Require advice, /ck/. Am doing a burger cookoff on saturday, and I'm going to use a garlic and dill mayo I've mixed up. I want to incorporate horseradish as well, should I mix it in the mayo or into the ground beef? And is it a good idea to mix mustard into the beef? I'm going for strong, bold flavors, while trying to keep it simple.
Ainsley unrelated.
>>9285825
I'd put it into the beef, but what else are you putting in the beef?
>>9285866
Salt, pepper, and egg to hold it together.

Dear /ck/ is there a point where this needs to stop, and have we crossed it yet?
>>9285627
Pig ears are fairly good, never tried snout or the rest but giving it a sous vide seems kinda dumb. Roast that shit like a real man.
anyone feel like all the stuff you sous vide has no soul? i did 36 hours short ribs and they were extremely tender and sound amazing on paper but they didn't impress me much. Maybe because the texture is too uniform?
I still like steaks sous vide, probably because I sear them after which gives them some character.
>>9285642
It's pretty widely known that smoked pork is far better than sous vide.

not going overboard and using actual quality mayonnaise. I recommend Polish mayonnaise.
Also heavy on the black pepper.
Replacing the mayo with 375°F vegetable oil.

I see a lot of Europeans and shit on here talking about how Americans "can't cook" (what?)
And I ask how does that make any logical sense?
What makes it so that a restaurant in France somehow is higher quality than a restaurant in New Orleans
There's no logic in that
>>9285185
>What makes it so that a restaurant in France somehow is higher quality than a restaurant in New Orleans
...the quality of the restaurant?
what the fuck are you even asking? it's not 'logic', it's an observation. we haven't arrived at the fact that americans can't cook through a series of mathematical proofs, we've just seen what they cook and it sucks.
>>9285185
They might be referring to the way many Americans have a shitty palate because of the sugar and chemical infused food that a lot of people eat. Isn't true of all Americans but a decent amount. It's also just trolls finding the most hideous food they can and let posting about it.
ITT: Those who work in a restaurant, or own one, share, discuss about work.
>what kind of restaurant do you work in?
>Where is it located?
>type of food?
>need advice on how to improve it?
Don't share the name of your restaurant of course, you wouldn't want trolls to fuck your reviews.
Those who aren't professional are welcome as well to get advice or stories in case they intend to start their business or plan to become a chef.

I work is a comfort food, southern food place that has live music every night. It's in Florida and it doesn't open until 6pm...then the ticket flood happens.
Can't really improve it, the menu is basic but all the prep is from-scratch so when we run out of something it's 86'd. For example, fried green tomatoes are all mandolined and hand breaded. I guess after hours prep cooks could be a nice addition so the staff didn't have to roll in at 9am for a 6pm dinner service...but whatever.
>>9285096
>live music every night.
that's pretty neat, in my restaurant we only have a broken P.A
>>9285101
It's actually kinda cool, because we seat 80 seats, serve 80 seats and nobody leaves and the bands are good sometimes. But after everybody eats they just drink and it's all on the bartenders so we can do early cleaning. Technically the kitchen is still open but it's already scrubbed so when the doors close we walk.
We need to sort this out once and for all

The bread with no peanut butter.
Bought a can of chickpeas on a whim. Never used them before, what are some good recipes to use them in?
Falafel, hummus.
Use liquid as an egg substitute in baking.
>>9284566
Make your own hummus.
Need a blender, salt, tahine (sesame seed pate), garlic and maybe oil. Tastes good man.

How are you enjoying your diabetes?
Today's my cheat day and I'm starting with some Kroger brand strawberry cheesecake ice cream.
>Base
Cream cheese was pretty bland. Strawberry flavor was nearly absent.
>Mix-ins
Crust Pieces are good but almost non existent. Strawberry pieces were chunks of ice. Fresh fruit is almost always a bad mix-in.
What have you tried / been eating recently /ck/?
Just threw out Kroger brand "Vividly Vanilla" (that I finished). Last time I accidentally got the light version.
>>9284057
The blueberry cheesecake is better, op. And try the turkey hills flavors, they're decent.
holy fucking shit is this good. like fuck man, this is the best ice cream ive ever had. fucking christ I would murder people for a 10 gallon tub of this shit. fucks sake its so good. this will make you smack your mother in her whore face for another pint, its the equivalent of crack.
my only complaint is the brownie texture is weird but its because it sits in the ice cream.
Salted caramel. Have you tried it? What did you think?
