Nicole dropping her phone and not being able to pick it up because her pants are too tight is just so real and relatable. Yet again, a very informative podcast. Learned a few things, especially after cooking chicken today! And some cleaning tips :)
@sarahvnyc
My mom is a run-under-the-faucet chicken washer and got campylobacter after preparing chicken at home. (Campylobacter is also a bacteria spread by raw chicken, similar to salmonella.) She had to go to the ER and almost was admitted to the hospital. She got so sick she has been turned off of eating chicken for years. It's so hard to be sanitary when you are touching the whole chicken with both hands, touching the faucet, spraying water everywhere, etc. Just don't do it. If you simply must rinse it, do it with the bowl like they said.
@shadebug
“Hot water. Always sanitise your sink” Unless you’re using a kettle, you’re not sanitising it with “hot” water. If you can stand to have your hand in there then what you have is water at the ideal temperature for bacteria to thrive. Even if you do manage to have water above 60°C coming out of the tap, it’s going to cool the moment it hits your sink. The cleaning and sanitisation is done by your detergent. Hot water is there to cut through grease

The soap, in lay-man's terms, both ruptures germ cell's walls and also creates little packages of hydrophobic lipid-based bubbles called "Micelles" that are more easily removed from lipophilic surfaces!

Nicole and Josh just keep getting prettier every year... omg ❤
@Saternalia
Just because Josh stated that he wasn't sure I wanted to chime in. The USDA will recommend a temperature of 165 to kill salmonella bacteria. That being said, household disinfectants will kill salmonella bacteria with the asterisk that you need to follow certain contact times. Contact time is defined as the amount of time that you allow a chemical compound to be in contact with the surface that you're cleaning before you wipe or rinse it off. For salmonella a lot of stronger disinfectants will do the job with a contact time of 1 to 5 minutes. So yes, you can disinfect your cooking surface and make it safe from salmonella.

A video about how chefs organize their home kitchens would be so coollll

I find washing my meat gives a cleaner less gamey taste or smell (if you will) to the final product e.g the gravy or sauce that will drown your meal at then ene as it should. I won’t always wash my chicken especially when roasting or deep frying, but if I’m simmering it or braising it in a liquid I definitely will.

WAIT I'VE BEEN HOPING THEY'D TALK ABOUT THIS

In puerto rico we make sandwiches with a potted meat and cheese whiz spread for parties and stuff
@giovannispagnoli8040
I just looked up if both acid and bleach kill bacteria. Salmonella is definitely not one of the bacterias in the 1% of bacteria that don't die from bleach or hand sanitizer. So continue cleaning your sinks with bleach or soap, and keep putting acid on your chicken, but mainly because that just tastes good. But dont wash your chicken, it's definitely pointless. I can understand dabbing chicken with a papertowel however to help with browning.
@NaeMorris0318
Washing chicken is kind of a cultural thing. Most if not all black people wash their chicken and really all meat. I mainly do it to get the juices and stuff off of the chicken that it was sitting in while in the packaging. I grew up being told you need to wash your meat.
@MN-ys2pe
I’m so happy they’re talking about this cause every new point I learn, the more confused I get 😭
@ellamarie.elephant
Myth Munchers on this please! Love what y'all do!
@balen4224
I never understood why chicken had to be washed but every other meat was fine out of the package. Though I never had anyone ever try to explain it to me, they just said it's what you do for chicken.
@bay4384
I’ve seen people say they wash it to get rid of the bone dust traces??? Like yall are literally eating meat manage your expectations
@abcoh4440
I use a kitchen spray (in Spain) that cleans all bacteria ( I believe is some sort of chlorine?). I use it in countertops and sink every time I cook. Its quick and does the job. I've never heard of people washing the chicken tho.
@bronwynecg
I have never washed a chicken in my life. Since I haven’t died or gotten sick from chicken germs, it’s a non-issue.
@whitneym.9358
Cleaning is already the part of cooking that stresses me out the most and hearing all the things I'm supposed to be doing every time I cook is making me want to switch to an all-microwave diet.
