Anyone drinking wine this weekend?
I've been overdosing on beer lately so I got a 2004 Saint-Emiloin from Chateau Simard
Does that make me pretentious?
>2004
You know that once it leaves the barrel, it can't really age anymore, right?

You know that wine works differently than fortified spirits, right?
>>7885602
Depend on the wine.
what does /ck/ think about my pizza. Ordered from "stoners pizza" in Savannah.
I bet everyone is going to say it looks like shit. The only thing bad was the butter they gave you, as a "dipping sauce"
Honestly, it looks like shit. Papa John's tier bad.
>>7902328
it looks like all the cheese is going to slide off after the first bite
>>7902340
I'd eat that over Papa John's. Still bad, but better than that. Should've gone for sausage and mushroom though.
So /ck/, I've been cooking all my life with substandard tools and have never given much thought to how awful they were until I cooked at my rich friend's house the other day.
Well recently, I got a new job and can afford a few of the finer things.
I ask you, what brands or sets are considered to be the crème de la crème of knives, cookware, and other kitchen instruments? Or at least high tier/cost effective. I want to make sure I'm getting my money's worth and not overpaying just for branding.
Would you guys recommend any japanese knife sets?
Thanks.
Stainless steel non weeb handle one step up from poorfag never get sets tier knives:
Mac Superior
Misuno UX10
Sabatier 200 range with G10 Handle
Pans :
All clad copper core
De Buyer carbon steel skillet.
Tefal non stick
Appliances :
Bamix stick blender
Chef's Choice Trizor XV electric sharpener.

>tefal
>electric sharpener
Do not listen to this man
>>7900123
If you're going to get a non stick skillet you won't do better than Tefal.
Ceramic is a bad meme and all the silly stone inclusions some brands put in their teflon don't help.
I like my coffee how I like my women...
Cheap and easily available like Starbucks?
Unfunny and at page 10?

Running out for some McDonalds, guys.
Anyone want anything?

I want a vanilla cone dollface
Redpill me on Papa John's.
Why do people hate him so much?
>redpill me
i dont know about him but the pizza is nasty
>>7904483
I need more details
What are some ways to spice up Mac and Cheese?
I was honestly going to just pan fry some chicken and herbs, cut it up and toss it in, but I also have some breadcrumbs and veggies I wanna use.
Ideas?
>>7904453
Wtf... Only real Mac and Cheese is baked.
Just stick to Kraft mom got at the store you'll be OK.
acquire other food
throw it in pot
i dont know what you were expecting
>>7904458
>my reading comprehension is nonexistent
the nigger!
So whats the deal with these? Should i have one or are they a meme? Are they good for anything specific?
They're useless unless you're fighting magneto.

Sharper and cut better than steel knives.
>>7903997
Pros:
Stays sharp longer than a steel knife
Cons:
Impossible to sharpen without specialized and expensive equipment
Brittle
Are only available in silly small sizes; nobody makes a proper chef's knife out of ceramic
It's a silly novelty.
I prefer cow milk mozzarella over buffalo mozzarella
>he doesn't make buffalo mozzarella sticks
You're really missing out mate
>>7903942
I like buffalo mozzarella
I just think cow mozzarella is better
I haven't tried buffalo mozzarella, but I've hated everything buffalo I've tried. As best I can tell, everything with Buffalo in the title is just drenched in an overpowering vinegar-based hot sauce. Buffalo pizza(maybe that has buffalo mozzarella? Idk) to buffalo fries to buffalo wings. It's all shit.
Forgive the anime clip; I understand the anime is horrid but I was shown the episode while in a search for a portable way to keep my lunches/dinners hot/cold. You can see it on ( what I understand to be ) Episode 1 of that Shokugeki-anime thing's second season.
What does /ck/ think of lunch jars as opposed to the typical American "lunch pale/lunch box" many of us are used to seeing? Are there any reputable brands? Do they really keep food hot for longer and cold for just as long? Also, can you really just heat a base broth/stock, toss in your veggies and let them cook while you're going about your business because of the heat trapped in the lunch jar?
Im looking for a bento box, it cant be pinku (thats japanese for pink) or any girl color. It has to be of 2 or more kotoba (thats japanese for 2 compartments) and has be be chibi (small) sized. And has to be really kawaii (cute). Also It has to be about 10-20 bux. And you have to post pics of it first (i want to make shure it's kawaii [cute]). And it would be nice if it came with matching chopstick holder (WITH chopsticks). OH! and it CANNOT have any cartoon pictures, or be made out of plastic. It has to be made of ceramic, or something like that. Also it would be nice if it was made in japan. and not in china or corea (korea) or whatever. I have found a bento box similar to the one im describing in e-bay, but it was 1 kotoba, and i dont want my gohan (rice) to touch my other things (it can get wet and i would not like that, plus 2 compartments looks more kawaii)
You mean like a bento box x thermos?
That would seem a bit bulky.

Pic is related to you. If you're serious I hope you find what you need. If you're sarcastic then well played but I'm not specifically looking for it for "bento" reasons. I'd like to experiment with a soup ( tomato bisque, chicken noodle, etc ) on the bottom with a hot sandwich ( grilled cheese, BLT, etc. ) above it with sides or desert on top.

What food has the narrowest window between undercooked and overcooked?
Probably beef wellington
>>7903728
flaky fish, i guess.
similarly, avocados but in regards to ripeness.
>>7903728
rice, eggs
I don't know. I'm not a perfectionist.
Yeah i bought a small jar of it for about $25 just to see what it tasted like, now i have a whole jar of it going to waste.
What can i make with it?
>$25 for salt laced with 2,4-dithiapentane
wew lad
salt stuff

isn't "truffle flavor" a red flag? why not get something with actual truffle?
How bad would it be if I ate a can of sardines a day mercury wise?
I love king oscar brand but they are expensive as fuck, is there any other brands that have cans for like $2?
Ive done it before and started getting intense, debilitating headaches.
>>7903587
Oh shit I just had those a few day ago. Is having a lot of those bad? The can was pretty small, how many should I eat per week?
It's only fish high up the food chain that are high in mercury, sardines are pretty much at the bottom.
They're good for you, eat up!
What do you think would Gordon Ramsey say to my Chicken and eggplant served with a side of fries?
he would say cooking is more than putting shit in an oven and inverting condiment jars over it for an indeterminate amount of time
>>7903534
but I did cook.
He also always says to not over complicate meals.
>>7903525
I don't know what he'll say, but I'll eat that
