    Does anyone know the rules restaurants follow to pass health inspections?

    In particular the rules on NY state? Are open tissue boxes a violation?

    Shredded Taco Chicken Recipe.

    I was trying to recreate a version of the spicy shredded chicken they had once at Taco Bell. So Mexican authenticity isn't what I'm going for. Lol.

    Shredded Taco Chicken Recipe.

    Actually it was plenty moist. It just didn't shred very easy at all. I was thinking it would be like beef falling apart in a stew. Just loose strands.

    Shredded Taco Chicken Recipe.

    https://houseofyumm.com/mexican-chicken/ I tried this recipe but it didn't look much like the picture. The chicken was tough to shred with a fork. Any tips? Two forks to pull apart because it's very hot? Chicken wasn't red like it is in picture. I cooked for 15 minutes covered. Temp was 180F...

    Why are triglycerides listed as an ingredient in some foods/drinks?

    I can't be sure Gatorade could taste that bad without any added sweeteners. Lots of stuff say no sugar, but there's always something else to get around the technicality. Maybe sports drinks should be the electrolytes formula only, and offer instructions to add apple juice or something more...

    Why are triglycerides listed as an ingredient in some foods/drinks?

    My initial question wasn't about why too many triglycerides are bad. I think everyone knows that they are. I was asking what chemical purpose adding them as an ingredient in food would have.

    Why are triglycerides listed as an ingredient in some foods/drinks?

    Know what the purpose might be in Gatorade or a gluten-free recipe?

    Orange Cranberry Bread glaze.

    I read the process of making powdered sugar from refining the granulated destroys the molecules making it taste less sweet. The glaze tastes kind of bitter. Tasted better on bread next day though.

    Orange Cranberry Bread glaze.

    Looks like your linked page instructs to blenderize granulated sugar even finer. Can't it just be heated and dissolved?

    Why are triglycerides listed as an ingredient in some foods/drinks?

    What role do triglycerides play in food science? I know in the blood one doesn't want high triglycerides made from sugars, but what are straight up triglycerides used for as a listed ingredient?

    Orange Cranberry Bread glaze.

    https://sweetteaandsprinkles.com/orange-cranberry-bread/ I tried this recipe. Turned out pretty good, but I don't think the glaze was very good. Might of been better plain. As it turns out powdered sugar is less sweet than granulated sugar and may spike glucose more. Anyway to make glaze with...

    Thin Crust Pizza. Any pointers?

    My understanding is circa 2007 they changed to frozen to help save on labor. I think the original recipe for pan dough is out there. Not sure when the thin crust came into existence.

    Restaurants that use food labels that can survive the oven??

    Blaze pizza is a big franchise? Know what the things are called?

    Thin Crust Pizza. Any pointers?

    I think we have one of those. I think we use it to reduce spatter when using the skillet.

    Thin Crust Pizza. Any pointers?

    I don't know. I think it came in frozen. I was a driver so I don't know much. Much of the dough is made elsewhere these days.

    Restaurants that use food labels that can survive the oven??

    I work at a pizza place and we usually put a mushroom or green pepper on pizzas to indicate something special like light sauce, extra sauce, well done, light bake, extra something, etc. I guess it can get confusing between reading a bunch of tags that all have something customized and trying to...

    Thin Crust Pizza. Any pointers?

    The cracker pizza they make? I have wondered about that crust. It worked pretty well for dessert pizzas. I used to work at PH.

    Thin Crust Pizza. Any pointers?

    I guess that's an idea, but the pan would still be very hot. What temperatures can parchment reach? Would it burn to the dough?

    Thin Crust Pizza. Any pointers?

    Would it work to bake halfway on pizza pan, then transfer to preheated cookie sheet left in oven when it reached 500 for last 5 minues? The pan is actually pretty thick and might not reach temp quick enough, and I don't want to burn myself pressing dough out on hot pan.

    Apple cookies & Grating ingredients.

    https://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/a40272839/apple-cookie-recipe/ I tried out this recipe because I had apples left over from various apple crisp versions. Is there a best way to grate ingredients? I found apples challenging, and ginger root can also be tough. 80% of the time I will...

    First time making Apple Crisp.

    It hasn't worked yet, and it's kind of watery as is. Even when I forgot to add the lemon juice. I replaced 1/2 stick of butter with 1/4 cup coconut oil. I like the flavor better this way. I cooked for 45 minutes instead of the recipe's 55 to 70 minutes. The apples were completely cooked, but...
