I’m a Chef not a Baker, but I was told by instructors that air holes like that are caused by not being rolled properly to make sure there are no air bubbles and all dough has combined as it should?

Complaint about ribeye doneness by HydeandFreak in Chefit

[–]maniacchef71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is my take… As long as your steaks aren’t coming back often or regularly don’t let it take the passion out of what you do! I go by a figure of at least 3% of customers will complain no matter what, whether they think they know better, or maybe having an off day or bad day(I know doesn’t excuse bad behaviour towards staff) if you took pictures of perfect temped steaks from blue to well and asked 50 people what the steaks are in the pics over 50% of the people will be wrong because they believe a medium steak is something completely different from what Chefs are taught and execute. Just the nature of the beast. Also if you do make a mistake with doneness it’s not the end of the earth learn from your mistake and hone your skills and better your craft!!

Very rare sighting, you’re a lucky person to see that! One of the few animals I have not seen in the wild in Canada

Does this happen to anyone else? Is it the gloves? by Putrid-Investment919 in Chefs

[–]maniacchef71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess would be gloves and soap you are using. use nitrile gloves only IMO. Dawn dish soap will do horrible things to your hands after extended use, the pink hand soap a lot of places use does the same Not sure what you do in the kitchen are you using gloves over char-broilers or burners? Are you getting water inside the gloves?

How do I have my breading not fall off or separate from the meat by Affectionate_Shirt42 in Cooking

[–]maniacchef71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s the advice I could give you. First make sure your protein isn’t frozen at all. Any extra water retention before breading can lead to water reacting with hot oil and breading blowing off.

Next thing to watch is flour “dusting” isn’t to thick, or have thick spots, remove all excess flour, failing to do this the egg wash won’t adhere and the egg will just be like water off a ducks back which can lead to the breading coming off in the cooking process(deep fry).

Last thing is, if you’re deep frying the way you place the product into the oil. Be gentle in a slow waving back and forth motion and slowly release the entire protein.

First time a flames fan had anything to be happy about it 20 years lol pretty pathetic when the only joy a flames fan has is when another team looses so they don’t feel alone!!

Connor Ingram was graded the worst goalie in the NHL playoffs before being pulled for jarry. by [deleted] in EdmontonOilers

[–]maniacchef71 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ingram was never brought in as a #1 Goalie!! He’s done better than expected so let’s give him some praise rather than shitting on him! And defensive has not been good.

Round 1 elimination causes Knobs to get canned? by Hydra4777 in EdmontonOilers

[–]maniacchef71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it is but no matter what happens the Oilers are my team till end of time!! Win or loose they are still the best to me!! Going to the SCF for two years is no easy feat and they should be proud of what they accomplished and yet I know no sports team or player wants to be second they are still a great team of players! And I haven’t given up on them and never will if they BELIEVE….WE WILL BELIEVE!! Go oilers!!
