Do you have to cook a turkey right after brining?

No, you don't have to cook a turkey, or any meat, right after brining. You'd want to remove the turkey from the salt solution, and pat the skin dry, and then put it in a container or some sort of packaging. (You don't want to leave it indefinitely in the brining solution.) You can also freeze turkey, pork chops, chicken parts, etc. after brining and not cook them for weeks or months.

How do you reduce brandy on the stove?

You have to be careful about doing this, you must keep the temperature of the pan below the flash point of the brandy (sorry, I don't know what this temperature is). Basically, you want to keep the temperature low enough that the alcohol or fumes in the brandy won't ignite. So keep the burner low, stir constantly, don't walk away, don't take your eyes off the pan, and adjust the temperature downward as necessary.

You can cover beef stew while it simmers, but you don't have to. If you don't cover it, you should check it often to avoid steaming out all the liquid and having the stew to scorch. If you have a lid on, the liquid won't disappear as fast, and also the stew may be done a little sooner.

How do you make a cone piece to fit in a hose out of a can?

Making a simple cone for a bong? fair enough.

step 1: get a, ie. coca cola can or something with very thin sheet of metal.

step 2: cut a circle about the same as a condom or more ( you can always adjust later with scissors, this also leaves room for step 5).

step 3: cut directly straight into the middle of the sheet and stop in the very middle.

step 4: now curl the cut mettle up into a cone and fit into the hose JUST to get the sizing right, you should leave about 3 or 4 mm poking out of the hose for the next instruction.

step 5: now with the right size in shape, cut with scissors around the top of the cone vertically, small bits that can be bent down ( about 2 mm between each cut, and making each cut down at least enough to bend out over the hose mouth ), this is to stop the cone from falling down the pipe (hose).

step 6: with a needle or other small pointed object, carefully poke small tiny holes in your cone to let air through down into the pipe, make sure you don't push to hard and make a huge hole otherwise you will have to start again because all your ganja is gonna be sucked into the pipe to the water, destroying the purpose of the cone and making all your stuff wet and un-smokable.

step 7: get baked.

Does salt shrink your meat when you cook it?

Meats lose liquid as they cook, and will shrink to some extent whether salt is added or not. Using a lot of salt, especially when boiling or braising, can draw too much juice from meat and so dry it out too much. But a sprinkling of salt on the surface of burgers or steaks won't cause more shrinking.

How can you prevent prawns becoming chewy I'd like them to be quite fleshy but whenever I cook them they are really chewy even though I barely cook them?

Defrost frozen prawns to make them ready for cooking. There are two proper ways to do this. One method requires that you remove prawns from their pack and place them in a bowl. The bowl should be covered and placed in the refrigerator all night to defrost. The second method involves wrapping prawns in a tight waterproof packing such as cling film. The package should be placed in a sink or container of cold water. Using this method, you could defrost a pound of frozen prawns in an hour. Step 2 Boil water. Put a clean pot on the burner and put enough water to cover the amount of prawns you will add. Two tablespoons of salt should be added to the water as you bring it to a boil. Step 3 Shelling (optional). Twist the prawn head and pull off. Pull off the legs and lift the shell back while holding onto the prawn tail. Scissors can be used to shell the prawns. Cut through the middle of the shell, peel off the shell from both sides and remove the head. Step 4 Cooking prawns. Put the washed prawns into the pot of boiling water. Reduce the heat and allow them to simmer for 3-6 minutes. When the prawns turn opaque or translucent and float on the boiling water they are cooked. You can cut a prawn in half to check. Step 5 Cool off the prawns. Remove the cooked prawns from heat and allow them to run under cold water to stop the cooking process. Some people may choose to serve and eat prawns as soon as they cool off. Step 6 Serve cooked prawns by themselves or with another dish. Many add prawns to other dishes, while some use prawns to garnish meals.
