Hmm, well using it for chicken soup does make some sense I guess. Might be useful for a pandemic stash.

LemmyKnowsBest,

What’s that she said about peanut butter sauce? What’s that got to do with cold gelled canned whole chicken?

omfg lmaoo im seriously crying from laughter 🤣…hhold up…🤣🤣…

why would anyone think a recipe clled sticky chicky dump chicken with those four ingredients taste anything but terrible? lol and people where complaining that it tasted like peanut butter spread on chicken!! lmaoo why would it taste like anything else?? it’s literally that with a spoon of soy sauce mixed in! omg im laughing so hard 😆 yet, there was still someone that said that they liked it. imagine what they usually eat to give this 5 stars 🤢

that recipe has to be a troll. it cant be for real.

apparently that great depression era style canned chicken is $25, so theyre paying like 5 times more than if they would have used a frozen chicken. i wouldnt trust the decisions of anyone that has seriously tried that recipe out.

gmtom,

This is why Americans are the only country that doesn’t get to insult British food.

Asafum,

IDK, my Memphis style ribs and blackened burger with caramelized onions and blue cheese begs to differ.

But I don’t really know much about British food aside for the jokes about depressing bean dishes and of course the “English breakfast.” Lol

I literally just ate and I’m making myself hungry again thinking about those ribs…

gmtom,

Sorry I forget Americans don’t get banter.

BirdyBoogleBop,

That’s because you haven’t had the perfect british dish ever created! Chicken tikka masala, the most british dish you could ever find. Beloved by all. Very British. Definitely not from, influenced, or inspired by any other country or its diaspora. Nope…

Whats wrong with the English breakfast? You definitely didn’t have one you’d be full until dinner time otherwise.

aidan,

American living abroad, food is one of the things I miss the most, and not just classic American foods. But, outside of extremely large metropolises, international options are often lacking in European cities in general.

gmtom,

But, outside of extremely large metropolises, international options are often lacking in European cities in general.

That’s true in America too no? Like from my experience even fairly large towns just have the major fast food brands and not much else, unless they’re on the southern border.

aidan,

Not at all, this is just relevant because its one of the types of food I miss the most, but in my city in the US of like 500,000, there were like 5 Ethiopian restaurants. I now live in a European capital city, with millions of people. If I wanted Ethiopian food I’d have to go to another country.

gmtom,

Can I ask what city because there only 10 cities in Europe with a population in the multi millions and pretty sure all would have Ethiopian food even if its quite niche.

And I’m sure I could pick some big cities in the US that are missing certain cuisines that are common in Europe. Like does Charlotte NC or Jacksonville have any Polish restaurants? Or Morocco restaurants? As in my limited experience you’ll be lucky to get a “”“European”“” or “”“Mediterranean”“” resturaunt at best outside of the most major cities with large inmigrsnt populations like LA and New York.

aidan,

Prague, I’ve never seen a Polish restaurant here- though I’m sure it exists. And checking Google maps I can find 1 Moroccan restaurant here.

Also, there is a fair amount of good Polish food, its definitely far better than Czech food. But it’s not at all comparable to Indian, Ethiopian, Chinese, or Korean foods which while they all exist in Prague(except Ethiopian) are generally much worse than in the US, unless you happen to know the basically secret menu items to order that aren’t adapted to the local taste. The one thing I will say is far more abundant for quality than in the US is Vietnamese food here. And German Kebab but if I include fast food then I’ll start ranting about how bad the pizza is here.

gmtom,

That explains a lot. Eastern Eruope isn’t nearly as culturally diverse as the west/central…

much worse than in the US, unless you happen to know the basically secret menu items to order that aren’t adapted to the local taste

I wonder why the American thinks the restursunts adapted to American tastes are better than the resturaunts adapted to Czech tastes.

aidan,

I wonder why the American thinks the restursunts adapted to American tastes are better than the resturaunts adapted to Czech tastes.

I’m also Czech, but yes, Czech food is usually bland. Furthermore, I’m not talking about the American tastes, majority of my friends here are foreigners, I’m talking about the menu’s adapted to Chinese and Indian tastes.

Donkter,

I think that’s kind of true. There’s no “traditional” restaurants from other countries, but in every small town in America you can have a choice between “Italian” food(both “fancy” restaurants like olive garden and pizza) “Chinese” food, “Mexican” food and the occasional gyro shop, German place or Indian place.

gmtom,

Yeah same in Europe for the most part. There are a few places I’ve been that are very rural and traditional, that don’t have that, especially out east or in countries like Italy, but most towns have your typical Chinese, Italian and indian/Greek/Turkish place sending on the specific area.

Diplomjodler,

Have you people never heard of chicken soup?

Actionschnils,

Obviously they never cooked one

dream_weasel,

If I’m making chicken soup, WHY would I start with canned meat? It’s like buying the shittiest plain cake at the store to bring home and decorate with your own, painstakingly homemade frosting.

Chicken carcasses to make soup/broth base (and get some of the meat) is all stuff you would otherwise throw away and is basically the same effort yeah?

No, the point is that if you’ve made one, you wouldnt be disgusted by this picture. The Chicken looks quite the same during the process. An they are somehow, because both are boiled chickens. But still i would always prefer the self made chicken.

dream_weasel,

That’s 2 cans over.

UsernameIsTooLon,

It looks nasty but I bet you that “gelatin” actually makes for some fantastic stock

SpruceBringsteen,

If you love Buffalo chicken dip you’ve probably enjoyed this type of chicken before.

MacNCheezus,
@MacNCheezus@lemmy.today avatar

I looked up the ingredients and apparently it’s only chicken, water, and salt, so it’s gotta be the chicken’s own stock (since it’s fully cooked).

Looks disgusting I guess but I suppose it’s far healthier than many of the more delicious looking products the food industry churns out every day.

UsernameIsTooLon,

It looks disgusting cuz it’s canned and cold lol. Whenever I cook with real chicken or even beef and there’s broth leftover, it will turn into slight gelatin due to the collagen in the bones! There is flavor and protein in there. It’ll just liquidify when you heat it up and it’s some seasonings and a pinch of flour away from being gravy too.

Wild how cooking can get when you start to understand ingredients more

leaky_shower_thought,

some people take their canning process to the extremes.

as an aside, I’ve never seen a canned pickle product. I guess they stopped at chicken.

grue, (edited )

as an aside, I’ve never seen a canned pickle product.

What? Lots and lots of pickles are canned (all the ones at the store, except for some of the refrigerated ones). They just do it in glass jars instead of metal.


Edit: I don’t know why I’m being downvoted for stating a fact. Shelf-stable pickles (that aren’t lacto-fermented) like this…

https://i5.walmartimages.com/asr/54c653b9-123a-42ad-9243-02a1e48761bb_1.96b3de8a150831f17f90aba4a13675b8.jpeg

…are, in fact, considered “canned.” If you don’t believe me, call up Vlasic yourself and ask them if “canning” accurately describes their manufacturing process. The number is right there on the jar in the picture: 1-800-421-3265.


Edit 2: Just to be even more clear, pickles like this:

https://i5.walmartimages.com/asr/50b16be7-714f-4841-bd46-935984c27ac3_1.26fc87d62cbf82d9b1deff8495101b06.jpeg

Are not canned. The difference isn’t the container (which has exactly the same kind of “lug” or “twist-off” lid as the Vlasic jar), but the fact that this one isn’t pasteurized and has a warning label telling you to keep it refrigerated.

LemmyKnowsBest,

When something is put into a can, it’s considered canned.

When something is put into a jar, it’s considered jarred.

Lawyerator,

Where is your god now, mortal?!

DAMunzy,

Checkmate! Google en passant.

grue,
grue,

Nope. When something is heat-sterilized and preserved in a sealed container via water bath or pressure, it’s considered “canned” regardless of what type of container it is. That’s why things like this…

https://cdnimg.webstaurantstore.com/images/products/xxl/518394/1916334.jpg

…are called “canning jars” and not just “jars,” and why using them to preserve food is, in fact, called “canning.”

Wizard_Pope,
@Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world avatar

Mayhaps in english. Maybe he is not form an english speaking country. I myself am not and canning here is exclusively for metal cans and jarring has a separate word.

I find it jarring to hear canning in glass containers called jarring.

LemmyKnowsBest,

now that you say it, when I think of the word jarring I think of it as an adjective like surprising, shocking.

That’s what the girl in the video mentioned here did, and it didn’t seem to turn out that great.

Perhaps using it for soup, as many other commenters have suggested, is the better move here.

Heikki,

I want to see a prochef use this for a recipe.

My best guess use would be to use it for a stock and make a soup or chili. Might work any application poached chicken is needed.

MacNCheezus,
@MacNCheezus@lemmy.today avatar

I want to see a prochef use this for a recipe.

Probably not going to happen. I watched the review mentioned in this comment and the verdict was that isn’t not particularly flavorful when just baked in the oven, as the can apparently recommends.

Does sound like a decent option for making soup, however. Especially during a pandemic.

Heikki,

The channel i was thinking of is Epicurious. They have some videos using canned tuna that look edible, at least. There is an example in the link.

MacNCheezus,
@MacNCheezus@lemmy.today avatar

Oh I see, so the point is making a pro chef use an extremely cheap and common canned food and turn it into a gourmet meal?

Good concept, sign me up.
