I think we can all agree that Japan makes the best knives. By knives I mean tools for cutting food. Not for smashing apart frozen blocks of chicken meat, or prying open a can of soup, or whatever you do with your German knives.
But who makes the worst knives? The Germans, of course. The question is, why haven't they done anything to improve their products in the last 50 years? If a car company did that they would be out of business overnight.
I cook better than you and I use an Ikea knife
It's not the tool, it's the person using the tool

So what you are saying is, we should all drive Ford Pintos?
>why haven't they done anything to improve their products in the last 50 years?
When you reach max level, you stop leveling
Eggs, bacon, potatoes and ketchup heart for warmth on cold morning.
Sausage on a bun with a little catsup.

Hi /ck/
How many vegans are here?
About 15% (+- 3) of the people here are vegan.
Only the janitors and trolls.
You people told me to stay vegan its better for you but i feel like death approaches every passing day
Im going to end up strangling a chicken and eating it raw and fucking dying from pneumonia
I've been baking my own bread for little over a year and a half. Usually I use recipes out of the Tassajara Bread Book as it was a gift a few years back that served as a good basis for understanding bread baking.
Lately, I've been interested in branching out and baking some pumpernickel, as I've always been a fan of its flavor. But after doing some light research, as an American, I realize that traditional European pumpernickel and traditional North American pumpernickel are quite different from one another.
I'm not looking for the flavor of a dark-colored rye bread, at least I don't think I am, which seems to be what the North American traditional recipe becomes according to what I've been reading.
If you have any recipes for pumpernickel, I'd be interested in seeing them.

German pumpernickel looks like pic related and has a sweetish taste. It was invented for it's long storage qualities. It's commonly used as a military ration. It's not something that's eaten on a day-to-day basis.

Disregard the guy eating the bread with a spoon like an idiot.
>>7223897
Where as the North America tradition includes flour and commercial yeast, which is what I am more going for.
Rye and North American pumpernickel have very distinctive tastes from one another in my experience. yet many recipes I've seen seem to describe them to be more similar than different. I feel like I'm missing something.
I've never had sushi before, so I'm thinking about ordering some from the place around the corner. What would you recommend for a first try?
i have also never had sushi
>>7223803
rice and fish
Nigiri (rice block with fish on)
Maki (rice cylinder with stuff inside)
Temaki (cones of rice with things in)
that's the simple stuff, if there's a noodle or mushroom dish that's a good bet for a first timer too, don't go insane and order too much though because because it looks less food than it is.
>>7223820
forgot to say: salmon and prawn might be the easiest flavours, but I like tuna and salmon roe a lot
don't get any californian rolls they're shit
Ok i have a large bucket with pic related
What can I do with it that doesnt only involve eggs and shrimps?
throw in some bologna and raisin bread and cheese slices
Coleslaw.

I'll be going on a date and I want to bring a lunch for the both of us and have a small picnic. I want to stray away from sandwiches and wraps and go for something convenient and light. I was thinking fruits and cheese but that's more of a snack. Anything that's mildly impressive, filling, and not going to gouge my wallet?
spring rolls maybe? soup is a bit more in season though if you have the ability to heat it up
>>7223498
I won't have the ability to hear anything up, I should've added that.
BBQ for that bitch.
I love making ridiculous/experimental burgers, what you guys think:
Red Pepper Brioche Bun, Ground NY Strip, Poblano, Portobello, PepperJack, Dill Mayo/Mustard
>>7223385
>more mushroom than beef
would eat anyway
>>7223385
Hard to judge the size on that thing, but it looks too tall to take a bite out of. Actual description of what's in it sounds goog enough though. Personally I probably would never bother making that, but to each their own.
i approve of your efforts and would like to see more.
Also, trip reports.
I must say, this with ketchup on it is my absolute favorite fast food burger. Culver's really does have the best
for me its the mcchicken, the best fast food burger.
Why do Northern Americans value chain fast food more than homemade fast food?
You cannot tell me that a $1 burger tastes better than one you made yourself.

whats this meme from aga9n
When will I eat it?
>>7223293
call dominos right now
>>7223302
I called and asked them about it, but they just said they don't have Battletoads.
Found myself watching this for the first time with my family on New Year's Eve, have since watched the rest of series 4.
What did we think of this qtpie (lol pie geddit)? Was hoping she'd win, shame she cocked up her wedding cake.
>>7223258
She cried too much. It annoyed me to no end.
I would put my pastryroll in her pie though.
>>7223263
>not just snuggling nonsexually
also she's gay apparently
>thought she was oxbridge like me
>actually just a UCL pleb like all the rest
disappointed tbqh
>>7223263
Unfortunately she's a pescatarian. Doesn't eat no meat.
>"Here is your medium Hawaiian pizza sir. That will be $31.45 plus tip and a delivery charge of $3. Oh al it is a $2 charge to do a debit transaction."
Damn bro, shits getting expensive these days. Oh well, thanks for bringing my lazy ass a pizza, I wrote you in a $5 tip, make sure they give it to you. You be safe out there, lots of crazy people these days. Thanks again man.
Sorry man we don't tip in this country.
>>7223212
That's clearly just a pepperoni, you expect me to pay for this shit?
Why do Americans hate broccoli so much? I mean it's like a irl meme in films and tv shows
Do you like eat it raw and not cooked and that's why it doesn't taste good?
>>7223067
They naturally lack the sugar/high fructose corn syrup Americans require to satisfy their palate.
>>7223087
I'm American and I can attest to this. I need a high amount of sugar even though I'm diabetic.
I'd blame bad cooking. Boiling any vegetable until it's olive green with little or no seasoning will ruin it. It seems to be this afterthought side in an attempt to create a healthy well-rounded meal.
>we have meat and potatoes
>need something green to complete
>end of thought
This is a McDonalds.

Marie's Italian Tomato Sauce general

Excellent OP. If I had my way her sauce would never die. Good to know there's someone else of the same opinion.
I bet she was a solid 8/10 when she was young
>>7222825
Literally everything she does is wrong.
