Does authentic pho require you to glue the ingredients to the cieling? Damn, I've been doing it wrong.

Yo /ck/
So today I made Ragu a la Bolognese (with handmade fresh Tagliatelle) and I used the "official recipe" of Bologna, as per this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dk6q80LZI-A

It calls for:

Olive oil and Butter

Onion
Carrot
Celery

Pancetta (couldn't find any so used Speck, which was actually very tasty)
Beef mince

Red wine
Beef broth with some tomato paste mixed in
Whole Milk

Salt and Pepper

The problem is, despite using top quality ingredients (all of them, except the veg and milk was premium-grade Italian stuff and meat from a top local butcher) it was bland. I know, you can sort of expect that just from the ingredient list (e.g no garlic), but I was surprised. This recipe supposedly came out because Ragu a la Bolognese is such a point of contention in Italy that the City of Bologna felt they had to have an "official one", indeed many of the people commenting on the video said it's great.

I guess I don't get it. Is Ragu a la Napolitana more exciting? What's your GOAT Ragu recipe?

How did you put it together? Explain your process a bit?
>>
>>7852342
Started by rendering the speck (I cubed it first), then added the onions/carrots/celery till they were translucent. Added the beef and browned it (took about 20mins), then added the wine and after about 10 mins the tomato paste diluted in beef broth. I let it simmer on very low heat for an hour and a half, added the whole milk, cooked for another 20 minutes then took it. What do you think?

By the way, I was thinking that maybe slow-cooking it would help? Things tend to turn out great when I slow-cook them.
>>
>>7852354
Forgot to mention I added the butter (it was this delicious white, Italian stuff) and the olive oil in with the onion/carrot/celery.

What are you drinking this weekend?
I got pic related someone told me it's the best multipurpose rum, will have myself some cuba libre, any suggestions?

I'm actually taking periodic shots to combat some growing strep throat.
It's also my defacto whiskey because it's always on sale for $9
If I'm feeling fancy I'll get bullit rye

Just save yourself the trouble and have a rum and coke. The lime makes it a sticky sweet mess and it's terrible.

Depends on what type of coffee you like, how many people you're making it for, how much time you have.

I like the Aeropress if I'm making an americano-style coffee for myself, but it can only do one cup. The Moka pot is better for multiple people as you can set it and serve nice concentrated coffee for 2 or 3 people, also if you like your coffee strong this is better than the press or the aeropress.
Personally I find the french press a pain in the ass, it never works for me. Always comes out too bitter or too watery. I can see it being a good solution to multiple cups of americano though.
>>
>>7840909
I'd like the French press more if it didn't have a weird cult following of elitist faggots, makes good coffee though

Fat burgers are absolute shit, smashed burgers (see serious eats) are far superior.

Burgers that thick need lower temp for longer. Kinda hard to do right in a pan. Indirect heat over charcoal, though... So good.

How long doe HOMEMADE pancake batter store in the fridge?

I know the instant powdered stuff lasts for a long time, but I imagine that since you're using a real raw egg, the homemade stuff won't last nearly as long.

Why not just prepare the powders in a bag for storage, and when you want to make pancakes just crack some eggs into it. No reason to prepare batter in bulk for pancakes.
>>
>>7857184
Actually,
I'm now reading suggestions to just cook the entire batter, then reheat the pancakes.
Anyone ever done this?

The craft beer meme has gone too far

can i dip you in beer batter, hot stuff?
>>
i tried a lot of craft beers and it made me appreciate just plain budweiser more, though i still prefer yuengling for a good common beer.

so many craft beers are ass, anything fruit flavored is sickeningly sweet, 2hoppy4u IPAs, beers similar to budweiser but 3x the price, etc.

i did have a few good stouts, and sour beers, but acting like craft beer is inherently good is just wrong

The IPA phase has to fucking end. It just can't go on, it's too obnoxious.

Hello fu/ck/ers....
Recently got hired as executive chef of a restaurant and bar that does several million dollars per year in sales. Place has been open for around a decade and we are always busy.

The menu when I came on board was a shitshow, a straight up dumpster fire... 15 apps... 50 entrees, just all over the board, no real cohesion to it. The problem I'm finding is that the kitchen and storage is just too small for all these unnecessary extra items. I'd rather offer a dozen entrees that we can executive perfectly every time over and over instead of 50 entrees that are spreading us too thin.

Do you guys have any suggestions or rules of thumb as to the number of items I should offer in each category? I'm thinking 10 apps, 3 entree salads, 3 pastas, 4 fish, 5 meat entrees, and a vegetarian entree or two. I'd like to cross utilize ingredients wherever possible (pickled veg from the lunch menu sandwich used in a dinner app) etc.

Help me dudes.

When it comes to (loosly) vegetarian entrees, consider mushroom fricasee, It's almost like an odds and ends dish. You've got cream and eggs handy all the time, all you have to do is get a good mix of mushrooms, which can also be served as an accompaniment to meats and fish, added to pasta, used in soups and sauces, marinated and served alongside other pickles, or incorporated into a dip. Both flexible and on the rise as far as perceived ritziness goes.
>>
>>7856082
I mean you got the job, you're more qualified to restructure a menu than any other aspie on this board. Don't be lazy, if you're really lost just look at the top 5 restaurants in your city and copy their structure.
>>
>>7856101
I'm far from lazy... but I would also like to be armed with good information, like a website or something that I could present to the owners to help drive home WHY downsizing the menu and keeping it tight would be beneficial... The owners are great dudes, but they are old school in that their mindset is bigger is always better.

Alright louie /ck/ youve helped me out in the past, so i return again for shitty cooking episode 2!

pics of my shitty cooking included as per usual

My question today: why do I seem to keep making half cooked fish?? I have made this salmon filet 2 nights in a row now, same problem both times.

I cooked this piece of fish on cast iron grill skillet, same one I use for all pieces of meat grilled indoors. I cooked it skinless side down for 5 minutes, 3 minutes skin side down, on high heat, per instructions. Obviously the heat was too high as the outside is SCORCHED. Still fucking tasty.

The problem? The inside is fucking PINK bordering on RAW. The taste, fresh off the grill, I would describe as "barely warm" except for the thin parts and the outer layer. Tasted okay because I dont mind eating shit burned and it the seasoning was fire, but whats concering me at this point is the possible fucking PARASITES I have living in me now from eating this fucking thing.

How the fuck do I stop doing? Am I gonna be sick?
>>
>>7855956

You'll probably be fine.

The method for fixing burned food is usually turning the heat down.

The method for getting the heat to transfer to the middle of the food is to cook for a longer time to allow the thermodynamics time to do their magic.

sooo... to recap...

cook at a lower temperature for a longer time.
>>
let the fish hit room temp first

You're not drying your meat, it's frozen, and/or you're not using enough heat/letting your wok get hot enough.
