Cooking Tips

Measurement 

          1 TBSP ( tablespoon) = 3 tsp (teaspoon) 

1 cup = 16 tablespoon   
1⁄4  cup= 4 tablespoon 
1 gallon = 16 cups 

1 cup = 236.588 milliliter

250 ml is equivalent to 1 cup. This conversion is commonly used in cooking and baking, particularly when switching between the metric system (milliliters) and the US customary system (cups).

23:00 / don't put pork in hot oil, otherwise it stick
24:00 low and slow, on low heat, more juicy, more tender

Question? 
1. Measure by weight or volume?  water, milk, egg
2. 5 mother sauces

Non-slip kitchen shoes.

Fishery
1. Check fish: Should smell like oceans, not like fishy. Eye should be bright, not dull.
2. Fishery: long-line fish is better; Domino effect for sustainability. 
3. Lobster: after 24 hours, no good.
4. Sea Inlet Oysters
5. Lam seafood market  [location: TUKWILA, SEATTLE]

1. Steak: Cook mostly for Medium -rare  
    Burger:  standard [80/20, muscle/fat], Lean [90/10, muscle/fat],

2. Potato -- American
    Noodle -- Italian

3.  Butter:
America: 75% fat
European: 80% fat
Bubble: that is water to indicate how hot pan is.
brown butter
Clarified butter 澄清黄油also known as drawn butter or ghee, is butter that has been cooked to remove the milk solids and some of the water, resulting in a clear, yellow liquid. This process leaves behind pure butterfat, which has a higher smoke point than regular butter and can be used for cooking at higher temperatures without burning. 

4. Lemon zest
 
4. Pan temperature for cooking is generally categorized as low, medium, and high, with corresponding approximate temperature ranges. Low heat is typically around 200-300°F, medium is 300-400°F, and high is 400-600°F. A pan is considered hot enough when a drop of water sizzles and evaporates, indicating a temperature between 212°F and 400°F. 
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Low Heat: 
    • Temperature: 200-300°F
    • Uses: Slow cooking, simmering, poaching, and smoking.
Medium Heat: 
    • Temperature: 300-400°F
    • Uses: Sautéing, cooking chicken, vegetables, omelets, pancakes, and steaks.
High Heat: 
    • Temperature: 400-600°F
    • Uses: Searing meat.
Determining if a pan is hot enough:
Water Test: Add a drop of water to the pan. If the water sizzles and evaporates, the pan is hot enough. If the water sits on the pan and slowly evaporates, it's not hot enough. 
Oil Test: Add oil to the pan. If the oil ripples and moves across the surface, it's ready. If the oil forms streaks, the pan is too cold. 
Surface Thermometer: Use a thermometer to measure the pan's surface temperature. 

For the more precise home cook, you can roughly mark what the different pan temperatures are: Low heat is 200° F to 300° F - for slow cooking and smoking. Medium heat is 300 ° F to 400 °F - for cooking chicken, vegetables, omelettes and pancakes, steaks or oil frying. High heat is 400° F to 600° F for searing meat.

Back in the 1980s a friend was bbqing pork backbone ribs, bone in, and when he flipped them he brushed them with a mixture he had made using real butter (1/2 stick) real lemon juice(2 lemons) white vinegar 1/2cup, heated in microwave to melt butter, when he brushed it on ribs they immediately had a shine/glazed look and he glazed them a few times, but those ribs were soooo tender and good, unreal. So here I am 45 yes later still using that same glaze and I'm always asked to make ribs at all family get togethers...Thanks to my old friend Mike P. Enjoy

 1. Chicken Curry    







 
Ingredients:
  • 1 lb chicken thighs or drumsticks (skinless, bone-in or boneless)
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tbsp garam masala
  • 1 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 1/2 tsp red chili powder (adjust to taste)
  • 1 (15 oz) can tomato sauce
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/2 cup water
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish
Instructions:
1. Marinate the Chicken: Combine chicken with half the garam masala, turmeric, cumin, and coriander. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
2. Brown the Chicken: Heat oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Brown the chicken on all sides, then set aside.
3. Sauté Aromatics: In the same skillet, cook the onion until softened. Add garlic and ginger, cooking until fragrant.
4. Add Spices: Stir in the remaining spices and cook for 1-2 minutes
5. Incorporate Wet Ingredients: Add tomato sauce, yogurt, and water. Simmer for 10 minutes.
6. Cook the Chicken: Return the chicken to the skillet, reduce heat, and simmer for 20-30 minutes until cooked through.
7. Adjust Seasoning: Taste and adjust with salt and pepper.
8. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with fresh cilantro and serve with rice or naan.
Feel free to tweak the recipe by adding vegetables like potatoes or carrots, or by adjusting the spice level. Let me know if you'd like tips on variations! 

What's the Difference Between Coriander and Cilantro?
Yes, cilantro is the same as coriander, but with a different name depending on what part of the plant you're referring to and where you are. In North America, "cilantro" typically refers to the fresh leaves and stems, while "coriander" refers to the dried seeds. In many other parts of the world, including the UK, the entire plant is often called coriander.

Book Note

Chapter 1

Another important invention that changed the organization of kitchens in the eighteenth century was the stove, or potager  汤类厨师,  which gave cooks a more practical and controllable heat source than an open fire. Soon commercial kitchens became divided into three departments

  • the rotisserie, under the control of the meat chef, or rôtisseur, 
  • the oven, under the control of the pastry chef, or pâtissier; 
  • and the stove, run by the cook, or cuisinier. 

The meat chef and pastry chef reported to the cuisinier, who was also known as chef de cuisine, which means "head of the kitchen."

Over my culinary tenure, I have worked within many culinary environments, Hawaii Islands, China, Philippines, New York.  What is amazing about our industry is that kitchens, and their staffs generate microcosms of the world, and as such micro communities with great diversity.  The school environment presents the same microcosms of infinite diversity, of which I strive to inspire students within that educational culinary environment toward their chosen career paths.

Brief History: My first career path was in the Arts, as a New York artist and sculptor. My second life reincarnation and journey had me attending the Culinary Institute of America at 34 years of age creating a series of experiences opening my life and world to a multitude of culinary adventures. I was the oldest student in all my classes, and proof positive that age is just a number, and that a person should follow their passion at whatever age... I did, and I am having an exciting career through cuisine.

Finally, I view my leadership style promotes a strong focus on student experience driven education.   DVW 09/14/21
