What is your countries favorite foreign food?
Here in Germany people are big on italian kitchen. Constant tv adds and if your town is big enough for a restaurant you can bet there will be an italian restaurant.
>>7392407
Isn't it actually turkish food? I spent a couple weeks in Germany and there were kebabs everywhere.
>if your town is big enough for a restaurant you can bet there will be an italian restaurant
Like pretty much everywhere else in the world.
>>7392438
Turkish food is popular but doesn't go beyond the döner kebab.
Restaurants are rare and people never cook it themselfes.
In America it obviously varies from State to State, but overall the most popular foreign food is also Italian, which also happens to be the most popular foreign cuisine throughout the world.
Legit question: Is cooking actually that difficult to understand? I mean the basics, none of that higher end fancy shit.
I've seen the cringe material here and that's baffling in and of itself, but then there are smaller things like these advanced culinary school kids coming in and taking a good hour just to cut a couple of fucking carrots.
I just don't get it.
You could learn every technique from a book an a couple of hours.
Cooking is a craft though, and needs to be learned through rote repetition.
This is why, regardless of how many books you read, the Mexican crack head preparing your birthday dinner at your favorite restaurant is a much better cook than you will likely ever be.

No, it's not. People who can't cook basic food are stunted and useless. I cook for myself most of the time. Good food. Within half an hour I can have a salmon fillet, roast potatoes, and sauteed vegetables. I taught myself how to cook some dishes, as well as learned a ton from observing my mother/grandparents growing up and in recent years I've used youtube/cookbooks and just redid the same dish until I had it memorized by heart and mastered it through trial/error.
I would not expect my food to satisfy people going to a five star restaurant for a meal, but it's good, hearty, and healthy. A typical meal for me would be pan roasted potatoes or rice, sauteed vegetables, and a baked salmon fillet which is extremely easy to make just drizzle olive oil, rub in generous amount of pepper/salt, wrap in foil, bake in the over at 400F for 15 minutes, serve it with a lemon wedge and dill. I'll do the same with chicken, other meats/fishes. I don't have a grill so I sometimes fry my beef tenderloin in pan.

>I mean the basics
LITERALLY anyone can do that. Not even a hyperbole, but even some blind people can cook.
It's not that difficult bro.
>but then there are smaller things like these advanced culinary school kids coming in and taking a good hour just to cut a couple of fucking carrots.
That's more experience than understanding, but still pretty atrocious from kids coming from a culinary school.
>>7392237
There is some skill and technique in high class dishes though. And then there's molecular gastronomy, which is effectively a science.
Lunch /ck/, you?

Night shift. 3 am is my lunch
A few muesli bars.
A banana.
An apple.
Milk.
Maybe a jelly cup.
And whatever meal we made for lunches (wife and I cook on and off, last one was my goulash).
How do you time your cooking?
>God tier:
Vintage mechanical chronograph, an actual hourglass, a sundial
>High tier:
Mechanical center sweep, a modern mechanical chronograph
>Low tier:
Mechanical with subdial, a quartz watch of any sort
>Pleb tier:
The oven clock
>Kill yourself immediately tier:
The clock on some appliance, your "gut", your computer or tablet
>Do you even cook tier:
Smart phone, smart watch, or "I have never thought about this before"
>do you even cook tier
Anything other than using your internal clock and taking your food off the heat when it's done.
>>7391269
My cooking is ready in its own time. You are dangerously deluded my friend if you think a vintage mechanical chronograph knows how long a banana loaf takes.
does anyone on /ck/ meal prep? any recipes that can be easily converted for meal prep?
>>7391053
Too much work.
>grab some frozen veggies
>can of tuna
>tomato sauce

>>7391053
Yes and no.
I make extra of any soups, stews/ sauces, beans, etc. Anything that will freeze well and keep them in my chest freezer. I use a dry erase marker to put the dates on them, using the cheap gladware containers. I then plan my meals around what's got the oldest dates with a little shuffling around for variety once a week before I go shopping. When I start to get low on containers, I plan a week of meals that freeze well and restock. Between that and my dry stores, I almost always have a month's worth of food ready to go. It's really handy when guests drop by unexpectedly and you can just bust out some homemade chili, or have frozen homemade stock for soup. If they're there for awhile I'll bake some fresh bread and feed them right.
I meal prep on the weekend, usually Sunday. Nothing fancy.
I grill up turkey burger patties, chicken, or fajita meat. Sometimes I just grill up sausage links.
Depending on what meat I've made I usually then either make quinoa, rice with veggies, baked sweet potatoes, or grilled vegetables for fajitas.
For breakfasts I make individual overnight oatmeals or stone ground oatmeal every 3-4 days and usually chop up fresh fruits.
I also usually make a batch of pasta and a basic red sauce to eat throughout the week as well. If I need a gravy for anything I've made I go ahead and make that up too.
Usually this Takes around 4-5 hours to prep, cook it all, portion out , and clean up.
Sometimes longer if I'm making more involved stuff. But, I enjoy not having to cook for the rest of the week.
Post, rate, and be autistic.

Looks like something from a halfway house, for hobos or past prisoners.
There is nothing more awkward than the moment you realize you're getting a double cheek kiss.
I honestly feel sorry for anyone who only has that as a kitchen space.
-no counter space for prep
-no counter space next to stove top
-top drawer doesn't really work since there is a sink there - have to bend down to 2nd drawer to get silverware
-no microwave.
-no hood for stove top

Finally tried scallops. I didn't really like them. They were grilled.
Too bad, I really had high hopes.
Well, you are wrong.
Willing to bet you had scallops that were overcooked as fuck.
Why didn't you like them? Texture or flavor?
If you say "rubbery" well then you can point the finger at the chef, not the scallops.
I've always thought they tasted a little bland compared to other seafood. They definitely need butter and good seasoning.
Anyone /keto/ here? I'm in the process of getting rid of all the carbs in my pantry. Share ideas and recipes pls.
Semen, lots and lots of semen.
>>7387924
>getting rid of all the carbs
do you even know how to eat or do you just do what the fad magazines tell you to do?
>>7387946
Not him, but I'm doing a quick cut and keto is a great and faster way to do it without losing too much muscle. Stop assuming everyone is a meme and does meme stuff.
I need some good cringe. Anyone got a link to that Filipino girl cooking carbonara and pouring a bottle of water into the sauce?
Very stwang

> trying to get into Italian cooking and wines while trying to get /fit/
Of all combinations why did I have to get into both /fit/ and /ck/ at the same fucking time
>>7392279
fit and ck are both about improving the quality of your life so it's a natural marriage
quality over quantity when cooking is the way to go

My personal suggestion would be to stop posting on /ck/, and just lurk every now and then.
Is there anything better than the burritos for 2AM 7-11 food? They stopped doing pizza/hot dogs I guess, and I've had to get the burritos a few times, and they're fairly passable for 2 bucks.
>>7392187
looks like poo in the loo
I grew up in Hawaii and used to stop at 7-11 all the time driving home in the middle of the night from wherever.
Your burrito looks like shit compared to the bento boxes they have there.
Pic related, but not the best example.
>>7392190
They've improved a lot, this one is from like last year or so, and it was complete crap
Why do Filipinos put freaking hotdogs in their pasta?
That's not a Filipino thing, bruh.
If you're not putting hot dogs in your macaroni, you're not living your life correctly.
Because they're degenerates.
>>7392123
Everyone puts hotdogs in their Mac N Cheese... If you don't, you need to rethink all of your life decisions and find out where everything went so wrong.
Tri tip steak, bacon, jalapeño, onion, shrimp, lemon, asparagus...
