Chicken broth is really warm chicken bath water

[rivalarrival@lemmy.today]

Simmering is actually around 185F in most of the pot. There are some hot spots at the bottom of the pot that get hot enough to form water vapor, but at simmering temperatures, that vapor recondenses before breaking the surface.

"Boiling" starts around 205F. A rolling boil is around 210F.

Idk, Japanese onsen baths are really, really hot. Maybe not literally boiling, but I felt like it was. And hot baths for sore muscles wouldn't be a whole thing if it wasn’t producing some kind of tenderizing effect.

(I'm mostly saying this is jest. Mostly.)

Oh. I wish you hadn’t told me that…

It does affect the texture and cook time.

If you're planning to eat the corpse, keep it low so it doesn't get chewy. If you're just making broth or doesn't really matter.

What kinda altitude are we talking about here?

Assuming you remove your bones and skin for a good soak as part of your bathing process, sure.

You. I like you.

Let he who doesn’t bathe with onions, carrots, celery, bay leaves, salt, and pepper cast the first stone.

I've never killed a chicken by making soup out of it.

Best chicken broth is salty.
Best baths are salty.

[captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works]

John Oliver once called chicken soup "salty bird water."

Either way, that’s always highly disconcerting.

What are you doing with your chickens???
