To make candy canes, you will need sugar, corn syrup, water, cream of tartar, peppermint or other flavor extract, and red food coloring. First, combine sugar, corn syrup, and water in a saucepan and cook over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Add cream of tartar and continue to cook until the mixture reaches 300°F. Remove from heat and stir in flavor extract and food coloring. Pour the mixture onto a greased surface and allow it to cool slightly. When it is cool enough to handle, pull and twist the candy to create the signature candy cane shape, and let it fully cool and harden before storing or serving.

No, it is not safe to eat raw chicken that has been left out for 4 hours or more. Raw chicken can contain harmful bacteria like Salmonella, which can cause foodborne illness if ingested. The rule of thumb is to always refrigerate or freeze raw chicken immediately after purchasing or defrosting and to cook it thoroughly to an internal temperature of 165°F to kill any harmful bacteria.

Grilling bone-in chicken usually takes about 20-30 minutes. However, the time may vary depending on the thickness of the chicken, type of grill, and temperature of the grill.

However, if their tips do not bring them up to the state’s minimum wage of $8.56 per hour, the employer is required to make up the difference. Additionally, some employers may pay their waitstaff above the minimum wage.

If you don’t have corn husks for tamales, you can use parchment paper or banana leaves as a substitute. Parchment paper should be cut into squares and soaked in warm water for a few minutes to soften before wrapping the tamale dough. Banana leaves should be cut into rectangles and blanched by boiling them for a few minutes to make them soft and pliable before using them to wrap the tamale dough. Both substitutes will not only provide a similar appearance but also add a unique flavor to the tamales.

If your lasagna is fully cooked but just needs reheating, you should cover the lasagna with foil and bake it in a preheated oven at 350°F for approximately 30 minutes. If the lasagna is still cold and frozen, it will take longer, around 1 hour or more, depending on the size and depth of the dish. Always make sure to check the internal temperature of the lasagna, which should reach 165°F.
