What is a good all around knife I can use for just about anything cooking related. Preferably one that isn't super expensive, does that exist?
Currently using some 8 years old walmart knives and its getting pretty difficult to do anything.
A nice cleaver? Doesn't have to be massive, just enough to hold and chop....and swoop. And bang about. Cleavers are awesome...
If you have a moderate budget, victornix is your best bet

can confirm. i use a victorinox chef knife. good all around chef knife that's not gonna run you $500+. i also own a mercer, but the handle on that is kinda rubbery. its a matter of preference, both of them are good and around the same price range

You've never had a poor man's meal unless you've eaten rice on its own out of a mug with salt seasoning.
>>8707371
Eggbread with yogurt, since yogurt is as cheap as water on the Balkans.

How do I make a grilled cheese taste better?
more butter
>>8705831
Use better bread
Use good quality butter (or mayo)
Use better cheese
Add additional ingredients (though I'm sure some sperg will bitch that that's now a "melt" rather than a "grilled cheese").
>>8705831
Make a sandwich but cook it the same way instead
Are you allergic to any foods, anon?
What happens if you partake in said foods?
>>8704515
Arugula/Rocket
Itchy moth and throat as well as persistent taste for the day.
Almonds get me flushed and slightly itchy.
In allergy season I also react to Tomatoes/Kiwis/Strawberries/Nuts with a slight itch.
No serious allergy though, glad i didn't get all of my dad's nut allergy, he starts coughing and tearing up.
Nope, feels good man
>>8704515
Allergic to gluten
It gives my tum tum a little ache so I make sure to always demand gluten free, even if the place isn't equipped to do so.
ITT: post your go to go to "cool guy" drink at the bar.

What's the spiciest thing you've ever eaten /ck/
https://twitter.com/pinksveIvet/status/774851497377038336
REALLY..REALLY...H O T!
Me and my friend made huevos rancheros with super-spicy chorizo, a whole can of chipotles and a bunch of fresh hot peppers. It wasn't so bad once it cooled down but it was making me sweat under my fat man-tits when it was hot
Sriracha straight from the bottle, wew boy was that crazy. But I got that fiver from Carl, so it was well worth it.
I hope you all periodically microwave your sponges for 2 minutes (after wetting obviously) to kill any microorganisms. Remember, a clean sponge is a happy sponge.
>>8702877
I will shit on your mother's freshly violated corpse if you ever try to tell me what to do again, kid.
>>8702877
DON'T DO THIS THIS IS HOW YOU MAKE MUSTARD GAS

I like his videos because the recipes are pretty simple. And he has a soothing voice.
cooks way too much unhealthy shit but his recipes are always solid at least
Alcohol thread
What ya'll on tonight?
>>8701809
last week I finally got properly drunk-- stumbling all over, everything was funny, speech was different; I've had a bit of it before but not like that
the next morning I felt totally fine, as with every previous time
who /neverhungover/?
My alcoholism has taken a strange turn for the worst and I feel almost guilty sharing this with some of you who suffer from the same affliction.
But here it goes
A typical night (or day) of drinking for me has always been gradual. Start with a few beers or few shots and then over a period of a few hours I'll start piling up the servings of booze until I am blacked out at which point I just go to bed
but I discovered that consuming a large amount of alcohol at once gives an insane rush (almost opiate like euphoria). so I get some meme energy drink and mix it with a glass full of 6-7 shots and then just drink that in one gulp.
feels crazy
I've been puking all day. I know that the only way to stop this is to stop drinking, but I am not doing that until the beer (Alexander Keiths) in the fridge is gone.
so i decided to visit murica. tell me what kind of food is a 'must eat' here
>>8709591
Depends, since there's so much regional stuff, tell us where you're going and we can give you a better list.
America is like Europe, our states are like European countries, the ones close to each other can be similar, though still have their differences, but the ones halfway across the country are fairly significantly different. If you have the opportunity there are many cuisines spread throughout the nation that are worth a try. If you are only going to a few specific locations, tell us where and we can give you a better idea of the cuisine you might find locally that would be worth investigating.
>>8709591
Beef.
If you're in America, all jokes aside, get a really good bugger that isn't from a fast food chain.
can i make bread with this? ran out of yeast and i want to eat something.
searched the internet but didnt find any clear answer.
guys?
>>8707995
Probably going to have to go with an Irish soda bread or american biscuit. Sorry for your loss.
>>8708046
will try the american biscuit. i mean, it has tasty ingredients, cant be that bad can it?
Ignoring the tits for a moment, how would you make this giant rainbow cocktail, /ck/?

What's the most exotic meat you've tried, /ck/? I don't eat meat anymore but I'm from Florida and the weirdest meat I've eaten is alligator. Not that weird I know.
Mako
Very tasty
minke whale
kangaroo
puffin
>>8699621
I remember hearing puffin tastes like shit. Is that true?
What does /ck/ think of Cracker Barrel? I only ever stop here when on very long road trips, because it keeps me full longer than anything else and- to me- doesn't taste too bad.
>>8712387
>I only ever stop here when on very long road trips
I feel like that's the only time anyone goes to nigger library
last time I went was on my way down to florida in 07, got country fried steak and apple cider
I always looked forward to it as a kid though
>>8712437
It's also a pretty significant sunday lunch destination for the boomers in the bible belt. I love their lemon pepper trout.
>>8712387
