Stop Washing Chicken

[@evrdraws1126]

West Indian here. In the Caribbean we wash our meats in a bowl of water with either citrus like lemons/limes or vinegar. Less about germs and more about getting rid of that funky animal smell. Changes the entirety of the taste of the dish. If you KNOW, you know. Just be sure to clean up properly after.

[@alwayzpow3396]

[@cody0126a]

And all the natural flavor goes down the drain. That’s why the Caribbeans have to season the help out of everything they cook because they done washed all the natural flavor away.

We do this as well. Wash it with water or a quick rub with lemon/citrus until no longer slimey - real game changer specially for people who are very sensitive to the gameyness of meats (they exist).

Nope. Not planning to give it up. Many times I find some kind of who knows what in the package with the meat. As soon as my meat in the pot, I disinfect everything. Rags, sponges too. To dry it, I use paper towels of course.

I’m still washing my chicken. You don’t know how it was handled before being packaged. Often there are unwanted things like feathers, veins, extra skin, fat, tendons etc you don’t want in your finished dish. There is also a very noticeable difference in taste with unwashed chicken. I make sure to clean my sink with bleach after I’m done and I’ve never gotten sick from washing chicken.

[@user-pe3wg9vj4s]

You forgot about the clothes you are wearing, so you strip down and get changed every time you cook chicken?
Washing chicken makes zero sense logically. All you are doing is trying to wash the outside of the chicken, the inside is still exactly the same as the outside (i.e. has bacteria, salmonella etc.), you aren't washing that so what are you actually doing? Cooking is the only way to "wash" the chicken.
If you want to remove the smell of the meat then you can brine/marinade it.
Washing is doing nothing but spreading germs unnecessarily.

[@trurahaiku]

He really jinxed me. I still wash my chicken 2-3 times and last with vinegar.

[@GabrielGarcia-300]

All cooks know, as long as you get it up to temp, it kills the bacteria. Washing it with water does nothing. Just cook to temp 🥴🤦

Or just cook the chicken. Washing it will only "clean" the surface anyway and you still need to cook the chicken to the exact degree that the rest of us do just to make it safe it eat. Why do the extra work and create the potential of contaminating your work surfaces?
