Allright so I wanna learn to cook. Im a complete beginner, I will start from zéro.
What are some good ressources? Books, youtubers, websites, maybe some ck guides?
A good start for me would be ck image guides of simple meals. Is there an archive somewhere?
Nobody ? Pls answer, I stopped drinking and need something to fill the void.

>something to fill the void.
Get a job.
Summer is coming up, I want to look decent. That is, loose a few pounds (like 30).
What are some snacks I can eat when the little hunger comes sneaking upon me?
Snacks that got little calories, taste good, are filling and have some nutritional value?
You're not losing thirty pounds in three months

I think its feasible. Then make it 25.
Bananas
Im gona buy my mom a rice cooker today because she needs one.
I wanna get her a really nice one because she's basically the only one in her house who does anything especially cooks. Any advice on brands? I'd also like to know what store to go to. There's a Sears, JC penny, Walmart and other various department stores near me I can go to.
If it's not zojirushi don't bother
>>8750202

This is the one I have, it's great. Cheap and super easy to use, makes great rice. You could get a zojirushi off Amazon, but they're a like $300+ and probably way fancier than you need.
Is it really worth all the extra time involved to make Fries/Chips the way Heston Blumenthol does? I mean I'm sure of course these are way better than what you get at a casual restaurant but come on five cooking steps to make the most common side dish?

>Freeze Potatoes
>Fry Potatoes
>Freeze Potatoes (again)
>Fry potatoes

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_Cooked_Chips
I'm curious to try them because hell who doesn't love fried potatoes but taking what seems like half a day preparing this sounds well stupid.
twice frying is the standard method to make french fries and shit. this just adds one step.
i personally microwave my chips before twice frying. it dries out the surface nicely and you can rough them up a bit better without them falling apart.
making chips at home is dumb anyway. in fact any kind of deep frying without a commercial fryer is just a huge ballache

It's only worth it if you're autistic.

I had these today and they tasted like shit so I put them in a ziploc and threw them in the fridge.
Avoid.
What restaurant/fastfood chain/food place are you a shameless shill for?
I will forever worship Publix subs.
>>8749344
Checkers is GOAT!
Too bad it's only prevalent in the fucking hood. Feel the need to CC whenever I have to get that sweet spicy chicken or bacon crisp.
I'll second the Publix subs, the cuban is my go-to.

>cashier remembers you
>cashier remembers you from highschool
>realize buying food is completely normal
>realize part of cashier's job is to be nice to you
Literally a non-problem. I'll talk with my cashiers and tell them what I'm planning to make.

hey, so I made a thread about my job a few months ago and got a lot of really good questions and responses. had a good time. so I guess I'll try again.
ask a guy that works at a place that grows/processes/packages primarily organic frozen vegetables/fruit anything.
a few disclaimers:
>I will not ever disclose company name/location. so don't ask. it's America and that's all I'm gonna tell you.
>I am not an expert or some kind of food biologist, but I know a lot of "insider" things on how your frozen veg is manufactured from my line of work.
with that said, what do you want to know? what kind of frozen veg do you like best?
/ck/ is kinda a slow board so I'll keep checking this thread when I have time until it 404's
>>8747995

just start posting as often as possible it will be fine
>>8748034
