exactly this, thoughts on vinegar?

I've never had oysters, that looks rly good.

Fellow chef here. I work at Wendy's, make 8.75 an hour. How bout you, OP?

>>729796355
When you can add flour and it rises like a dough.

A chef is someone who cooks... in Wendy's they don't cook, they just produce... having to explain this, is a joke on itself.

Are they in their shell on ice or in a plastic container? Do you live near an ocean?

>>729796044
1. How do I get smooth buttery scrambled eggs?
2. How do I cook a steak a good medium rare

>>729797282
Not at all!!! It's a big named restaurant but doesn't seat huge crowds

>>729797414
What's in your fridge?

>>729797495
If I don't cook, then why is the food hot? Why isn't it just a slab of raw meat on a bun with a box of raw potato strips on the side? My name tag even says "chef" on it.

>>729797702
I live about an hour from the ocean.
Yes they are in their shell.
What worries me is that the buffet is $14 usd/person. And with the owner being korean he might just recycle the shells & plop some container ones on there.
Also what i mean by fresh is that they are not past their prime and eating them wont give me the anal squirts.

>>729797770
break the eggs into the pot
knob of butter in
turn heat to medium high
do not stop stirring
you have to touch the steak as you cook it
make sure it is at room temp b4 cooking
bbq or hot pan
only turn once
if on the grill don't turn over but turn 180 deg 1 1/2 min
now flip and do the same
you have to touch the middle
take your thumb and index touch
now feel how tight the muscle is at the base of your thumb
that is med rare
good luck

Where is the lamb sauce

>>729798012

The difference is, anyone can cook your shit at Wendy's. Every housewife, Ex-Prisoners, Teenager Wankers, Mongoloids, anyone...

Don't even try to argue you are on the same level as a real chef in a proper restaurant. Your nametag says "chef", huh? My jeans say Levi Strauss... oh geez, does that make me Levi now? Fuck no... same with your name tag. You are a boss of several unqualified walking deep fryers, nothing else.

>>729798687
You're just mad because I'm running a kitchen and you're not.

>>729798498
it's always wise to act on your gut feelings...
Go for a drive to the ocean on a nice Sunday and buy fresh from a fishmonger

I have no motivation to cook or make myself a decent, sizable healthy meal, because A. It takes so much time and B. I suck at it. Do you have any advice for someone who hates fucking cooking but needs/wants to start eating wholesome healthy meals that don't cost more than my left nut?

>>729797818
So is it not all as stressful and passion killing as it can seem sometimes?

Are you familiar with >>>/ck/ ? If not, they would love to talk to you some week.

Is there any greater combination than basil, oregano, marjoram, thyme, rosemary, olive oil & salt?

>>729798790

...oh btw, one of the aspects of being a real chef is, to be creative and work with seasonal ingredients and make the best out of it.

The most creative thing you can do, is to add a slice of cheese on a burger.

>>729798863
right then
get a bit of white ocean fish
flour
egg
salt
pepper
fresh dill
cut fish into strips like chicken fingers
roll into your hands to make semi round
hot pan on
olive oil in ( not virgin burns to easy)
fish in egg wash
into flour mixed with chopped dill
roll and coat
into hot pan
fry till crispy
profit

>>729799475
Sometimes I use American cheese, sometimes I use Swiss, sometimes I use cheese sauce, sometimes Pepperjack, we even had a special that had Gouda on it for a while. How many different kinds of cheese do you use on the burgers at your restaurant?

>>729798939
NO!!!!!

>>729799760

Dude... we don't do burgers, we cook. Fuck, you Americans suck.

Fake and gay. I cooked beef stew last Saturday primarily using a dutch oven in an oven and the beef came out as soft as butter.

>>729801752

>>729803496

Googled it, we call that "cocotte" over here and they are great to cook everything. It take some time tho.

Guess OP/that guy is American or something.

>>729796044
How do you feel about horseradish? A friend of mine told me I was weird for ordering my salmon medium rare and asking for side of raw horseradish to lightly dollop onto some bites of my salmon.

>>729796044
should pineapple be used as a pizza topping?

>>729805087
not OP, but i like my salmon the same way

Does water make for a more fluffier scrambled eggs over milk? I dont want to believe it

>>729805087

>>729796044
What is the ultimate way to prepare a steak? Pan seared, grilled, etc?
I swear by pan searing mine rare-med rare depending on the cut, throwing in some butter and basting it near the end with some crushed garlic and a little lemon. Always turns out insanely good, way better than grilling. Gets that nice crust outside when seasoned correctly and the butter adds another level to the flavor and blends in very well with the natural marbling and fat of the steak.

>>729805268
just whip the eggs
don't add anything

>>729805257
Dude thank god I thought I might be the only one eating salmon with horseradish. It's fucking beautiful.

>>729805428
why? i didn't say i did or didn't use it as a pizza topping.

your reading comprehension issue is noted.

>>729805468
season it with salt, pepper, grub rub, pork rub, season salt, mrs. dash, grill it 15 minutes per side, cover in ketchup

>>729796044
is seafood overrated?

>>729805578
if i don't have horseradish, i use wasabi

Hey anon real question here. Dont plan on being a chef but got into cooking recently.

So is salt and pepper like the base flavoring of most meals?

How do I make colorful vibrant looking meals? My flavors are good to great but sometimes my food looks dull.

How do I learn to dress up my presentation?

>>729807451
Breakfast for dinner. Not OP, but a refreshing and delicious idea. Looks great man. Are those pancakes integrated with eggs? I bet that's awesome. I'd take that toaste, scoop some potatoes, bacon/pancake mash up, a couple strips of bacon, and make a badass breakfast sandwich.

Why are sushi chefs called chefs when you don't even cook it?

OP, asking again. Correct way to cook a steak?

>>729808754
Because they prepare the fish and come up with their own recipes. And there is lots of cooked sushi. Eel is often bakes, tempura fried, etc. and making sushi is pretty tough. It's an art form.

>>729799756

Pineapple and jalapeño is a surprisingly delicious combo. Highly recommended. Sweet and spicy, perfect combo.

>>729805186
of fucking course!!
see >>729812173

>>729810685
>do u leave the skin

Asking this also. My Asian friends got me to start eating the fish skin and I'll never go back to not doing so, so if you're hiding the fish color with batter/spice can you sneak the customer into eating the skin?

>>729812173
>Pineapple and jalapeño

That wasn't the question fag. Obviously however the sweet+spicy mix will almost always make something passe become outstanding. It goes back to Ancient Rome where those who could afford it used black pepper & honey (though it's been proved now from Pompeii that the middle class could afford black pepper).

Fwiw I despise pineapple on pizza. It's a great way to ruin the flavor of the pizza itself. That said, it's also a great way to hide the flavor of a shitty pizza, so I guess you're making a statement about the quality of the pizza when you put pineapple on it.
