Baked vs cooked

[edit]

I'm a little confused by the process described for making baked milk. The first few sentences of this entry say it is made by boiling. Is 'baked milk' in that sense a misnomer, or in any case a linguistic artifact of an older mode of preparation (described in the article as 'rural')? If so, perhaps the text could be clarified to reflect that (e.g., 'was traditionally made by … but is now normally made by …'). MJM74 (talk) 01:10, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's made not by boiling only. Milk is getting boiled, but then slowly support hot temperature for long time to get the "baked" milk. "Baked" is more descriptive, it's like baked bread but milk instead of dough as for bread. Numbered (talk) 18:36, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

At picture is not ryazhenka!! It's just milk!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.162.89.109 (talk) 12:58, 5 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It is ryazhenka. Here is one of the original pictures, with details properly visible, but wrong white balance: File:Ryazhenka-avrs01-20.jpg. --AVRS (talk) 19:37, 5 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Contradictory claims of invention

[edit]

According to three Category: links the article uses, "baked milk" is:

  • a Russian invention
  • a Ukrainian invention
  • a Belorussian invention

Since these three countries are geographically distinct, it is absurd to claim it as an invention of each of them, unless it was invented by a team containing at least one member of each nationality. However, the truth is more likely that it was invented by a person or persons unknown, and has since become a traditional recipe of all three nations. When did Wikipedia start claiming as national inventions items of traditional or customary use?!

The best resolution of this logical absurdity would be to find better categories to place it in e.g. "traditional foods of Slavic peoples" if such a thing exists. Nevertheless, the existing Category: links should be removed. Before doing so myself, I invite any Wikipedian with better knowledge of Slavic culture to make some appropriate changes. yoyo (talk) 14:36, 18 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Heating unopened can

[edit]

Isn't it potentially explosive to heat an unopened can of anything? 2600:1700:4CA1:3C80:DCE:8022:73C4:DA80 (talk) 18:51, 18 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
