Stuffing a Turkey: Is It Safe?

By Danica A • November 1, 2021
Turkey has been a staple at Thanksgiving dinner tables for generations. Oftentimes, you’ll find it accompanied by stuffing. The traditional way to prepare stuffing is to cook it inside the turkey. However, chefs and other professionals have since become wary of this method due to health concerns. Before you start preparing for your Thanksgiving feast, it is important to understand what stuffing is, why stuffing a turkey is unsafe, and how to properly prepare your stuffing. What Is Stuffing? Stuffing is a side dish that typically consists of dried bread, such as cornbread, croutons, or breadcrumbs, mixed with meat, onions, celery, and sage. The mixture is then inserted into meat or vegetables and roasted. There are many different varieties of this holiday side dish if you're wondering what to stuff a turkey with. Stuffing is an extremely versatile food that works well with various flavors. While it's most commonly paired with turkey, it can also be included with chicken, pork, mushrooms, and bell peppers, among other foods. Stuffing vs Dressing  The difference between stuffing and dressing depends on how it’s prepared and regional traditions. Dressing is a name for stuffing that is cooked separately from poultry, meat, or vegetables and served alongside it, rather than inside it. In the American South, many people use the term “dressing” to refer to both stuffing and dressing, but in most states, people refer to both as stuffing.

What Is a Continental Breakfast?

By Danica A • September 1, 2021
Hotel guests have come to seek out and even expect food options during their stay, whether it be from an on-site restaurant, room service , or a complimentary continental breakfast. If you’re looking to open your own hotel, you may be wondering what is included in a continental breakfast and how hoteliers can offer it for free. We explored the origin of this breakfast style, continental menu options, along with some other breakfast selections you may be interested in using for your hospitality business". Continental Breakfast Definition A continental breakfast is a light morning meal typically consisting of pastries and baked goods, fruits, toast, and coffee. It is usually served buffet-style and modeled after the European breakfast, similar to what one would enjoy in France or the Mediterranean. Continental breakfasts emphasize simplicity and focus on foods that can easily be stocked. Continental Breakfast Menu Here are some of the options that a continental breakfast consists of: Baked Goods / Pastries Fruits Bread Jams and Spreads Coffee Tea Hot Chocolate Juice Optional: Breakfast cereals, eggs, meats, sliced cheese, porridge or oatmeal Why Is It Called a Continental Breakfast? The term “continental breakfast” refers to the continent of Europe and the style of breakfast enjoyed in European cultures. The term first appeared in 1896 as a result of the turning of the century. Prior to the 1800s, the most common American jobs involved farm work and demanded a high-calorie breakfast to start the day. However, as the country headed into the 1900s, the average job became more sedentary and emerging middle-class workers sought out a lighter morning option. At the same time, more and more European travelers were visiting America and staying in hotels. The hotels responded in kind by adding a light breakfast option to their menu that their European customers would appreciate.

What is Induction Cooking?

By Danica A • August 1, 2021
Whether you’re building a brand new restaurant or looking to remodel, it’s important to consider your options when it comes to what type of cooking equipment will be best for your business. Induction cooking has grown in popularity over the years, but the way it works and the benefits of using it are still a mystery to many. Keep reading to learn what induction cooking is and why it’s a popular choice amongst many restaurateurs. What Is an Induction Cooktop? An induction cooktop is a cooking surface that heats by transferring currents from an electromagnetic field located below the glass surface directly to the magnetic induction cookware placed above. Unlike thermal conduction, it heats this cookware directly without the need for a flame or burner. Because there is no heating of a separate element, an induction cooktop can heat cookware faster than any other medium. How Does Induction Cooking Work? While gas and electric stoves heat cookware indirectly by first heating a coil, burner, or producing a flame, induction cooking provides direct heat to the cookware which then passes the radiant energy on to the food. Instead of a heating element, magnets are used to stimulate the atoms inside your cookware and heat the pot or pan.

Knowing what your customer base is looking for can play an important part in your establishment’s success. If you're thinking about starting a restaurant, selecting the right path is crucial. We're here to compare the differences and key details of both casual and fine dining to help you determine the identity of your future restaurant! What Is the Difference Between Fine Dining and Casual Dining? The difference between fine dining and casual dining has to do with their ambiance and prices. Fine dining or formal dining restaurants offer an upscale setting and service while featuring unique and often more expensive menu options, with checks averaging over $50. A casual dining establishment provides a more laid-back atmosphere with more moderately-priced meal selections. It’s important to define what style of establishment you will be opening before you get started.
