TikTok user Emily Harper, 25, Canadian, has gone viral after sparking a debate over washing meat with water to remove fat
Disgusted by the fat she cooked (pictured left), the woman spilled it down the drain (right) and proceeded to wash the meat with water.
Subtitling the message “Another tip for cooking,” Emily begins the viral video using a spatula to separate a bag of ground beef.
He decides to empty the excess fat into the sink, after being disgusted with the amount of bubbles being cooked.
Placing the meat in a colander, wash it with water and place it back in the pan to prove the difference.
Surprised by the hack, many respondents struggled to see the pros and argued that the method reduces flavor, blocks itching and infects bacteria.
One person wrote, “Seriously said” look at the difference! “as if I hadn’t finished every last drop of taste”
I started when the fat drained down the sink to freeze and clog the pipes. Rinse the meat under the tap was a tasteless cherry on the sawdust cake, ”said another.
A series of responses to the hack argued that it would eliminate the taste of the meat and warned that pouring fat into the sink blocks the drain.
A third added: “That must be the softest, driest beef in the whole world. As if strange sawdust crumbling.
However, others said they have been using the method for years and claimed the meat still tastes good.
“When it comes to healthy cooking, the only problem I have is that it dumps grease down the sink drain. This is a great way to make a drain down the line. If you don’t want to cook with grease, drain it in an empty container and throw it in the trash. It will save you plumbing, ”wrote one.
Another said, ‘I don’t understand? My family has done it forever, at least when it comes to making tacos, pouring the fat, rinsing with water, adding it back to the pan with a little water and seasoning, mixing and simmering. slow and evaporate water ‘
Other respondents argued that they have always drained the fat from their meat and agree that it makes the dish healthier.
