What is a good substitute for ground veal? @MandoMando most calves used to make veal are bull calves, they're not treated any different from any other calf that's then raised to adulthood. A more important reason to want substitutes would be unavailability (see that here, just can't get any veal, it's all exported to where the price is better) or high price (could special order it, paying 2-3 times the price of already expensive beef). |

Lining a frying pan with aluminum foil to reduce post-cooking cleanup? @SAJ14SAJ did research on that now almost 20 years ago. A burner in a home gas stove can heat the steel surface of the stove directly around it to over 1000C. The inside of your pan won't reach that high, but don't underestimate the power of those burners. |

Lining a frying pan with aluminum foil to reduce post-cooking cleanup? worse, the gunk that accumulates between the foil and the surface of the pan will make the foil very hard to remove, making the cleanup job much harder than had the foil not been there at all. |

Is horse meat safe to eat? the "passport" system would not have worked in this case anyway as the meat was imported from south america, it was not obtained from EU bred horses. What I don't know is whether the importer was aware it was horse meat, iow on which side of the supply chain the fraud was perpetrated. |

New to jam making - do I need to can? @ttothet another reason is that Turks are notorious for loving their sweets :) But yes, they would have started preserving in honey and later sugar for lack of other means I guess, long ago, just like the English and Dutch among others started preserving in salt. |

How much tea is ideal out of one tea bag? All depends on the cup, the bag, and how strong you want the tea to be. There's teabags measured for a single cup, others are measured for a pot. Age of the tea, desired strength, etc. all have influence as well. |

Do canned kidney beans contain Toxins? @SAJ14SAJ your comment is still valid though, if those beans were poisonous people'd have died or fallen ill in their millions by now as a result of eating them. |

Is eating road kill a health-hazard? many restaurants I've been to in coastal and lakeside locations allow customers to bring in their catch (fish, obviously) and the restaurant will serve it for you cooked up. Can't see why it'd not be different with a restaurant allowing you to bring in your freshly killed hare or deer for them to prepare :) But yes, the law's likely different. |

Is eating road kill a health-hazard? @OldCurmudgeon if it's like here in the Netherlands, that law exists because police officers have a healthy side trade selling roadkill to butchershops who butcher the animals and sell the meat... Which should tell you something about whether roadkill is safe to eat (IF fresh of course, I'd not pick up a random cadaver I see, could have been there for days for all I know). |

Botulism, Garlic, Cold pressed Olive oil and mason jars Andy, so anything I propose to reduce your risk of injury is so good you immediately want it turned into law? Let's start with requiring everyone to wear a full crash suit (as worn by racing car drivers) 24/7, with a biohazard suit on top of that. After all, it will greatly reduce the risk of injury to people so it must be good. |

Difference between natural and organic @Flimzy botulism, anthrax, Ebola, are all "natural". While not used as pesticides, there are those who consider human beings to be pests and they work very well against human beings. Just because something is "natural" then doesn't make it safe. Similarly, a lot of things that aren't "natural" are quite safe. The whole "natural pesticide" thing together with "organic farming" is just bunch of balony, pure marketing trickery to fool people into paying excessively high prices for otherwise ordinary (and often substandard) produce. |

What is the ideal fridge temperature in fact, cheese matures better when not refrigerated and will taste better as a result. That doesn't mean room temperature though, but a cool but not cold place in the fridge (which larger European fridges often provide in a compartment where there's no cooling but is connected through air vents to the cooled area). |

Why do hamburger patties have ridges on one side? which doesn't explain why the pattern exists only on one side (or rather, why is the press designed to apply the pattern on only one side, and not the other). I've seen patties that have patterns on both sides, but they're not as common as those having them on one side only (or none at all). |

How to ensure that eggs get hard boiled on a gas stove? well, colder eggs obviously will take longer to reach the point where the proteins start to degenerate, so longer cooking time is obvious. But it won't be much longer, variations in water temperature will have a larger impact. |

What is the difference between white and green asparagus? best thing (if not only good thing) about asparagus is soup. And you can use even the worst bits for soup (take take the fibrous parts when done cooking and throw away). |
