    Raw chicken on a wooden chopping block… that’s not a good idea is it? (I mean in addition to the other stuff)

      Wash it with soap and water, then let it dry. The wood itself is naturally anti-microbial, so it will sanitize itself as it dries.

    The chicken itself is probably fine. It would taste like any sauced chicken you get at an American Chinese restaurant.

    That rice was heinous though.

      That rice could probably have been cooked for another hour or two. I mean, I’m sure that you can still see the individual grains.

      Duck a’laronge is fine. The acidic drink might even have worked as a marinade. We have coq au vin as well.

      One time I made chicken with pears and pear cider. It worked well.

      I think this dish is better than it’s made out to be.

      Fuck that rice though

        It’s made with ~11 cubes of sugar for a single portion. She just made awful rice with candy.

          You won’t belive how much sugar is in fruit

          https://health.clevelandclinic.org/fruits-high-in-sugar

          Grams of sugar in one large orange: 17.2.

          The internet says one sugar cube is 4 grams. Let’s be kind to me and round down the cubes of sugar to 10 and round up the sugar in the orange to 20.

          Basically, if you made duck a la orange with 2 oranges, you’d be using the same amount of sugar.

          It’s not that divorced from the reality of the situation expected in kitchens.

              Fruit is healthy in moderation because of all the fiber. Soda also contains primarily fructose.

                  Soda contains primarily fructose as a sugar, either because they put the fructose in when they made it via high fructose corn syrup or because the sucrose (from cane sugar) is broken down into fructose + glucose by the acid in the soda. It is not the type of sugar that makes fruit healthier than soda. Rather, it’s the other stuff in fruit. When it comes to glycemic index (how quickly the food raises your blood sugar) fiber is the hero, because it slows the absorption of the sugar by your gut, which means fruit doesn’t spike your blood sugar nearly as quickly as sugared soda. Fruit juice (which is basically fruit minus fiber) has a shockingly similar glycemic index to Coca-Cola.

                  Sorry for all the parentheticals. I am not a very good writer.

    Very clever using imgur so we can’t defend ourselves because we can’t see the image.

    ^we probably deserve it though^

        I’ve never put chicken stock in a rice cooker, but I kind of need to know.

        I did steam some nachos in there one time. They came out perfect. When I excitedly told a few friends, they all universally gave me concerned looks. I decided to retire the recipe while I still had people around me who weren’t ashamed to be near me.

          Look up “arroz con pollo” and you’ll get a universe of options. Ate it all the time growing up a dozen different ways, it was a staple.

      No, Jamie would have put the teaspoon of oil aside and poured the rest of the bottle in. Then used the remaining teaspoon as a serving garnish.
