    It's the texture and freshness of the curd that are the important properties

    The curds are thick enough not to fully melt so you get a fun texture variation with the fries and gravy that makes it feel more decadent; thinner cheeses will not have the same texture or flavour

    And the curds should squeak against your teeth when you bite into them or they're not fresh/likely older than a day

    Is the ranch flavor added during the curding process, or is that more of a last-minute thing? Trying to get it right around here.

    If you're gonna get weird with it always put the non-standard toppings on top

    Isn't 1g/ml the density of water at atmospheric pressure? That's what makes baking with a scale way easier. Because one ml of water will weigh one gram.

    I don't know if it changes based on elevation/temperature - I'd guess it does but conventionally 1g of water is 1 ml of water is 1cm^3 of water

    Water density doesn't change much if at all with pressure (as others have noted). It does vary a noticeable amount with temperature though. Water expands as it gets hotter, therefore having a lower density.

    An example of this from my work: When they start up the fission reactors, the coolant heats up and expands. A bunch of "swell" water has to be pumped to storage tanks. Likewise, when they shut the reactors down, the coolant cools and experiences "shrink", and inventory from the storage tanks must be pumped into the main coolant system.

    Look, I didn't make the ranch curds. I just saw them and bought them and used them to make nightmare poutine, because it was funny.

    Is there no gravy on that poutine?!

  • JedocJedoc In the scuppers with the staggers and jagsRegistered User regular
    No. It was a multimedia ratfuck cuisine experience with overlapping anger points. The sauce was reserved for pissing off barbecue people by making it mustard-based.

    That is a Turducken Poutine Pizza.

    A pizza base, topped with chicken, turkey, duck, caramelized onions, fries, poutine cheese curds, gravy and some green stuff.

    I genuinely don't think I can adequately express how delicious this was.

    When Timmy's got bought out by some Americans, they decided to go with a cheaper supplier with worse product. I believe Canadian McDonald's now serves OG Timmy's coffee. Like pretty much everything wrong in Canada, it's the US's fault.

    My understanding is that higher temperature = faster brewing or something?

    To be the slightest bit fair to the american overlords, the americans bought Tims in the early 90s, then Tims became its own public company in the late aughts, then it was bought by an american company owned by a brazilian company and that's been the status quo for the last decade

    The idea with fast food coffee is that they keep it at a higher temperature, so that when you finish commuting to work it's cooled to roughly drinking temp.

    This idea was at the root of the infamous lawsuit against McDonalds.

    McDonalds managed to pull off some incredible gaslighting about that lawsuit's result. Almost everybody I talk to about it doesn't realize what the case was actually about, they just "know" the summary of a woman spilled hot coffee and sued. Though it is "fun" in a sick way to inform them of the specifics and watch their eyes go very round as I describe what third-degree burns do to human flesh. Also how the woman only sued for enough to cover medical expenses and how it was the jury that sought to punish McDonalds after hearing the facts.

    This is all correct, and while I didn't mean to, my abbreviated summary implies that the suit was frivolous, and the damage done to the person minimal. Neither is true.

    I did! Did not hear squeaking, but it was also my first poutine so maybe I did not know what to listen for.

  • PsykomaPsykoma Registered User regular
    I don't think you hear the squeaking unless the cheese is at or near room temp.
    If it's melted it'll just be texturewise like any other melted cheese imo, so it depends on how quickly you ate it!

    I got the same. My first reaction was wondering "Why is a restaurant chain trying to become a financial institution?" The second was unsubscribing from their mailing list.

    As for your question, do you like Tim Hortons food? The TH card allows you to earn Tims Points by using it to make purchases.

    Went out for a birthday meal the other day to a place that does a variety of smashed burgers and prides itself on decent chips. Every burger comes with a portion of chips but when there's poutine available as an extra there's no chance I'm not getting that. It could be good! What if it beats the odds and in the middle of the North of England they manage to pull it off and get the chips, cheese curds and gravy right?

    j9xw1ldvlr5j.jpg

    They didn't.

    That's halloumi. Famously non-melty halloumi.

    Sigh.
