of liquid for 1 cup of oats. Alton Brown recommends 3 cups of water for ~25 mins and then (1/2 cup of milk + 1/2 cup of buttermilk) for ~10 mins.###However, I would like to do away with water entirely (just curious).

TASK DEFINITION: Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. PROBLEM: CONTEXT: You can either bake them in something, and typically be fine (there are lots of cookie recipies out there that use them; search on the internet for 'biscotti ai pinoli'), or you can toast them ahead of time, and then encorporate them. (often, you toast them, then mix in, and bake).But a word of caution on toasting them -- they burn very easily. I've typically done it in a dry skillet, where I can keep an eye on them, and quickly get them off and to a try to cool. I seem to recall an interview with Alton Brown where he mentioned that toasting pine nuts was the number one ruined dish on Iron Chef America, because of chefs leaving them alone for too long. <sep> Q: can i bake pine nuts?###I was thinking of adding pine nuts to a caneloni filling, but wasn't too sure if the heat would make the nuts release anything nasty A: You can either bake them in something, and typically be fine Q: good to know, can I do the same with other nuts? A: But a word of caution on toasting them -- they burn very easily. I've typically done it in a dry skillet, where I can keep an eye on them, and quickly get them off and to a try to cool Q: how about other nuts? A: Alton Brown where he mentioned that toasting pine nuts was the number Q: what's are some more add ins for caneloni? A: one ruined dish on Iron Chef America, because of chefs leaving them alone for too long <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: how do you toast coconut? SOLUTION: one ruined dish on Iron Chef America, because of chefs leaving them alone for too long PROBLEM: CONTEXT: Honestly, all three of those will crisp up very quickly, and just about any ratio will produce a crispy end product. The blend may be for textural reasons; potato starch is typically very fine and produces a tempura-like shell, while rice flour can have little bits of individual rice grains which produces a "chunkier" texture.I probably wouldn't try to use pure starch as it will brown and burn very easily, but you probably don't even need all three ingredients. Personally, I'd start with a 50/50 blend of potato starch and rice flour and adjust from there. You could use tapioca starch instead of potato if it's easier for you to find locally, but definitely keep rice flour in the mix. <sep> Q: what flour Blend should I use for Seoul Chicken? A: just about any ratio will produce a crispy end product Q: The chef in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD97u0OUbBo uses a blend of tapioca starch, potato starch, and rice flour for his dredge. A: potato starch is typically very fine and produces a tempura-like shell <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Any ideas what ratio would be optimal for getting a crispy wing? SOLUTION: Personally, I'd start with a 50/50 blend of potato starch and rice flour and adjust from there PROBLEM: CONTEXT: What an interesting idea. Essentially you're looking to make rice out of potatoes, yes? I can see a couple of options. You could make potato orzo (a small pasta that looks like rice) I suppose; googling recipes for potato pasta should point you in the right direction.You could also, I think use the reverse spherification method. Make mash as you normally would, and then put it through a ricer into an alginate bath. This should preserve the individual 'grains'. You will need to have milk and/or cream in the mash to ensure there is enough calcium for the alginate to react with. <sep> Q: How to rice potatoes A: You could make potato orzo (a small pasta that looks like rice <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: can you tell me more about this? SOLUTION:
I suppose; googling recipes for potato pasta should point you in the right direction

Detailed Instructions: Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. See one example below: Problem: CONTEXT: What I've done in the past is mist some water on both sides of the bread slices, then put them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds (alternatively, an oven set at 300F/150C for 5-10 minutes will do it too).Experiment with the amount of water (but keep it low) and cooking times. You should get much softer (and warm) bread slices out of it. <sep> Q: How do I make whole multi grain bread softer? A: mist some water on both sides of the bread slices <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Does that make it soggy? Solution: Experiment with the amount of water (but keep it low) Explanation: Here the follow-up question asks about a way to make the bread softer. The answer (Experiment with the amount of water) is mentioned in the passage. Problem: CONTEXT: The short answer is yes, you can. We keep a wide variety of cheeses on hand. Quesadilla or Chihuahua Mexican cheeses are a great substitute for Mozzarella or Provolone cheese. The have a light flavor and work well with Italian foods. We always have these on hand, but they are not always easy to find in some areas. I often substitute simply because, while I might have the intended cheese on hand, there may be some that I need to use sooner than others depending on how long I've had them or how long they've been open. With mild cheeses, you don't have to worry about the flavor profile so much - it's more the melting. And the cheeses I mentioned melt well - just like Mozzarella or Provolone.And to let you know, the reason I tried the other cheeses: I asked in a Mexican restaurant what kind of cheese they used and was told that it was "like American Mozzarella". So, I decided to experiment.All said and done, all of these cheeses have a mild flavor and work in many dishes, regardless of the ethnicity. What you do want to stay away from are cheeses that don't melt well and are designed to keep their shape and texture under heat. One example would be quest fresco. <sep> Q: Mexican cheeses on otherwise Italian pizza A: The short answer is yes, you can. We keep a wide variety of cheeses on hand. Quesadilla or Chihuahua Mexican cheeses are a great substitute for Mozzarella or Provolone cheese Q: Does a Mexican cheese change the flavour very much? A: With mild cheeses, you don't have to worry about the flavor profile so much - it's more the melting. And the cheeses I mentioned melt well - just like Mozzarella or Provolone <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: can you recommend a mix of cheeses? Solution:
Quesadilla or Chihuahua Mexican cheeses are a great substitute for Mozzarella or Provolone cheese

Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. Q: CONTEXT: I am afraid that gloves make things worse. Even with proper training, people who wear gloves seem to be more complacent that those who do not wear gloves. I have seen people handle dollar bills then turn around and touch my food with the same gloves on. Disgusting, and I refuse the food, and when I tell them why, they say the gloves are to protect me...what the F ever. Then I ask them how that glove protects meFromThe germs on those dollars you just touched?I find its better to enforce good hand washing habits than it is to allow gloves to be used at all. When you are wearing gloves, you don't even wipe your hand on a towel, without gloves your hands kinda start to tell you they need to be washed if you've been lax. <sep> Q: Why use gloves when handling food? A: I am afraid that gloves make things worse. Even with proper training, people who wear gloves seem to be more complacent that those who do not wear gloves <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Does it have anything to do with sanitation? A: Disgusting, and I refuse the food, and when I tell them why, they say the gloves are to protect me...what the F ever **** Q: CONTEXT: I would keep the one that you are eating the next day out. I would then freeze the rest of them. If you like them warm, you could freeze them wrapped in foil. Before eating pop them in a toaster oven until gently warmed through. If not I'd freeze individually until solid then put in a bag to prevent your frozen bagels from sticking together, then thaw overnight (if eating in the morning) or in the morning (if eating for a mid-day meal) to eat. <sep> Q: I make six bagles at a time to eat during the week; what is the best way to store them?

Solution: Experiment with the amount of water (but keep it low) Explanation: Here the follow-up question asks about a way to make the bread softer. The answer (Experiment with the amount of water) is mentioned in the passage. Problem: CONTEXT: Yes, it can go bad.It's pretty much the same as the way flour can go bad: the fats can go rancid. Grains are mostly starch, but they contain enough fat for rancidity to be a noticeable problem. There's a huge amount of variability in how long that takes, though. If it's airtight and kept in a cool, dark place, it'll last much longer than the best before date. But if it's been exposed to air, light, or heat, it can go pretty fast, perhaps even before the best before date.So, smell it. If you detect any unpleasant smells, you probably don't want to eat it. Even if you don't smell anything obvious, it could still be subtly rancid, so if you're planning on serving it to anyone, you might want to cook a small bit to test. <sep> Q: Does polenta 'go off'? A: it can go bad Q: What is an indication that it goes bad? A: If you detect any unpleasant smells, you probably don't want to eat it. Even if you don't smell anything obvious, it could still be subtly rancid Q: Does the taste change when it goes bad? A: Grains are mostly starch, but they contain enough fat for rancidity to be a noticeable problem <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What else changes when it goes off? Solution:

Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. question: CONTEXT: If the yeast isn't out of date then the most likely sounding culprit is the temperature of your water. It should be between 105-110. If it's too cool then you won't activate the yeast and if you get it too warm you'll start to kill it.Another possible case can be when you're adding the salt. If it's going in before or at the same time as the sugar you will arrest the gas production and activity of the yeast.Get the yeast, sugar, water mixture going first and create a shaggy dough with your flour. Add the salt as you're starting to bring the dough together so that it doesn't act too quickly to arrest the yeast development.If you keep your flour in the freezer or refrigerator, make sure it has come to room temperature before adding it to the water or the chill of the flour will de-activate the yeast. <sep> Q: Why does my pizza dough rise so inconsistently? A: If the yeast isn't out of date then the most likely sounding culprit is the temperature of your water Q: What's the right temperature? A: t should be between 105-110 Q: What happens if it's too cold? A: If it's too cool then you won't activate the yeast <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What happens if it's too hot? answer: if you get it too warm you'll start to kill it question: CONTEXT: Browning your beef with some flour adds depth of flavor. The flour will act as a thickener, and by coating the meat with it you won't have problems with it clumping and getting little flour balls in your stew. However, unless you are browning the meat before adding to the cooker I would recommend you leave it out as uncooked flour might give your end dish a raw flour flavor. You can thicken it up at the end if you like with a cornstarch slurry. <sep> Q: Do I need to coat beef in flour mixture for slow cooked stew? A: Browning your beef with some flour adds depth of flavor. The flour will act as a thickener Q: do you have any other tips for a good stew? A: You can thicken it up at the end if you like with a cornstarch slurry <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What if I don't want my stew that thick? answer: However, unless you are browning the meat before adding to the cooker I would recommend you leave it out as uncooked flour might give your end dish a raw flour flavor question: CONTEXT: Coat the outside of the cake with a moderate layer of icing to bind the stick cookies. This is analogous to the mortar behind facade bricks in building a wall.You could also put a drop of icing underneath the bottom, but that probably is not necessary.Update: I just noticed in the photo you can actually see some of the icing between the cookies, showing this is exactly how the show case cake in the photo was done. <sep> Q: What is the best way to stick chocolate wafer sticks on a mudcake? A: Coat the outside of the cake with a moderate layer of icing to bind the stick cookies Q: How should the wafers be applied to get the best decorative result? A: You could also put a drop of icing underneath the bottom, but that probably is not necessary <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Is there anything else to help the sticks stay in place? answer:

Example output: Experiment with the amount of water (but keep it low) Example explanation: Here the follow-up question asks about a way to make the bread softer. The answer (Experiment with the amount of water) is mentioned in the passage. Q: CONTEXT: Basically, you can refreeze the raspberries.When a fruit or veg. is frozen, the water inside the plant cell expands, and bursts the cell wall, which is why there is so much 'juice' when you thaw. If you refreeze, you can be sure that the raspberries will freeze into a giant block. If you are using them to make a sauce or a jam, this is not significant. That being said, if you are using frozen raspberries in the first place, you are obviously not looking for a perfectly intact raspberry, you are using them for some other purpose. Therefor, refreezing is no big deal. I recently answered another question about freezing and refreezing, and how it is basically a myth that it renders the refrozen product inedible. Any time you freeze you know that you are not going to get 'exactly' the same product when you thaw it, and the same goes with refreezing, there is always a 'slight' degredation of the product with each successive freeze (do you like my liberal usage of quotes?) You won't poison yourself or anything like that, you should have no worries.That being said, what are you doing with the berries? Certainly a refrozen raspberry should be no worse that a raspberry frozen once. <sep> Q: Can I re-freeze fruit? A: f you refreeze, you can be sure that the raspberries will freeze into a giant block Q: I had let them thaw but have put them in the fridge since I realised my mistake. Am I able to refreeze the berries or should I find some immediate use for them? A: refreezing is no big deal <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What are the risks / consequences if I do refreeze? A:
there is always a 'slight' degredation of the product with each successive freeze

Q: CONTEXT: For a few months I would really not worry too much about your storage, half a year at 80F is not going to destroy your wine. If you have the space in your fridge then that is a better option, but I doubt even the most dedicated wine snob would be able to tell much of a difference. Humidity only matters if you have wine with traditional corks as low humidity will dry them out and spoil the wine, if you are buying twist caps and synthetic corks then humidity is not a consideration. A few months in low humidity should not result in cork drying, but year will. Vibration used to be a problem with older fridges, most newer fridges are pretty quiet and low vibration so I wouldn't worry there, especially for shorter term storage. Colder temperatures for storage will not cause a noticeable effect on wine's flavor over a few months, you'll want to let it warm up some for the best flavor though. Storing an opened bottle of wine in the fridge is a good idea in fact, as it will keep it drinkable longer. So unless you are buying expensive wine to keep for a long time you should be fine no matter which option you choose. <sep> Q: How important are each of temperature, humidity, and vibration for storing wine?

The answer (Experiment with the amount of water) is mentioned in the passage. Q: CONTEXT: The professional (read: industrial) solution would be maltodextrin powder. It is rather tasteless, has good solubility in liquids, and doesn't change much texturewise. In homemade spice mixes, the popular filler solution are dried breadcrumbs of a very small size (like breadcrumbs for schnitzel breading). They are noticeable, because the mix gets gritty, but the consensus among those who do it is that this is a feature, not a bug. They could also slightly thicken a wet dish (soup, stew), but present no problem when strewn over dry food. You can also use a nut flour made of nuts without much of an own taste, like apricot kernels or low quality overdried almonds. Again, this will be somewhat gritty, but not as hard as the breadcrumn solution. <sep> Q: What would make a good, flavorless extender/filler for my spice mix?

Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. [EX Q]: CONTEXT: You are probably stirring the pudding too much. Cornstarch starts thickening at about 205°F/95°C. Once the pudding has got to that point and has thickened, stop stirring, otherwise you will interfere with the starch formation that causes the thickening. Using electric beaters probably means you are missing the point when the pudding has thickened and quickly beating the living daylights out of any starch formation that has occurred.It may also be the case that you are beating so much air into the pudding that it just doesn't get hot enough to activate the cornstarch in the first place. I would use @ecnerwal's suggestion of a double boiler, along with a balloon whisk, and some patience. <sep> Q: How can I make my pudding thicker?###How much corn starch do you recommend using? A: Cornstarch starts thickening at about 205°F/95°C <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Okay, do you think that if I use an electric beater that would help? [EX A]: Using electric beaters probably means you are missing the point when the pudding has thickened and quickly beating the living daylights out of any starch formation that has occurred [EX Q]: CONTEXT: Mesquite is a very assertive flavor that typically goes with beef, especially fatty beef.Pecan and hickory are stronger than apple, but milder than mesquite, and are great for pork or poultry, and work just fine with beef.Applewood is very flexible, a bit lighter and sweeter. It's the only one of the woods you mentioned that I would consider using with fish.Ultimately, there's no hard and fast rules - taste things and do what works for you! <sep> Q: How do these flavors of liquid smoke differ? A: Mesquite is a very assertive flavor that typically goes with beef, especially fatty beef Q: How does it differ from hickory, apple-tree or pecan? A: Pecan and hickory are stronger than apple, but milder than mesquite <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What would you pair with hickory? [EX A]: great for pork or poultry, and work just fine with beef [EX Q]: CONTEXT: The professional (read: industrial) solution would be maltodextrin powder. It is rather tasteless, has good solubility in liquids, and doesn't change much texturewise. In homemade spice mixes, the popular filler solution are dried breadcrumbs of a very small size (like breadcrumbs for schnitzel breading). They are noticeable, because the mix gets gritty, but the consensus among those who do it is that this is a feature, not a bug. They could also slightly thicken a wet dish (soup, stew), but present no problem when strewn over dry food. You can also use a nut flour made of nuts without much of an own taste, like apricot kernels or low quality overdried almonds. Again, this will be somewhat gritty, but not as hard as the breadcrumn solution. <sep> Q: What would make a good, flavorless extender/filler for my spice mix? A: The professional (read: industrial) solution would be maltodextrin powder <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Is maltodextrin powder known by any other names? [EX A]:
In homemade spice mixes, the popular filler solution are dried breadcrumbs of a very small size

Part 1. Definition Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. Part 2. Example CONTEXT: What I've done in the past is mist some water on both sides of the bread slices, then put them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds (alternatively, an oven set at 300F/150C for 5-10 minutes will do it too).Experiment with the amount of water (but keep it low) and cooking times. You should get much softer (and warm) bread slices out of it. <sep> Q: How do I make whole multi grain bread softer? A: mist some water on both sides of the bread slices <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Does that make it soggy? Answer: Experiment with the amount of water (but keep it low) Explanation: Here the follow-up question asks about a way to make the bread softer. The answer (Experiment with the amount of water) is mentioned in the passage. Part 3. Exercise CONTEXT: This should be no problem. It is basically the same process as making a vinaigrette, only using water instead of vinegar, and lecithin instead of mustard. Here's how I would go about it. Let's say you have 1 cup of oil to emulsify. Go buy soy lecithin at a health food store. Take 1/2 cup of water, and dissolve 1 teaspoon of the soy lecithin in it. Use a blender or immersion blender. With the blender running, slowly drizzle in the cod liver oil. It will emulsify - the oil will disperse into ultra-fine droplets in the water, and presumably the taste will be both diluted and somewhat hidden by being locked up in little droplets. If this doesn't work, you just need more lecithin, so dissolve a bit more in another 1/4 cup of water and drizzle the whole thing back in to the blender.Naturally you'll want to take 50% more, since the oil is now only 2/3 of the volume.Those other ingredients are for flavor and anti-oxidation, not needed for the basic thing you are trying to accomplish. <sep> Q: How can I emulsify cod liver oil, or otherwise mask its taste? A: It is basically the same process as making a vinaigrette, only using water instead of vinegar, and lecithin instead of mustard <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Is there a way for me to make a similar product at home from raw cod liver oil? Answer:
Go buy soy lecithin at a health food store. Take 1/2 cup of water, and dissolve 1 teaspoon of the soy lecithin in it. Use a blender or immersion blender

Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. Example Input: CONTEXT: The primary reason is definitely convenience. If you don't want skin and seeds in your sauce, then you have to do some work to avoid it. Yes, it's possible, e.g. passing through a food mill, or blanching and peeling plus retaining only the flesh, but having it already done is a whole lot easier.Passata is usually much thicker too, so it won't need as long a cooking time to reduce into a non-watery sauce as fresh tomatoes. On top of that, you don't have to worry about whether you can find good fresh tomatoes, e.g. if it's winter and they're out of season.Your two cases for comparison seem to overlook this: if you just chop and cook, you'll have skin and seeds in your sauce, as well as excess liquid to cook down, while if you use passata, you won't. (Also, for what it's worth, you'd need pretty giant tomatoes to get the equivalent of 3/4 cup of passata out of one tomato.)Of course, if you don't mind skin and seeds, it's also perfectly fine to simply cook fresh tomatoes and be done with it.Note that you can often get similar advantages from other canned tomato products. In the US, crushed tomatoes are far more common, and a roughly similar texture. (Peeled whole tomatoes, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and tomato paste can also be useful depending on what texture you're aiming for.) <sep> Q: What exactly is Passata? A: crushed tomatoes Q: Is it better to use Passata instead of fresh tomatoes? A: The primary reason is definitely convenience <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Is the procedure that much more difficult to use fresh tomatoes instead of using Passata? Example Output: f you don't want skin and seeds in your sauce, then you have to do some work to avoid it Example Input: CONTEXT: I would think this is happening because your cream is just about to turn sour. As cream ages, lactic acid builds up in it. The acidity in your coffee is enough at that point to push the cream over the edge to curdling. Try newer cream or a very low-acid coffee with old cream and you should be OK. <sep> Q: Why is cream curdled in my coffee? A: I would think this is happening because your cream is just about to turn sour Q: Could it have something to do with either the coffee being too hot? A: As cream ages, lactic acid builds up in it. The acidity in your coffee is enough at that point to push the cream over the edge to curdling <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: What can I do to stop this from happening? Example Output: Try newer cream or a very low-acid coffee with old cream and you should be OK Example Input: CONTEXT: Steaming generally doesn't make meat juicier -- it is just as easy to dry out a piece of meat with wet heat as it is with dry heat, if not easier.There are two things that you can do to make your turkey juicier. The first is a brine, which Elendil suggests above. The second is to make sure you aren't overcooking. I'd suggest using a probe thermometer and pulling the tenderloin when it is at around 160F and letting it coast to your target temperature of 165F. <sep> Q: How effective is steaming a turkey tenderloin the size of a brisket to make it tender and juicy? A: Steaming generally doesn't make meat juicier -- it is just as easy to dry out a piece of meat with wet heat as it is with dry heat, if not easier Q: What's one thing I can do to make my turkey juicier? A: There are two things that you can do to make your turkey juicier Q: What's one of those things I can do? A: The first is a brine Q: What's the other strategy I can use here? A: The second is to make sure you aren't overcooking <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Do you have a suggestion how I can prevent it from being overcooked? Example Output:
I'd suggest using a probe thermometer and pulling the tenderloin when it is at around 160F and letting it coast to your target temperature of 165F.

Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. CONTEXT: This is something that can happen during the manufacture of porcelain. It is due to iron particles in the clay used to make the porcelain, they get this look after being fired. It is part of the mug itself and cannot be removed. Customers don't like isolated black dots on white porcelain, so high end manufacturers only sell items without these dots. But if you bought something in the mid- or low-price range, or B-ware from the high end brands, these specks are common enough. It is only an optical defect, the mug itself is clean and you don't have to do anything more about it. <sep> Q: Black spots in porcelain coffee mug? A: This is something that can happen during the manufacture of porcelain Q: Why does this happen? A: It is due to iron particles in the clay used to make the porcelain, they get this look after being fired. It is part of the mug itself and cannot be removed Q: When does it happen? A: they get this look after being fired <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: How do you get rid of them?? It is part of the mug itself and cannot be removed CONTEXT: What I've done in the past is mist some water on both sides of the bread slices, then put them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds (alternatively, an oven set at 300F/150C for 5-10 minutes will do it too).Experiment with the amount of water (but keep it low) and cooking times. You should get much softer (and warm) bread slices out of it. <sep> Q: I want to try eating more whole grain bread but it is often to hard. Is there any way to make this softer? A: What I've done in the past is mist some water on both sides of the bread slices, then put them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Is there any other option than the microwave? an oven set at 300F/150C for 5-10 minutes will do it too CONTEXT: It is hard to tell from the picture, but this doesn't look like burned off seasoning, it is more like a burned on residue. If that's the case, you can try cleaning it some way. The problem is that physical cleaning methods probably won't be sufficient, chemical cleaning with alkali will damage the seasoning and chemical cleaning with acid, if the seasoning is compromised, can rust the pan a bit. So there is a high chance you will end up reseasoning. If this really looks and feels like a buildup and not like exposed oxidised metal, my preference would be to soak in warm, not hot, acid. Vinegar or a citric acid solution should work well. Afterwards, try to scrub off with a stiff plastic brush. If it doesn't go away, or the seasoning goes away too, or if this was missing seasoning from the beginning, you have to strip and reseason. We have several questions on the topic, and the Internet is also full of suggestions. I personally prefer doing it with lye (best results, strips both old seasoning and rust), owners of self-cleaning ovens like incinerating it, and there are a list of other methods to work with. <sep> Q: How do I recover from overheating my cast-iron skillet? A: It is hard to tell from the picture, but this doesn't look like burned off seasoning, it is more like a burned on residue Q: What do I do if that is the case? A: If that's the case, you can try cleaning it some way Q: What is the best cleaning method? A: The problem is that physical cleaning methods probably won't be sufficient, chemical cleaning with alkali will damage the seasoning Q: What is best? A: my preference would be to soak in warm, not hot, acid. Vinegar or a citric acid solution should work well. Afterwards, try to scrub off with a stiff plastic brush Q: What if this doesn't work? A: If it doesn't go away, or the seasoning goes away too, or if this was missing seasoning from the beginning, you have to strip and reseason <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: How?

New input case for you: CONTEXT: I make split pea soup (with a hambone, which is an unavoidable source of salt - I don't add any extra salt until the very end) pretty regularly. I don't soak the peas. It takes more like 3 or 4 hours for the peas to dissolve. It's not a gradual process either - for ages and ages there are little peas floating in broth, and you can eat one and it's soft, but they don't lose their shape, and then the next time you stop by the stove, it's a uniform puree without having done anything. Just keep simmering, is my advice. <sep> Q: How do I get the peas to dissolve and make a thick broth for split pea soup? A: Just keep simmering, is my advice Q: How long should I need to simmer the soup?

TASK DEFINITION: Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. PROBLEM: CONTEXT: Absolutely! Metal skewers contribute to cooking the meat from the center as they pick up heat from the exposed parts and conduct it throughout.It is a good idea not to crowd your metal skewers with pieces of food to promote this. Not crowding the skewers also exposes more surface area for the food to caramelize. Doing this on a wooden skewer runs the risk of burning the skewers and losing food into the grill. <sep> Q: Do metal skewers make a considerable different cooking time than wooden? A: Metal skewers contribute to cooking the meat from the center as they pick up heat from the exposed parts and conduct it throughout <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: So, metal skewers are definitely better than wooden? SOLUTION: Doing this on a wooden skewer runs the risk of burning the skewers and losing food into the grill PROBLEM: CONTEXT: First, remove some, but not all, of the end. Make sure to leave a little of the root intact, as this will make the next steps easier. Peel the onion and discard the peel.Stand your onion on one of the now-flat ends. Chop in half with your chef's knife.Lay a single half on the flat end. Working from root to cut end, make several cuts at dice width that cut almost to the root end, but leave a little bit still attached.Working perpendicular to your last set of cuts, make another set of cuts at dice width. This will leave you with cut pieces. When you get to the portion with the root, discard it.Repeat for your other onion half.During cooking, the layers should flake apart leaving dice sized pieces. <sep> Q: What is the best method of dicing an onion? A: First, remove some, but not all, of the end <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Which end? SOLUTION: Make sure to leave a little of the root intact, as this will make the next steps easie PROBLEM: CONTEXT: I make split pea soup (with a hambone, which is an unavoidable source of salt - I don't add any extra salt until the very end) pretty regularly.

TASK DEFINITION: Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. PROBLEM: CONTEXT: The old thin utensils were made of Nylon.The reasons they are hard to find is that traditional Nylon is difficult to manufacture within food standard guidelines for PAA (Primary Aromatic Amines) migration, and does not bio-degrade or burn safely. For relevant references, your local government health department will have papers on PAA migration.Given that, many utensil manufactures have moved on to other plastics, mostly silicone. Though some use PA66 (Nylon 6,6), which is that thick chunky black plastic stuff.Try wooden spatulas. They are simple, clean, disposable, and you can get them in thin wedge shapes (e.g. at Asian supply shops). <sep> Q: Where did the thin, smooth plastic spatulas go?###20 years ago, the most common type of rigid spatula (or "turner") was smooth, thin (as in 3mm or less with a sharp edge), and generally made of nylon.### These spatulas were not very durable (leading edges tended to melt), but they were very very good for making eggs and other delicate non-stick-pan dishes. A: they are hard to find is that traditional Nylon is difficult to manufacture within food standard guidelines for PAA (Primary Aromatic Amines) migration, and does not bio-degrade or burn safely <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Why did manufacturers stop making thin, smooth plastic turner spatulas? SOLUTION: The old thin utensils were made of Nylon PROBLEM: CONTEXT: Very simply, bake it for the recommended time in the recipe. Then if it looks golden brown (note that if the air in the oven is not humid enough the bread may stay pale, on a side note a humid oven helps to develop a good crust), tap it in on it's base and if it sounds hollow its done. If it feels soft in the base and not hollow or If its still not golden brown, put it back in the oven for a few minutes then try the tap check again. Although you stated you dislike the thermometer technique, for others reading the bread should have an internal temperature of 200F or 94C, if not return it to the oven for a few minutes until it is. <sep> Q: How can you know that your bread is done?###Most bread recipes give an estimate to how long that bread must bake A: Very simply, bake it for the recommended time in the recipe <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: However, I find it hard to check whether it's done or not. ###Most bread recipes give an estimate to how long that bread must bake SOLUTION: tap it in on it's base and if it sounds hollow its done PROBLEM: CONTEXT: Lay them out on a paper towel overnight so that the skins dry completely. This gives the benefit of keeping the frozen blueberries from sticking together without needing lots of freezer space to do a quick freeze individually on a sheet pan. Then bag in a freezer bag and freeze.Note that whenever you freeze fruit, the liquid will burst the cell walls as it thaws, causing the resulting berry to be mushier. In my experience, frozen blueberries aren't good for eating alone. To bake with blueberries, thaw them by placing them in a mesh sieve or collander and running water over them until the water is clear off the bottom (no pigmentation from the skins, which may color your baked goods) and the berries are thawed. Dry the skins before using in baking.Using these techniques I have not once had any of the 30 pounds of blueberries I froze this summer burst in the freezer and have successfully made many blueberry baked goods from the results. <sep> Q: what's a good technique for freezing blueberries? A: Lay them out on a paper towel overnight so that the skins dry completely Q: Could I put them in the oven at 150 for an hour A: To bake with blueberries, thaw them by placing them in a mesh sieve or collander and running water over them until the water is clear off the bottom <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Which way would result in less exploded berries when the water in them freezes? SOLUTION:

Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'. CONTEXT: I understand that sugar (and by extension jaggery) helps yeast multiply at a very fast paceThis is only partly true. Yeast is a living organism and can only live under certain conditions, including a certain osmotic pressure. If you start from pure bread dough, then adding a bit of sugar to the dough (or to the preferment) can make it rise faster. But adding sugar in quantities sufficient to make the bread taste sweet will slow down the yeast growth, as opposed to making it quicker. There is even an upper limit for how much sugar you can add per 100 g of flour, and it's not recommended to use recipes which prescribe more, as they turn out poorly. So I wouldn't change the amount of yeast, unless you make the empirical observation that your yeast is overfed (recognizable by speed of raising and the changed smell). <sep> Q: Sugar and yeast proportion while making sweet bread A: If you start from pure bread dough, then adding a bit of sugar to the dough (or to the preferment) can make it rise faster Q: Should I decrease the amount of yeast used? A: There is even an upper limit for how much sugar you can add per 100 g of flour, and it's not recommended to use recipes which prescribe more <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: s there a rule or ratio by which I must decrease the yeast for every unit of sugar added? There is even an upper limit for how much sugar you can add per 100 g of flour CONTEXT: To get ground seeds I usually pound the whole pods once or twice in a mortar. The seeds should separate from the husk easily then. Remove the entire pod from the mortar, and grind the seeds.Is this recipe for a marinade? You might get away with just crushing the pods, not separating the husk and seeds. <sep> Q: Recipe asks for 15 cardamom pods, crushed...do I keep the shells? A: To get ground seeds I usually pound the whole pods once or twice in a mortar. The seeds should separate from the husk easily then <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Do I use the shells or dispose of them? Remove the entire pod from the mortar, and grind the seeds CONTEXT: Without seeing the recipe and procedure, it is hard to say if the seeds are necessary, there are many recipes for Seville orange marmalade that don't call for the seeds, and some that do. There is a good chance that they aren't essential to the recipe, that being said:There is pectin in the seeds of citrus, but there is no need to grind or chop them for it to be released. Tying them in a cheesecloth bag, that would be easy to remove after cooking, would be fine. (If the recipe uses added pectin, then the seeds shouldn't be needed at all.) <sep> Q: Are the citrus seeds necessary when making marmalade? A: Without seeing the recipe and procedure, it is hard to say if the seeds are necessary Q: Are the seeds necessary when making marmalade to extract pectin? A: Seville orange marmalade that don't call for the seeds, and some that do. There is a good chance that they aren't essential to the recipe <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: This recipe is with Seville oranges and low in sugar, what is the best way to keep the seeds separate?
Tying them in a cheesecloth bag, that would be easy to remove after cooking, would be fine
