Last week we had a chance to finally test the different kinds of protein to make our side of meat!
We roasted and boiled both beef and cod to try and see which technique would taste better. We attempted to make a fire in order to roast our meats but the weather very literally dampened our chances at making a successful fire in order to get the proper coals. So we had to bring it the experiment indoors to the modern technology of an oven! With both types of protein and both techniques we used cloves, cumin and cinnamon to flavour our meats.
And the results are in:
With the cod, roasting was definitely the better option! Lindsay reported that the boiled fish was slimey and couldn't even finish chewing it before she had to spit it out! The roasted fish had a much more palatable texture and tasted more like actual fish.
I had the pleasure of being the first to taste the beef!
Both types (boiling and roasting) did not change the texture or taste drastically with the beef. It was flavourful and though a little dry for personal preference, the beef we made would not be a bad option for a nice meal!
And here is a non-edited video of our taste testing experiment (excuse the giggles)!:
