Fruit juice with poultry and rice is mostly south-asian or indian cuisine, no?

Edit: oh, it's Fanta. Gross.

[–] awfulawful@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 17 hours ago

Rice is wetter than an otter's pocket.

Nigella Gruesome.

[–] Godort@lemmy.ca 57 points 1 day ago (3 children)

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.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 6 points 17 hours ago

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.

[–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 5 points 23 hours ago

Yeah, I did not expect the rice to be the part that made me the most sad.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The chicken itself is probably fine.

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

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

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

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

[–] Capsaicin1337@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Look again. It is fanta zero. British food at its finest. Be happy she did not boil the rice in fanta

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.

The sugar in fruit is fructose and is healthy, contrary to refined sugars.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (1 children)

where do you think table sugar comes from?

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 7 hours ago

Sugar cane or sugar beet. It's sucrose, a mixture of fructose and glucose.

Not all sugar is the same.

[–] ebolapie@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

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

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Whatttt xD nothing you say makes sense lol

[–] ebolapie@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (2 children)

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.

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

There's a difference between the fructose in fruit and stuff like high fructose corn syrup. Fructose is healthy in certain doses, like when eating fruit. When eating more than the amount found naturally in fruit it becomes unhealthy.

When you make fruit juice, you don't juice one piece of fruit but a number of them. This way the sugar concentration becomes higher, which can be of the level of coca cola of you use enough fruit.

But in soda usually HFCS is used and sometimes sucrose. But HFCS is also a mixture of fructose and sucrose.

There's a difference between eating 4 apples and drinking juice/soda with sugar content similar to 20 apples, but refined sugars instead.

Also the sugar molecules found in fruit are not the same as the ones in corn or pure refined fructose. One is better than the other.

[–] ebolapie@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

What is the difference between the fructose in an orange and the fructose in HFCS? Like if I presented you with two molecules of fructose, how would you tell which came from an orange and which came from coke? It seems to me like you are repeating my point back to me, which is that it is the vehicle through which the fructose is introduced to the body that makes a difference, rather than one sugar being fundamentally different from the other.

Why would the concentration increase if I juice two apples instead of one? The quantity of juice produced would surely increase, but why would the concentration without further processing?

Sucrose is unstable in the environment of a soda can. It breaks down into fructose and glucose. Depending on the amount of time the soda has been canned it might contain zero sucrose.

you did a great job explaining and helping get my point across.

[–] Denjin@feddit.uk 26 points 1 day ago (3 children)

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

^we probably deserve it though^

[–] Siegfried@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Na, it really isn't fair.

You can’t see the video? If you can’t vpn it then I’ll post it elsewhere so you can see it.

All it’s missing some peas and gravy

Can't tell if she over cooked her rice or undercooked her congee

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Honestly if it was cooked in chicken stock instead of water it would be good congee.

[–] binarytobis@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

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.

[–] thericofactor@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 day ago

The same tasteful result as her interior decorating.

[–] Gaja0@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

We pour coke on the christmas ham, but this is where a draw the line.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago

coke is a great marinade for pork, especially tough chops.

[–] Gnugit@aussie.zone 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Is she related to Jamie Oliver?

[–] cosmictrickster@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

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.

[–] FreddiesLantern@leminal.space -1 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago) (2 children)

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

[–] MJKee9@lemmy.world 4 points 14 hours ago

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.

[–] awfulawful@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 17 hours ago

It's perfectly fine if you maintain your cutting board properly. In that case it is safer than plastic.
