You are better off pouring in the sink, not on a counter or a tray. This
way, any spilled liquid will end up in the sink. Less cleanup.

Hi you can practice pouring liquids using a cold liquid such as water.
Also I suggest to put your cup on the counter or table while pouring the liquid
with the other hand.
Take one hand and put your finger at the top of the cup.
Take your other hand and line it up with the cup and pour.
But that is the key difference: A lesser form. A brine is a concentrated
salt and water solution, perhaps with other spices and herbs added. The meat
will obtain a much sharper taste than meat marinated in, for example, sour
cream, buttermilk or dressing, even with the same spices. The amount of
That may work for not scorching fingers, but it doesn't prevent spilling if
you move your hand when you're pouring. That's why I pour in the sink,
liquid indicator or not.

Hello,
We have an instapot but it is not one that works with the app. We find it
chalenging to use. It does have buttons on it. What brands do you have that you
find work well and where did you get them?

It can help with low grade cuts. Marinades are a lesser form of brining
if you think about it.

My meat and sweet taste will never meet. Just my personal preference. But
regardless of the marinating ingredient: If I am marinating meat in
something, there will be either salt in the marinade, or some form of salt
added later for seasoning. Just no way otherwise.

You can marinate it overnight in sour cream, buttermilk, yogurt, mayonnaise,
ranch dressing, among other things. Or, if you don't marinate it, you can
dip the chicken in one of those ingredients when you are breading it, this
will help with making chicken breast more moist.

The opinions expressed in cooking classes are just the preferences of those
who teach the class. Another cook will have a totally different point of
view. Just watch food writers and cookbook authors disagree on any given
topic.

I know it will raise eyebrows on some, but if I want to make certain
that my meat is really tenderized well, I'll soak it in soda pop.
Doesn't matter what flavor, the sweetness of the drink is not passed
to the meat. I kid you not, it works! I've even put it on hamburgers
and it worked.
Eilen, Does the yogurt method of tenderizing chicken work on the chicken
breast? Make them moist?

I know how to make good French press coffee. I personally use the James

but that wasnt the question.
I was specifically asking about pour over devices and if anyone was using
one that was accessible to use since pour over is more fussy about proper

My sister recently attended a cooking class and it was recommended to tenderize
meat, at least chicken, with yogurt. Only use plain unflavored yogurt on
poultry over night for a more tender result.

Hi,
I have used a small 4-cup perk pot for years. While I like coffee, I can’t
drink as much as I used to because even decafe coffee in excess makes my heart

Braun brands of auto drip makers. I gave up on them after

Get a liguid censor from Speak To Me. It is a little gadget that you put on the
edge of the cup, and it beeps when the liquid reaches the prongs. No more
scorched fingers.

Anyone using a french press after pouring water over coffee in the pot
needs to stir the coffee in the pot for a minute before pressing.
Otherwise a french press will be about as bad as instant coffee. That
stirring gets the flavors into the water before you press.

The best coffee I ever drank came from a percolator before Mr. Coffee
was marketed. The next best I drink now is from a french press. The
pour over method I tried a few times and I consider that worse than the
French Press, and drip from Mr. Coffee would be worse than pour over
with all instant
Thank you again.
I have done what has been suggested, and I find it does work.
God bless

I see no reason to brine meat.
