Safe mayonnaise

Forum topic

Hello all,

I'd like to make mayonnaise or aioli that would last more then a few days in the fridge, without me being worried about the danger of eating raw eggs.
obviously I need to pasteurize the yolks. 
would the Hollandaise sauce method do?! any notes?
thanks

ACJ 025| Should Aspiring Chef's Go to Culinary School

Podcast - Main

Here is a question I get quite a bit, so I figured I'd answer it in an episode of ACJ for anyone in the future:

"Chef Jacob, my question is probably one you have heard before.  I am a home chef of over 30 years and I want to get to the next level in cooking, professional work.  I have the option of going to school or working my way up through a professional kitchen with a international hotel chain kitchen.

Mezzaluna

Forum topic

 Anybody know which Mezzaluna is better suited to salads, not one specifically for herbs. Here's  a video of  a guy doing what I want to do. What is the instrument he is using to chop everything so effectively?

Sous Vide - Beef Brisket

Forum topic

I have piece of beef brisket that weighs 1032 grams (2.27 lb) that is 1.27 inches thick. I pulled the meat out of a curing brine today. I am planning on making pastrami/corned beef in a vacuum bag.

The game plan is to season the brisket, bag and sous vide for 12 hours at 185 degrees F (167 C).. I am treating the meat like my wood smoker. After the sous vide cooking, the meat will go into the smoker with hickory wood with fresh seasoning.

What I am asking about is the time and temperature for the sous vide water bath.

Thanks

Deli Meats

Forum topic

I love sandwiches. Soups and sandwiches all day erry day.

Deli meat is mostly processed expensive swollen meat loaded with salt and water. I know I can do better. I already have on roast beef. I was wondering if anyone would like to discuss their own deli meat at home tricks.

I have an Anova and recently did a 138/24hours round roast and sliced it up. The flavor was awesome, the texture i feel like i could have gotten it more tender. I have a real deli slicer, not a home one, and i think i could have brought it down another stop. Will continue to tweak.

Sous Vide - Beans

Forum topic

I am very new to sous vide and want to learn.

So I found this recipe for sous vide beans in a 1 quart canning jar to finish in 6 hours at 190 F by a trained chef and book author. Works for me since I do not have to watch the beans.By the not this site!!!

So, I measured out 225 grams of beans (as per recipe) and placed in a wide mouth glass canning jar and filled the jar up with water to about 1/2 inch of the jar rim (as per recipe). The authors' picture looked like the bean was Navy beans by size.

brisket and pulled beef barbacoa

Forum topic

I see a lot of chefs online using cvap cook and hold cabinets. I only have a holding cabinet but it runs on the same technology, eg. the bain-marie at the base. Yes, the cook and hold can brown amongst other things. Browning aside, can I not slow cook meats in my holding cabinet?
