I'm assuming most of us on /ck/ are "thrifty" when it comes to cooking. What are your go-to's when you're trying to save money?

I usually buy yogurt and sardines, dry beans, and bulk meat that I get on sale. I just picked up 6 lbs of pork chops for $.97/lb. I'm going to divide them up and freeze them. I got all this for $20. I usually eat lunch at the restaurant I work at. This will last me a week here.

What about you /ck/?

Potatoes and other root vegetables, beans and rice.

Pea soup is always nice.

10 pound bag of rice, $5 at Wal-Mart.
Whatever meat is cheap because the sell-by date is today.
Day old bread, 50ยข a loaf.
Cheese, $2 a pound if it's on sale.
Vegetables, usually frozen.

There are other things, but those are my staples.

I've tried broiling, smoking pot cast iron, reverse searing. None of it comes close to the flavor of grilling. I'm talking about gas grilling too, it's not even a charcoal thing. I already get my indoor steaks pink in the middle and browned/blacked on the outside. Is there any more I can do or are indoor steaks just limited this way.

Crikey! That looks like the floor setting I had at the Hare Krishnas' for the free lunch when I was at university. No prosletyzing during lunch (dinner a different matter) just all you could stuff for free.

Al/ck/oholics, what are some good tasting but not shit-for-you drinks.

Got a huge amount of whiskey and Kahlua that I don't want to drink because of the calories.

They're all shit for you health wise, so for the point of this post we'll consider low-calorie alcohol to be "healthy"

The only healthy alcohols are the bases:
- vodka
- rum
- whiskey
- gin
- brandy
- etc.

^ pretty much any hard alcohol that is only pure alcohol with no carbs or protein. From there you add a calorie free mixer (coke zero is my fav) and you have the healthiest alcoholic drink you can have.
>>
>>8137593
eventually all alcohol maniacs end up drinking el cheapo vodka and mixing/chasing it with water or soda water, it's pretty much the cheapest and healthiest way to get liquored up
>>
>>8137612
Coke Zero and healthy hahaha
Just mix some whiskey with water. You'll be perfectly fine. Takes away some of the bite and you actually taste your liquor.

How do you find the magic sweet spot between not enough heat and undercooked rice, and too much heat that causes the rice to boil over?

Bring it to a boil, then turn it down to a simmer.

1) rinse your rice so it doesn't have that thick sticky scum like OP pic does

2) rice cooker

that's a baked potato, the chicken pasta with red sauce is ok too.

their soft serve ice cream with the dark chocolate syrup is some of the best I've had, not many places have good soft serve.

Neat idea, but impractical. How are people supposed to keep track of the time (etc.) for the eating contest yet still serve other customers?

The key to a food truck is speed & simplicity.

I do agree that fried food is a good idea for a food truck though. Frying is simple and fast. It can be used for many different foods as well.

>Neat idea, but impractical. How are people supposed to keep track of the time (etc.) for the eating contest yet still serve other customers?
See, that's the main issue. You would record the time a person is given their food, and they come back with finished food. Only problem is if they go and just throw the food away I suppose, but why the fuck would people do that?

You would put a time next to certain meals (only some would have the timed eating gimmick like a 3" corndog and shit.

How do I make bread crumbs?

I wanna deep fry some stuff, but dont have any bread crumbs. I have some normal bread and a bunch of crackers.
23 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
Toast the bread, then grind it up in a blender or food processor (or I guess you could do it by hand). Alternatively, first grind the bread - don't grind too finely - then melt a little butter in a pan and toast the crumbs til golden.

Crackers make good coatings too, you can grind them in a food processor or just put them in a bag and smash them with something heavy.

There are people out there that still use Italian bread crumbs instead of panko?

>Toast the bread, then grind it up in a blender or food processor (or I guess you could do it by hand)

This.

Or if you want to use the crackers just toss those in the food processor, or stick them in a plastic bag and smash.
