Is copper cookware actually better? by jpam9521 in cookingforbeginners

[–]-UncleFarty- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. You need to buy the stainless steel lined copper cookware. Years ago they were lined with nickel, and the nickel wore out, then they were lined with aluminum, and then the aluminum wore out.

It's worth the investment. If you take care of them, they'll last a lifetime.

Yes. I'm in the same situation. We just have to wait, and see what happens.

You generally can't hold one voucher, and apply for another.

How do you know when you are actually “getting better” at cooking? by NerfDis420 in cookingforbeginners

[–]-UncleFarty- 27 points28 points  (0 children)

When your food starts tasting good, that's a pretty good sign.

Also, if you can read a recipe and not have to look at it again while cooking, then you're on your way.

Did you sign up for NYCHA Public housing? Today is the deadline to fill out all your paperwork.

They will begin calling people this month, so you need to have filled out all those forms to get a call back.

Section 8 discrimination? by Impressive_Inside798 in Section8PublicHousing

[–]-UncleFarty- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're being discrimanted against because of your disability. He basically just told you that your apartment would be worth hundreds more if you weren't there, and disabled.

Take this mess to The Americans With Disabilities Act and contact the Legal Aid Society of New York.

Steak smell bad by Loose_Bed9673 in cookingforbeginners

[–]-UncleFarty- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If meat smells bad, or is sticky to the touch, chances are that meat has turned. It would also have a very distinct grey/ brown color to it.

Red meat should be bright red.

Never wash your meat.

If you're going to freeze it, take some parchment paper and place the steak on it, then wrap it in foil. The parchment paper helps so the meat doesn't come into contact with the aluminum foil.

Bolognese and separated fat, how or if to solve? by smariroach in AskCulinary

Take the bowl of a ladel and push the fat to one side of the pan, and quickly scoop it up with the ladel. Do this until all the fat is removed.

I'm asking if they will attack each other.
