just a little too pink
I don't like bugs
i can't believe people waste their time and presumably money, cooking a steak just to make a shitposting thread to "trigger" /ck/
congrats op, you sure showed us
Im hungry but is 2:40 am here, can you guys give me some advise so i can eat something tasty with the common ingredients everyone has in their houses
>>9188251
make omblet with little salt than eat it separatetly lu with cheese make sure the cheese its chese
slow cook some chicken in brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic and onion for 3 hours then tear into that shit
Go to bed
i know how to cook, but im in a situation where i have to get cheap ass food for a little while which is unusual for me, so im looking at stuff like ministrone soup.
some recipies (which i'm looking at for ideas) say to use pasta sauce with stock. should i do that? or should i be using cheap pasata, or fresh tomatoes? buying tomatoes fresh at the moment is a bit expensive so i'd prefer not to, but i'd also prefer whatever i make to not turn out like shit.
>>9188140
P.S. how long do lentils stay good in containers?
>>9188140
'Go 'za
>>9188140
Just buy canned tomatoes, and if you make your own stocks then that's an added bonus as well.
Tell me about macarons.
Had some of them at a patisserie today. They tasted very dry and overly sweet but the flavour is alright. Expensive as fuck for their size.
Are they simply meme foods or is there some depth in them?
>>9188116
Good shit
Meh usually but on occasion breddy good
>>9188116
>>9188116
>very dry and overly sweet
kinda the point. basically cotton candy for grown ups.
I like to buy onion buns and either muenster cheese or mozzarella, or both. Put cheese on onion bun and microwave it until it is melted. I than eat the 4 sandwiches. They were dipped in thousand island or other sauces that I like. Even though I live alone, the microwave chime makes my heart jump. I wish it could be muted, and my self would not flinch.
Why the fuck wouldn't you toast or grill (fry) it? It would be decent to eat then
Also, I agree, microwave sounds are annoying and should have a mute feature considering most things you would microwave are done in a matter of seconds or minutes
Has there ever been a more powerful duo in the culinary world?
what's with the silhouette on the right? not even a funny photoshop. >>/bant/
>>9188054
that's Cordial Ivan Dorvil, the nation's leading Haitian chef.

Don't Haitians eat mud?
Has anyone ever purchased pans or utensils or cookware from the Townsend website? I'm interested in buying a few things, pans and stoneware, but there aren't that many reviews on the website. I'd like to support what they're doing, but not if it's actually overpriced crap.
This is more of a /his/ topic. /ck/ is more for posting pics of well-done steaks and whining about Jack.
That said, as a cross-boarder, their hardware is legit. Very well made. They really tried to make period-accurate things that serve a function, especially for Living History people that completely live in the time period when they're on a site.
What do you guys cook when you go camping?
Depends if youre doing conventional, drive in and camp, camping, or a hike in.
Took some bacon and hot dogs and such on a hike in. It was a pain to bring in, plus a bear showed up later. Would not recommend. Been bringing dehydrated meals from that point on.
In the event of more conventional camping, roast some weenies/smokies over the fire. Maybe wrap up some carrots, potatoes and such in tinfoil with some butter and spices, and throw it near the fire for a bit. Usually my friends and I wrap up a large yam in tinfoil and chuck it in the fire for 30+ minutes. By the time the 30 minutes is up, the outside is burnt as fuck, but the rest of it has softened up, and its ready for chow. So long as you have a grate or something over the fire, you can wrap and cook tons of stuff.
Or bring a small grill/stovetop and cook whatever.

I ran out of culinary inspiration years ago and don't cook anymore, but I want to get back into the habit and git gud at it again
How do I get back into the swing of things? Time was I'd watch the cooking channel (food network is shit), read through menus of gourmet restaurants and then dig through my library of cookbooks but now I have no tv, my cookbooks are in storage and I don't even know any big name restaurants anymore
>>9187829
Same for me, although I still cook I haven't made anything new for a long time. Whenever I watch a cooking show it's stuff that I already know how to make, or it's just something ridiculous that I don't want to make. Reading old recipes from thousands of years ago was interesting for a while though, if you haven't done that.

I just mainly help other people with their cooking now. I want lab-grown meat and fun new GMO foods to play with. I think I would have more fun again with new ingredients like those.
>>9187829
Start simple.
Perfect your cheese omelette technique. Obsess about that fucker like an autistic Japanese hikikomori.
Once you are 100% sure that you could make the perfect cheese omelette without breaking a sweat while under enemy fire, make one for others you know/love. Take their praise on board.
Then move on to scrambled eggs, poached eggs, custard, quiche, roast chicken and so on, keeping it simple but perfect at every step.
It's very common to burn out on the ridiculous culinary arms race that Americans seem to have where a dish needs 14 exotic ingredients and three different cooking techniques to be worthy of praise.
Go back to simplicity and perfection.
If certain things are so bad for you why would they taste so good???
Salt sugar fat .... All delicious while veg and grains taste no different than the dirt it grows out of... What causes this feel? You would think that your body would find ways to drive you towards healthy food. Not the opposite
>>9187804
your body drives you toward unhealthy (fatty, salty, sugary) foods because they were more uncommon for you ancestors to find or hunt. thats why it tastes so good and why it makes you so fat is because of how unlikely it would be to find such food your body stores it
>>9187804
Fat, sugar, salt are unhealthy in excess. We developed the fondness for these tastes when we were hunter gatherers because fat, sugar, and salt (extra condensed energy and electrolytes) were both very scarce and excellent at helping us survive.

???
So, I went and bought a costo membership today. Spend about 300 bucks on random shit.
They did have some nice looking italian sausage in the deli at the back, so picked up that and then decided to make spaghetti for supper. Ended up with this. Everything on the plate bought from Costco today. I think it looks decent enough.
Also, what do I do with like, a half gallon of vermouth. It was the only fortified wine they had.
>>9187781
Drink it
>>9189169
Or mix it with 7up or redbull if its white, coke if its red. Vermouth can be good on its own if its not too much on the bitter side
how do you tell the freshness of cooked meat
If it tastes and feels like shit it might not be fresh
>>9187738
Taste
American meat is frozen by law ... americans in general have zero idea what fresh meat taste like
