~Meat that near the bone always the sweetest~


Why do people say that the meat nearest with the bone id always the sweetest?

This is because of the fundamental tastes that have been identified in human, sweetness is the one that seems to give us the most pleasure. Nevertheless, the meat nearest the bone really is testier for several reason:

1)because it`s buried down inside the meat, the bone and it`s surroundings don`t get as hot and cook as fast as the outer parts do. When the T-bone steak being grill, the meat near the bone end up rare than the rest, and the rare the meat, the juicier and flavorful it is.

2)The collagen protein in these tissues breaks down when heated and turns into gelatin, a much softer protein. The gelatin has the further property of being able to hold huge amount of water, up to 10 times its own bulk. So, in general, wherever theres is the most collagen and that`s usually next to the bone-the meat will be both more tender and juicier.

3)A meat near the bone effect is more obvious. In certain cuts, notably in ribs and chops, there is a lot of fat neat the the bone. And much to our regret to our arteries, highly saturated animal fat is delicious.
