I do rinse my meat (mainly chicken and fish) my grandad was a health inspector so he always told us to place the meat in a bowl with lemon juice and water and a little bit if salt levels for a couple minutes and then drain it out. Just helps to get rid of blood and extra bacteria that can not be removed during cooking. It also tenderizes the meat and allows flavors to penetrate better 😊❤ love your videos by the way

I used to wash my meat because of the sliminess but after reading some information advising on otherwise, I’m not doing it anymore now I just add lime juice to decrease viscosity. Washing meat is not advisable since splashing water increases the chances of bacteria spreading throughout the counter and other foods.

I swear, people just have to criticize! WTF? It's your house, your food and your family, what business is it of anyone's to tell you how you should be doing things? No, I do not save my strawberry tops for anything other than to give to my chickens. They love them!!! I wash seafood and chicken only if it's yucky when I take it out of the package. All of those salads look so stinking good! I'm from Indiana and grew up eating ham salad. My meemaw used to put a bit of cream cheese and a bit of Velveeta in it. My mamaw made hers a bit sweeter. Loved them both and it brings back great memories of sitting at their table eating ham salad and white bread sandwiches! I love seeing the little cameos of your family!

I also find it strange that in today’s world moms feel they have to explain or reason why the homemake backed goods. It is so hard to find food prep videos to watch that are well balanced and I so enjoy watching yours 💜 we either feed the strawberry ends to our small pets or compost them.

I personally don't cut off strawberry tops most of the time since my kids are pretty good about eating them down to the stem, but whenever there is extra strawberry "meat" left to them I give them to our dogs as a treat. I try to give all produce scraps (that are dog safe) to our dogs just to throw a little mix into their day and also to avoid wasting because I HATE putting food in the trash - even scraps. Flavoring water would be a good idea if you like flavored water and have one of those infuser attachments. Smoothies kind of weirds me out too for some reason

Oh goodness, I have so much to say. I loved this meal prep. Ham salad. Lived in Chicago area and went to college in Central Illinois and never have I ever....but! My dad died last year. He was a chef at one point, and was a Jewish man born and raised in Brooklyn. I wasn't there for it, but apparently as the end was near, he was yelling at someone that he was making the ham salad all wrong. 🤷🏻♀️ It cracks me up because if I never ate ham salad, I'm not sure where he did or how he would know it was made incorrectly. (Can you mess it up?) I would love 2 different meal prep videos: 1. Leftover makeover 2. No groceries (for the meals you're making) - meal prep with what you have in the fridge/freezer or pantry.

I think I agree with everyone else, your meal prep videos are my favorite. I do not rinse my meat, any of them. I have just done research and found out that it doesn’t do anything that cooking doesn’t do. But it can cause other things with the bacteria around the kitchen. Also with the knife, you don’t have to have a super expensive knife. Just get a good one and take care of it. If you cut citrus always wash your knife right after you cut the citrus so that acid doesn’t pit the metal. My dad used to do the same thing with the meat grinder, but he would use chunks of bologna and then celery, mayonnaise, onion.

Yes, I am a chicken rinser. LOL Whether it's boneless or chicken parts, I always rinse it & pat it dry. I don't like how poultry or meat sits in a tray on those absorbent pads that hold the blood/juices while it touches the meat. Just something that bothers me. So for me, as I wrap meat or chicken for the freezer, it's easy to rinse it off, place on a paper towel, pat it dry & wrap. And I am a ham salad fan. It's not a usual thing here on the East Coast, but years ago my local deli made it & I was a fan ever since. Most I talk to here never heard of it or ate it. It's like Taylor Ham is here in NJ -it's a meat we can't live without, but most of the country has no idea what it is. A Taylor Ham, egg & cheese on a heard roll is the breakfast choice for anyone in NJ. Thanks Jen.
