If a straw inserted in the middle comes out clean, it is done.
If the juices run clear, it is done.
If the beak is still flexible, it is a young bird.
Stick a knife or fork into it for a few seconds; take it out and
press it against your upper lip; if it feels good and hot, but
doesn't burn you, it is done.
Throw [a piece of] it at the wall, and if it sticks, it is done.
(Guess what this genyoowine Helpful Hint is for...)
Shake the pan to see if it has gelled.
Heat the oil in the wok. Stick your finger in. If you hear a scream,
it is hot enough.
If dots of red juice appear on the upper surface, it is done.
Place a drop on a plate, and if it beads up and solidifies, it is done.
Place a drop in cold water; if it hangs together it is done.
If it breaks apart into flakes near the backbone, it is done.
Loke that yt be stondyng.
Adamantius
