have been using a pair of knives somewhat frequently and am trying to figure out the best way to test the sharpness, before and after sharpening. What is the best material to test the sharpness of a chef's knife and stainless steel pocket knife?

Cut a sheet of paper in half. Shave body hair. Slowly slide fingertips across the blade.

People always freakout when I do the last one but the goal is not to draw blood or anything. You should only be able to make it like a centimeter down the blade before the skin starts to peel back. Should be painless and bloodless.
>>
>>8277790
all of these

also running the knife across the top of your thumbnail at a sharp angle, if it sticks or slides across it's dull, if it shaves a layer off it's fine
>>
You should be able to tell if a knife is sharp or not by using it.

I made stuffed acorn squash today and it was fantastic, though I'd probably change the recipe around a bit before making it again. It got me thinking about stuffed foods and I'm curious what your favorite food to cram full of of shit is? Also I have a leftover acorn squash, what else do with it?

I like to do stuffed poblanos personally. Also how much leftover acorn squash we talking? If you've got a whole one, cut that thing in half, roast it at like 400 for half an hour-ish, chuck it in the food processor and make a puree.

Then all you gotta do is mix it in a pot with some half and half, about a cup of brown sugar, and 3 eggs and you've got yourself a top notch pie filling. I usually do squash pies with a ginger snap crust but you could do anything and it would be delicious
>>
>>8277590
Yeah I got a whole one left. I bought two because of the recipe, but there was only two of us eating so I only cooked up one. That sounds good though, don't have a food processor though, keeping my fingers crossed for xmas.
>>
>>8277590
I also really like the idea of stuffed poblanos, they're already my favorite pepper, probably way better than stuffing a bell.

I think that looks alright, a pretty basic dinner. I would prefer brown rice over white rice though.

I microwaved some last-night's cabbage soup, Karelian pies and boiled some carrots.

OH you meant /thread, no i mean i want the common links for beginners on the regular /tea/ threads specifically

So I'm kinda new to cooking and I've always read on here about chicken stock and saving it after you cook chicken or soup or something. I have a buncha chicken thighs in the crockpot that will be done in an hour or so. I had soy sauce, some honey, bbq, mustard, and a little chicken stock to keep things moist.

My question is weather or not I should/could save the juices left in the crockpot after I take out the chicken thighs. Is that technically a stock? Has some chicken fat floating in it and smells amazing so I don't want it to go to waste if it can be repurposed. I was thinking of just saving it in a tupperware for using it to cook rice in or flavor potatoes or something in the future. Thanks ahead of time for your help!

Just accidentally posted this on /sp/.... Now I might not be able to shitpost during MNF. Life is pain.

Stock is what you added to keep it moist. Now it's... soup or something. Or sauce waiting to happen.

Making rice with it is a fine idea. Just dilute it until it's palatable, perhaps with stock. That'll go nicely with your leftovers.
>>
>>8276760
Cheers, thanks. I was kinda worried about safety issues but I mean as long as it's all cooked, there shouldn't be any danger reusing it. I figure I can use it for something in the future.
>>
>>8276803

Meat water with a moderate pH is a tempting home for microorganisms, so the fact that you cooked it once doesn't exempt you from proper food handling. Fortunately, sticking a bit of leftovers in the fridge is not rocket science.

Getting a gallon or more of fresh chicken stock from a simmer down to a temperature that's not going to heat up your entire fridge is a more interesting logistical challenge.

Naturally you are going to die from something much more interesting than food poisoning, so it's probably not worth worrying about.

Are you an improve cook or do you hoard recipes?
15 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
When I make a new dish I always refer to existing recipes but I might change it depending on personal preferences. Once I've made the dish a couple times I tend to remember the recipe so I rarely refer back to it again.

I do have a ton of cookbooks though; I use them for ideas and for that initial time or two cooking the dish before I've memorized the recipe.
>>
>>8297157
this.
>>
>>8297146

If I'm going for something specific I'll reference a recipe until I feel that I know the dish well enough to make it on my own. If I'm just going for something good without targeting a specific dish I just freestyle it.

I don't bake but if I did I'd follow the recipe rigidly.

Heat causes proteins to shrink. Same reason why meat shrinks when you cook it.

It would never work. Basically they'd have to raise prices and, because capitalism breeds unlimited greed, they'd just fuck up the drink in some other way toreduce costs and increase profit margins.

I just got back from McDonald's and feel like a piece of shit.

There is a McD's right by my apartment that I go to often. I went there earlier today and got a Quarter Pounder with Cheese, 6 chicken McNuggets, and a Sausage McMuffin. After work I was craving it all over again and ended up stopping by the drive-thru again.

I was pretty worried the same girl at the first window would still be on shift so I put on a winter hat and put the collar of my jacket up. When I drove up with my exact same order as earlier she was there to take my money.

She said, "you're here AGAIN?" as I was handing her the money while trying to avoid eye contact and I just lost it. I have social anxiety and I ended up retracting my arm so fast I spilled the change all over her side and started stuttering something about "my wife" and then I started to hyperventilate and felt an anxiety attack coming on.

I just floored it and I am so glad there was no one in front of me because I peeled out of there. I can still see her face.

I'll have to start going to a new McDonald's even though the closest one is like 10 minutes away. Maybe I'll switch to Wendy's I don't know.

Anyway, aside for just sharing one of the worst and most embarrassing moments of 2016 so far I was wondering how you would have reacted and responded to the cashier's remark.
