Russian companies are reported to be increasingly using a food additive that is banned in the country—"meat glue" or transglutaminase—to cut production costs.
rofl how do those sanctions taste ruzzians??
Transglutaminase was also banned by the European Union in 2010
It has been banned for use in food production in Russia since 2020
It is still permitted for use in the United States.
I know a guy who used to be a driver for Heston and he told me Heston's secret to the perfect steak. It's was the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Cook the steak for seventeen seconds per side and flip some arbitrary amount of times.
So basically, cooking a steak the way anyone else would, but while being really pedantic about meaningless specifics like the exact number of seconds to cook per side
God I can't stand those "the perfect way to do X". It's the ultimate objectification of an inherently relational experience, the one of making, tasting and sharing food.
Entirely agree. I bet Heston's steak is mid at best. My dad cooked the best steak
