>makes roast potatoes crispy as fuck
>>21783124>Cures my heartburn after eating like a pig
ok new recipe invented: potatoes dipped in lye water and baked. just like pretzels
the baking of the soda crispens the potato
>>21783124incorrect as all you're doing is making the baking soda crispy by roasting it.if you want crispy potatoes you use schmaltz.
>>21783270um actually the baking soda breaks down the poato on a cellular level. nice try though little boy
>>21783283sodium bicarbonate and potato starch have zero interactive properties with each other.try again.
>>21783330they do when roasted
>>21783330there's more in potatoes than potato starch. such as the substance that holds them together. and this substance. reacts with bicarb.sorry about that.
>>21783231the sodium of the bicarbonate potatos the soda
>>21783124>>21783231>>21783372The roasting of the soda bakes the potato
>>21783126Fpbp
>>21783339roasting potato temperature is too low for the sodium or the bicarbonate to illicit a reaction from the heat catalyst.try again. >>21783369the water of the potato doesn't change the sodium or the bicarbonate, neither does the potassium ionic exchange that takes place.try again.
>>21783449dude it breaks down pectin
>>21783464this causes soupy potatoes, not crispy ones.once again, you're just baking the baking soda into a crust on the potato.the potato itself does not get crunchy.
>>21783480whatever it is, it makes them crispier and brown nicer
>>21783449>illicit
>>21783480A sprinkling of baking soda on the outside of a potato will not make it soupy.Baking soda is well-known to work for this. You don't know what you're talking about and the longer it goes on the sillier you look.
>>21783636can confirm. I boiled the cubed potatoes in plain salted water, then drained and mixed some oil, baking soda and salt together before adding to the boiled potatoes and baking. they were crispy as heck and no soupyness like if you add the baking soda to the water.
>>21783449sprinkle platinum particles to enhance catalyzation. simple as. some nyc chef is gonna take my shitpost and turn it into the new gold leaf burger or whatever
How can you use this for food? I brush my teeth with baking soda 1nce a day and it's salty/sour as fuck
>>21783124>salt in the baking soda containerangry.jpg
>>21783636>A sprinkling of baking soda on the outside of a potato will not make it soupynobody said it would.what i said was that baking soda and pectin reaction creates soupy potatoes.and i also clearly stated that the oven does not get hot enough to catalyze that reaction.
>>21784009>and i also clearly stated that the oven does not get hot enough to catalyze that reaction.it feels like you're just trying to sound smart but you don't really know what you're talking about. you can tenderize raw meat with baking soda, so it works at low temperatures. baking soda wash is already used on breads to give it a brown crust with a chewy texture so it works in the oven. i dunno what reaction you think isn't being catalyzed.
