Hanger Steak, and One Good Way to Cook it | Kenji's Cooking Show
Переглядів 257 тис.Місяць тому
There are many ways to cook a hanger steak, but this one is a good one. Hanger is a little more difficult to cook than a chop like a ribeye or a NY-strip because of its texture. It's very loose-grained so if undercooked it tastes almost slippery and chewy, while overcooked it gets tough and ropy very fast. You gotta hit that medium-rare to medium range and slice it against the grain before serv...

How I Handle the Smelt I'm Dealt | Kenji's Cooking Show

I love smelts! They are traditionally prepared very, very simply with nothing but a flour dredge. This process will also work for small, thin fish filets (though for a crispier fish and chips-style coating, refer to the recipe for fried fish in my first book, The Food Lab). This chicken recipe is simple and delicious. You can follow along with the video, or if you want a fully written recipe, y...

    This video would be perfect if you could turn your mic off when you eat at the end, lol. Of course, there very well could be a significant number of people watching who enjoy the sound of your chewing. Ah well. Thanks for another wonderful video!

    Hi Kenji, I applied this technique to chicken breast and it came super tender and juicy! I was wondering, is it possible to apply this technique to large amount of meat and then freeze some of it for later use? Or should i wash off the baking soda before freezing? Thank you!!

    Looks delicious! Will definitely be making this pan sauce! As a long time fan and with only love I would ask you to please stop using "vegetable oils" especially sauteeing and roasting.. So much evidence emerging about negative health effects from these seed oils and especially when heated. Just use ghee or tallow instead. I know it's not as convenient from a culinary perspective but it only takes a second to scoop out some ghee instead. The flavor is much better as well. Again only love!

    Hi Kenji! There are two errors in the recipe in the description: 1: For the Sauce: Combine soy sauce, wine, vinegar, oyster sauce, and chicken stock or water Error: Should not have 'chicken stock or water' 2: Cook, tossing, until sauce thickens and the chicken is cooked through. Error: 'chicken' should be 'beef'

    I have always put S&P in the wet beaten egg and my wife always asked what my secret is with eggs. I never knew that it retained the moisture I would have thought the opposite! Thanks for making this. I also add a splash of milk to the beaten eggs. Not sure why but it was always something my grandparents and parents did.

    I had a friend in college that said they added water when beating their eggs cause it made there be "more egg" after cooking. I thought that was ridiculous at the time but now that I know about moisture retention with the salting method I'm curious what your thoughts are. Does adding water to beaten eggs stay in the egg or does it just add additional steam to fluff eggs more?
