Food myths: Which ones make you crazy?
"This is actually true. The act of salting meat by sprinkling salt on raw meat, then storing it, will leach out all the moisture as evidenced by the pool of blood on the bottom of the container"
Uh, Judy Rodgers of Zune Cafe would probably beg to differ-and having had incredible meals at Zune Cafe, I'm a convert of pre-salting meat.

Wow, all the hostility. Should we bring in Steingarten's The Man Who Ate Everything too? He mentions blanching (didn't think it was necessary for American potatoes, just european ones) the two frying step, etc.. Accusing someone like this blog writer of plagiarism is a pretty serious charge-especially given his past accomplishments and (from what I've seen) perfect willingness to give credit to others in his adventures.
