Is my stove too pathetic to make this wok worthwhile? This is full blast on the biggest burner. I could get the appropriate grate if necessary
>weeb cooking
Just follow european/french cooking techniques and leave the gook food for the motherluvin' gooks.
does flame need to be touching the metal to properly wok?

think this would work well enough, or is it just a half measure that's ultimately going to disappoint me?
Do these taste good or should I just throw them away?
Feel free to discuss other nuts you may have gotten for Christmas.

How was it?
Home cook here, giving a step-by-step recipe, including timing, on how to get your eggs benedict to come out better.
http://pastebin.com/eASedbyj
This recipe DOES scale ; you may want to very lemons (or not use a key lime) depending on sweetness, size, and citric acid (I used two small lemons and one large ones, but they were fairly acidic). Same goes for pepper - I had to use three dashes of it, but it was weak.
Tools can vary as well, this is just a basic outline of the things you'll need.
If you don't know how to separate eggs, you crack it, peel one half off while holding the egg over a bowl, then flip the yolk into the other half. You use the egg white's own weight to peel it off the yolk and drop it into the bowl. Finish by balancing it on your fingers with them slightly spread to get the last of it out.
Have a trashcan nearby.
Be more concerned about getting egg yolk into the whites than vice-versa, especially if you're using them to cook (waffles, etc) ; so if you break them dump real fast into the other bowl.
Goes well with champagne that has orange slices soaking in it.
Feel free to ask other questions.
How well does hollandaise sauce keep? When I wake up I can't be fucked to go through the effort of making any but if it keeps well I would probably make a batch the night before and toss it in the fridge.

Not well sugar (lemon juice), water, proteins - even with the emulsifier, salt, and butter it in it'll only last for about week (longer/shorter, depending on how dry your fridge/area is).
Correctly made and evenly blended as the recipe calls it should freeze effectively and keep for about a month (like a solid block of butter would), although I haven't tried nor tested this.
>tfw I have eggs benedict every Christmas
Was good as usual, love that shit.

got my first trial shift as a commis chef
they said they want to see how I handle myself
I've never worked in a kitchen before, how do I not fuck this up?
>>8405480
Practice cutting vegetables, boning poultry and meat, filleting fish and preparing shellfish, preparing cold deserts, salads, stocks and sauces etc.
Depends on what sort of quality the restaurant is but your job will mainly be preparation and some of the less advanced cookery.
>Chef
>Never worked in a kitchen
>>8405480
Did you lie about your qualifications or can you actually cook?
Either way, don't panic and work hard. Most importantly, listen
>tfw you caved into the christmas feast and ate a huge amount of delicious food
Fuck I'm stuffed.
How you doing co/ck/'s? Waistband big yet?
I ate some ham with corn and a had a lot of the potatoe steak fries but besides that all I had was a slice and a half of cake.
What a miserable Christmas.
>>8404966
Binge 'n purge, baby. Feeling great, famalam.
>>8404966
To answer your question, I'm lying in bed wearing size 3xl pajama bottoms, and I usually wear a size large. I'm bloated as fuck and had to borrow fucking pjs. Yeah, I ate too much.
Family got me a copper pan for christmas
is it a meme or actually useful
also cookware general/christmas gift general I guess
the performance isn't a meme, but the price is.
so as a gift it's not a meme.
>>8403513
not very durable, but for home use that shouldn't raise issue unless you're lazy/clumsy
>>8403513
I think copper bottom pans lined with stainless steel are the best money can buy. It's not worth it to buy one yourself unless you're rich but as a gift it is excellent

I got this 1kg of broccoli for $2. Beat that
I got an extra chromosome for free
beat that
Chinese supermarket a few miles away has huge bags of not-so-great produce for $1 each. Last time I bought broccoli, it was 5lbs of the stuff. Removing the stuff that was inedible, there was a little over 3lbs left, so a tad less than 1,5kg for half the price you paid.

Dumb 3rd worlders
Just found out the KFC near me has an all you can eat buffet
Has anyone here been? Do they have the fries?
It sucks. The two near me don't have fries. They don't put out the extra crispy. They only put out one chicken at a time (2 breasts 2 thighs, 2 legs) and it's never warm and almost always empty or one piece sitting in there, always the worst looking piece. The only thing to do is eat the slaw and mac n cheese and mashed potatoes which isn't what I paid for because I wanted chicken. No tenders. No biscuits ever. It really just sucks.

That also is my experience.

How long do you microwave grapefruit before serving?
Asking for an executive chef
Three to four... is the number of medications I'm currently taking for alcoholism or other mental health issues that preclude me from consuming grapefruit at this time.
Also: white > red
About 60 seconds. Any longer and you'll burn your dick when you shove it into the fruit.
Hey I'm from /pol/ and I was filling my mouth with my usual liquid cheese from walmart and I noticed it tasted like shit
Whats the best tasting cheese?
>>8405281
>Hey I'm from /pol/
Who gives a fuck?
>Whats the best tasting cheese?
Depends on what you're going to use it for, or the wine it's going to be paired with.
>>8405282
Get the fuck out of here you pretentious cunt.
>>8405281
Best cheese is the same as the best people, you as a /pol/ should know this.
