Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from December 25, 2020 Favoriting

Bronwyn Bishop's avatar View Bronwyn Bishop's profile Favoriting

Musical theater from off the beaten path. Obscure and unusual show tunes from within the canon and without, flops, failures, and the newest works from up-and-coming artists—plus tried-and-true hits. Also, occasional appearances from songs that are not show tunes (but only if they go really well with show tunes).

My oven has the special feature that when you turn off the timer, the oven also goes off, so my chicken was not really getting roasted... or was it? No idea now.

i hope it ends up being a nice chicken for u!

NYC. Moderate rain and strong wind from 11PM to 6AM.

Goldanged infernal machines LG.

When we are cooking we use timers to keep track of where we're at...of course when they go off you wonder what it was you set them for???...hehehe...:)
  🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:09pm
WR:

Use cooking thermometer if you have it LG. Safest way to know it is adequately cooked.
Avatar 🎭 8:09pm
Listener Gregory:

@WR, yes. The design of this Whirlpool stove is idiotic in most ways.
Avatar 🎭 8:12pm
Listener Gregory:

I consulted the Joy of Cooking (edition ca. 1955), which told me to cook it to 190°. Fortunately I mentioned this in a text, and my brother told me I was an idiot.
  8:17pm
CC:

Some people don't worry about stuff if it's a little raw???...:)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:19pm
Webhamster Henry:

maybe it was 190°C.

I've read white meat is fine at 150, dark meat at 175 degrees.
Avatar 🎭 8:31pm
Listener Gregory:

You measure it at 165 or so and then let it rest for 20 min, and it continues to cook. Having eaten some, I’d say it’s ok but not great. However, not disastrous, which was my worry.
Avatar 8:33pm
Bronwyn Bishop:

yay glad it turned out ok!!
  8:34pm

I don't know how they expect people to develop their own antibodies against stuff if we all have to be so careful???...:)

No other animals bothers to cook their food.
