Tips:Silver skin:
You need a sharp knife to remove silver skin.
Silver skin is a membrane; if left on, it can cause the meat to curl during cooking.
Silver skin is unpleasant to bite into in a cooked piece of meat; it is extremely tough, and cannot really be chewed.
Searing, tenting, and resting meat:
Searing is a very high-heat, fast cooking method used to brown the exterior of the meat and produce a nice crisp crust; searing adds flavor to meat and seals in the juices.
Tent meat to keep it warm while resting, but don’t let foil touch meat, as this affects crust and does not give it the room it needs to rest.
Meat needs to rest so that the juices redistribute throughout the piece of meat. If you cut into the meat immediately, you lose at least half of its juices.
Cleaning mushrooms:
Wipe the surfaces of mushrooms clean with a kitchen towel or paper towels.
Do not clean mushrooms ahead of time, or they may turn a more brownish color.
Do not soak mushrooms in water.
Deglazing:
Deglazing is the process of adding a small amount of liquid to a hot pan that has just been used to saute, and then scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to loosen the flavorful browned bits, or fond.
Various wines or alcohol, or stock or broth are the most common deglazing liquids.
Deglazing is often used to make an accompanying sauce.
Recipe Rescues:Meat sticks to the pan while searing – Don’t try to tear the meat away from the pan. Add a little more oil to the pan. Make sure oil is hot and shimmering before adding meat.
Mushrooms are getting soggy, not browned – Let them cook undisturbed until browned, at least 5 minutes. Stirring them or moving them around prevents them from browning.
The flame got too large when alcohol is added to the pan – Always remove the pan from the heat when adding alcohol. When the flame goes down, it is fine to return the pan to the heat.
This trip, Guy Fieri's checkin' in with some of the funkiest Flavortown tastemakers. First, a wicked-good waffle spot in Syracuse, N.Y., moved to a bigger downtown location, still crankin' the tunes and plating new knockouts like the-bomb bulgogi and real-deal Reuben waffles. Next, an Allston, Mass., joint is still bringing mega Mexican flavors to New England with top-shelf seafood and gourmet mushroom asada on scratch-made tortillas. And in Minneapolis, the home of the "Blucy" expanded to two brick-and-mortars, stuffin' their signature patties with ghost pepper cheese, then topping tots with killer queso and mojo pork.
