In her latest post, Brooklyn defended her cooking technique by sharing a sentence from an article stating, “More research was done and we found information that adding wine corks to the cooking liquid ensured a more tender dish.”
However the Naples Daily News The article adds that most chefs use the niche method for octopus dishes, while noting that experts have argued over the technique.
He added: “Experts have argued about this method, but most chefs and those who regularly prepare squid and octopus swear that there are enzymes in the corks that ensure a tastier dish.”
Other article Debunking Food Myths discusses the claim that putting a wine cork in the cooking water for octopus can prevent it from toughening.
Tim Hilchenbach, executive chef at LSG Sky Chefs, stated that there was no evidence to back it up, adding: “There is no scientific explanation that the trick works.” If you want tender octopus, you need to use the correct cooking technique.’
Although there is much debate as to whether the cork method works successfully, it is a niche technique that is sometimes used for octopus and squid, not other sauces.
It comes after Brooklyn shared a snap of himself playing “daddy daycare” with his new rescue pup, Peanut, while trying to cook some spaghetti bolognese.
As Brooklyn treated herself to a glass of fine red wine after sprinkling it with the ground beef and carrots, her followers were puzzled as to why there was a wooden cork in the pot.
One of a kind: He filmed himself trying to cook a spaghetti bolognese, but fans criticized him when they saw a wine cork sitting in his boiling sauce.
Oh darling! Brooklyn then took to her Instagram Stories to respond to the criticism, but experts have claimed that the niche method is used for the octopus, rather than the Bolognese sauce.
Additionally, others criticized Brooklyn for holding the tiny dog in a baby papoose for fears of fire safety.

Another added: ‘The cork is the secret ingredient,’ while a third follower chimed in: ‘Why did you throw the wine cork in the pot?’
Another follower warned: ‘That’s not cute, even if your pup is. . You shouldn’t have the dog with you when you are cooking. Boiling liquid could splash into your face and injure you.
When asked by a fan, ‘Are you a chef?’ Brooklyn replied, ‘No, but food is my passion.’
Peanut is the latest addition to the growing breed of dogs from Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz. Nicola, 28, started a dog shelter in Los Angeles called It’s Yogi House.
Brooklyn has shared her passion for cooking on her social media platform, but often receives good feedback from critics.
In his latest cooking video, Brooklyn was called out by fans while cooking fettuccine alfredo while promoting a milk brand.
Many were quick to point out that he had used spaghetti instead of the more traditional fettuccine pasta and made a béchamel sauce instead of an alfredo.
The bechamel sauce is a simple recipe, made from flour, milk and butter. Alfredo sauce is much richer and is made with heavy cream, butter, garlic, fresh parsley, and Parmesan.
Others highlighted that he didn’t even spice up the dish, as one joked in the comments that “inflation is hitting everyone” as he left out key ingredients.

Brooklyn has previously been criticized by her followers for using expensive ingredients and staple recipes while cooking for Instagram viewers.

Last month, Brooklyn also spent hundreds of pounds on its controversial Michelin-style Sunday roast.
The butchers told MailOnline the meat appeared to be a 5kg cut of sirloin dry-aged for 28 days that would be worth between £200 and £300 at a meat market.
Brooklyn also used copious amounts of butter, which currently commands a sky-high price due to global milk shortages.
Surprised fans were quick to comment on the cost of the meal, with one commenting: “What hurts me the most is that it probably costs more than most British families can afford to spend on food in a week.” [sic]’
Others added: ‘Heart attack on a plate. totally unnecessary amount of it. Most people’s budgets do not include any type of “aged” meat. In fact, those black gloves put me off anyway. So unattractive!’;
‘I couldn’t afford the amount of butter used! I’d rather pay a tenna per roast than £80 in butter’; “I wonder the cost because the price of the butter was around £430.”
However, Brooklyn also recently showed its fans a cheaper option, having recreated the famous ‘Scouse soup’, which can cost just £2 a slice.
However, fans took advantage of the comments to criticize the recipe, saying that he should have made the soup from scratch and added more vegetables, instead of using a carton of supermarket broth.
He wrote the caption, “Scouse soup x one of my favorite dishes,” for the clip, which was dubbed into Marvin Gaye’s How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You).
