YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIf you saw Hank Green's video about the exploding churro, his diagnosis is correct. Also, the thing that happened to that churro has a name! Case hardening!
Case hardening is a whole thing in food science. It can make churros explode, and it's also why cheese & cured meats have to cure slowly for a long time. But for something that's such a big deal in food handling, it's weirdly hard to find info on. So we're gonna talk about it.
Also hopefully nobody in that video got hurt. I mean a steam explosion to the mouth, yikes. : /
