boiling is the worst way to cook food
this includes bagels, shellfish, even hot pot
pasta is only good because you immediately put tasty non-boiled stuff on it before you eat it
I will not be taking questions at this time

I disagree. Boiling is the best way to make food soft.
Another victim of Big Sous Vide.
sous vide is dangerously close to boiling, so it’s suspicious, but still acceptable. for now
Counter-point: boiling bagels before their initial bake makes them so much fluffier on the inside
what about pretzels ?? boiling is essential.
also is pasta sauce not technically boiled ???
this is an objectively wrong take but i will like and repost because it is delightful bait
ooh good point!
counter-counter-point: they’re still bagels
pretzels are a strange exception
they’re boiled! but they’re…tolerable to eat? sometimes even good? what sorcery, what accursed monster, what spooky action at a distance have our modern pretzel chefs raised from the murky depths?
we may never know
Aren’t bagels definitionally boiled?
the water becomes sauce. you don’t take the tomatoes back out of the water later
agreed though, it’s confusing
Wait, what?
Actuallyβ¦in this case you do. πBlanching is boil the tomatoes for a minute. Take them out. Dunk em in cold water. Peel slides off. Same method for peaches. Thatβs the theory. Personally, if I want peeled tomatoes, Iβll buy them canned. π
spoken like someone who’s never had a good milk steak
I’ll exclude boiling in liquids other than water
Consider the beauty of spaghetti all’assassina
boiling a bagel?! never heard of that
Before doing their first bake, yup! Not pre-made ones
ohhh, was gonna say lol. over here I only see bagels in their packaged forms lol
