Do You Use Heat When You Cook?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434) 4 years ago

If you do use heat when you cook, what sort of heat do you use?

I have used electric heat, gas heat, and solar heat with which to cook.

If you don't use heat to cook, how do you cook, and what do you cook without heat?

Cooking on a electric stove sucks man!


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

Do you cook with electric heat, Irish?


myLot reputation of 93/100. Irishfrndly65 (8534)  4 years ago

nope


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

Do you cook with fire, Irish? Or the sun? No heat?


myLot reputation of 93/100. Irishfrndly65 (8534)  4 years ago

propane gas flames, or outside with mesquite wood.....


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

I have never tried cooking with wood, Irish. I usually have to light the wood with fire. I'll have to try cooking with mesquite wood some time.


myLot reputation of 93/100. Irishfrndly65 (8534)  4 years ago

Why is this not in the interest called, messing with your mind?


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

I don't mess with people's minds, Irish. I was inspired by another Cooking Discussion, and so I produced this one.


myLot reputation of 93/100. Irishfrndly65 (8534)  4 years ago

Um well yes, i have cooked without heat, sort of. It got pretty hot, things melted. By the time the cooking was done there was lots of gravy and the noodle was limp


myLot reputation of 34/100. zukepr (11761)  4 years ago

omg!!!
lmao


myLot reputation of 94/100. Goodie123 (7548)  4 years ago

w00tlol


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

I can't imagine that you'd ever cook without heat, Curly. I imagine things get rather steamy when you're cooking.

Just one noodle, Curly?


myLot reputation of 94/100. Goodie123 (7548)  4 years ago

Was probably a BIG noodle Trans.rolleyes


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

Oh yes, well then, a big noodle would make sense.


myLot reputation of 88/100. CurlyRed (3467)  4 years ago

Oh! The steam counts? Doh!

yes, just one noodle, trans. I have a very special noodle.


myLot reputation of 94/100. Goodie123 (7548)  4 years ago

A special Noodle.blinklol


myLot reputation of 88/100. CurlyRed (3467)  4 years ago

Oh yes Goodie, Very filling, very satisfying, and totally not fattening! I wouldnt settle for any other noodle, i love my noodle.


myLot reputation of 94/100. Goodie123 (7548)  4 years ago

I bet you do Curlylol

I use gas heat to cook with Trans.
I have used electric but gas cooks much quicker.
I tried using no heat once to cook,
And for some strange reason the food would not cook.rolleyes


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

Really, the food wouldn't cook with no heat, Goodie? That is strange.


myLot reputation of 97/100. Sissygrl (5760)   ranked 33 out of 8,636 in cooking  4 years ago

Goodie,

No heaty no cooky ?


myLot reputation of 94/100. Goodie123 (7548)  4 years ago

It was very strange indeed Trans and Sissy.
Mr Piggy had opened the oven and slammed the door,
So an hour later when I went to turn the roast,
I had no heat. AAAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

I bet you were in a great mood when you discovered that!!

Mr Piggy was very lucky I was back on my meds at the time.

better question is HOW do you cook without heat?
yes I use heat
I have an electric stove
or of course there is the microwave does that use heat technically?


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

I don't know about the microwave oven, but I think it counts because the food is hot.

5. myLot reputation of 94/100. betsyraeduke (1254)   4 years ago

Is this a trick question? Of course I use heat to cook. How can anything be cooked without heat? I have gas stove in my kitchen currently. Other places I have lived I have had an electric stove. So I have used electric and gas heat to cook. I have also cooked on a camp fire and a charcoal grill and I have used my microwave and crockpot, whatever kind of heat that is...I think that's it.


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

Oh, thanks for bringing up all those varieties of cooking with heat, betsyraeduke! I have used all of those methods as well.

We have an electric stove, and a microwave.. lol we dont really COOK anything in the microwave though.. just for reheating. I have only cooked on a propane stove once.. it was.. drunken.. and i made home made kraft dinner lol. The people i was drinking with made fun of me cause i could make ghetto food from scratch. lol. Idiots.

If you have no heat trans... are you really cooking ? is that possible or am i being narrow minded atm ?


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

I can't imagine you narrow minded, Sissygrl. I think that you pose a good question.


myLot reputation of 97/100. Sissygrl (5760)   ranked 33 out of 8,636 in cooking  4 years ago

i cant imagine it either. i try to give anything a chance.. well.. there are exceptions to every rule.. for example.. oh.. maybe i shouldnt talka bout that in a cooking discussion...

myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

I thought that you cooked cookies tonight, Its. How did you cook them? On your engine block. I have cooked on my engine block before.


myLot reputation of 87/100. itsmefaith (2222)  4 years ago

Here's my version of making cookies, Trans. Buy already made cookie dough, heat oven, put dough on pan, put in oven after preheated (although I don't always know when it's preheated), turn off oven in 17 minutes like package says.

Oh, and they still got a little burned. rolleyes


myLot reputation of 94/100. Goodie123 (7548)  4 years ago

Kindness and Patience are my middle names Faith.rolleyes

What did you cook on your engine block Trans,
And what type of engine was it.


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

Well, then, it sounds like you use heat to cook cookies, Its. I usually cook those sorts of cookies for half that time. I like them soft and gooey.


I cooked steak (with mushrooms and onions) and potatos while driving across the state, Goodie.


myLot reputation of 87/100. itsmefaith (2222)  4 years ago

I consider cooking a bit more creative than plopping dough on a tray, but I suppose you have a point, Hee!

Steak with mushrooms and onions sounds really good! Where were you driving to when you cooked it?


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

I don't remember. It was in my younger days. I think I was driving from Athens, Georgia to Savannah, Georgia.


myLot reputation of 87/100. itsmefaith (2222)  4 years ago

Did it work? How did it all taste when done?


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

Yes, it worked. The only problems I had was that I almost burned the steaks and also they weren't as secure as I had thought and some of the juices leaked out of the foil. Other than that, it was great.


myLot reputation of 87/100. itsmefaith (2222)  4 years ago

Hee! I wonder if I should try it on my drive back from NC in a couple of weeks? I'd probably blow up the rental car. rasp Then again, I guess better to blow up a rental than my own, right? whistle


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

Just make sure that you wrap it tightly in the foil. Don't use any plastic wrap! And make sure it's secure. And check it after a couple of hours driving - it doesn't take too long to cook!


myLot reputation of 87/100. itsmefaith (2222)  4 years ago

Oh, thanks for the tips. happy I really want to try this, so I hope I don't forget. I probably won't go as far as onions and mushrooms but I'm really going to try the steak. What about a burger. Would that work?


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

Yes, it will work.

Look it up online. There used to be a book about it. I can't remember what it's called.


myLot reputation of 87/100. itsmefaith (2222)  4 years ago

Like a cookbook for all the stuff you can cook in your car???? Hee

When I cook and that is not often, I cook with electric.. Or the Microwave, I do like the Microwave, although nothing cooked in it tasets that good, it is awful but fast.. My mother-in-law always used gas and I liked using gas to cook, but all that we have is electric..


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

I prefer cooking with gas as well, DonnaLawson. But we use what is available, don't we?

Yes, I have an induction cooktop, a NuWave countertop infrared/convection oven, a multicooker (pressure cooker with steam and braise options), and a microwave oven. Those all produce different forms of heat. Once we were dining at the house of some acquaintances, though, and they "cooked" some fish without heat, I think, by putting lemon juice and other things in a sauce that they said cooked the fish. They called the dish ceviche. Their cat liked it a lot, though, and as s/he jumped up on the counter and was sniffing if before it was served, hubby and I were a bit reluctant to try any. It was probably delicious, but we couldn't get past the feline issue.


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

Hmm, I imagine had I been there, drannhh, I would have been grateful that the cat rescued me from trying the fish.
