Pot Roast Question- The core part of the meat is still frozen, can I start the cooking process anyways?
Hi, I am making a pot roast chuck for dinner tomorrow night and I wanted to brown the meat and leave it overnight to marinate tonight. So here is the question, the meat is mostly defrosted except the core section. Do you think I can brown the meat now before the whole thing is defrosted, like does it make any difference? Thanks
What is a good substitute for sake in cooking?
I am 16 and have been experimenting with Japanese food. I clearly cannot buy sake to cook with, so I was wondering what the best non alcoholic substitute for sake would be. Obviously I'm not going to be trying anything too dependent on it, just for simple recipes. I have both mirin and rice vinegar but I remain unsure which would be a better substitute, if either.
