>take chicken breast out of freezer>no inner filet, so that big tendon isn't there (i pull that out with a fork anyway)>defrost in a closed plastic bag submerged in hot water>cook chicken in airfryer or oven>cut into stripsand then invariably out of 15 or so pieces, 1-2 of them taste like complete ASSwhat's wrong? when i eat chicken at other peoples' places it doesn't taste like this.
>>75728728>freezing your meatAmericans (or poor fags) are sick in the head
defrost in room temp water not hot
>>75728758but is it related to the taste?
>>75728733Holy fuck every country wishes they were america so badly that you "people" need to get upset over every single thing we do. WE DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT THE REST OF YOU, GET OFF OUR DICKS.>>75728728>thaw in hot waterThere's your problem. Hot water promotes bacteria growth and starts to cook the chicken. Use cold water. It's still warmer than ice but won't cook the meat. Also the meat could be bad if it was frozen for too long.
>>75728767I think the comment refers to the fact that Americans typically only shop once a week/month(?), so have to freeze all their meat, while, say, euros would do their daily shopping for their daily needs.I presume this is how it works based on the fact that Americans have to drive some distance to get to the Walmart/Costco/Whole Foods/whatever while euros probably have a supermarket within walking distance around the corner
>>75728758>>75728767did some googling now and the warm water is obviously bad. I still wonder if my ass taste is directly related to that. i have a hard time thinking it's bacteria, but if the chicken starts to cook partially then maybe that's an issue. then again I only defrost it for 30 minutes, then it's straight into the airfryergoing to try the cold water method or just airfry it in frozen formi buy big pack frozen chicken because i don't use up the 6 breasts you get when buying them fresh
>>75728728How long did they sit?I recently defrosted some drumsticks that had sat for a long time and when I opened the bag they smelled like feet so I threw them out.
>>75728733>chicken >REEEEEEEEE AMERICANSUse some of that free Healthcare that your mother pays taxes for to get mental help.
Get 6 fresh chicken boobies with skin onGet baking sheet with metal rack.Lay out on rackBrush liberally with melted butter.Salt + pepper + thyme (dry or fresh)Bake at 425F for like 18 minutesPut in glass food storage container and eat one or two a day. Probably had less than 5 go spoiled over 2+ years of doing this meal prep.Freezing fucks the texture.Don't put anything heated near plastic that touches food.No idea why you're having your issue though anon.
