CHEEKY NANDO'S
I'm a ameriburger, so we don't have any actual Nando's close to where I live, but, I can buy their sauce at the store in bottles. I like both the medium and hot Nando's sauce, I use it on all kinds of stuff, not just chicken.

So, I have been designated as the official cook on a vacation that I'm going on with a huge group of people. Most of the people going range from age 20-24, and I'm also the oldest at 26. We're going to a vacation house in the mountains, but my problem is that I don't have any experience with high altitude cooking. We're going to be at around 8000 ft. That's a 7000 ft difference from where I live.
Any tips on that would be helpful.
Also, I'm up for suggestions on what to cook for such a diverse group of people. We're going to go out to eat a few times, but I'll be making breakfast everyday, and most lunches, and some dinners. HALP.

Porridge all day everyday. They'll learn to cook their food and stop being a bunch of non functional human beings.
Also porridge is delicious.

Ask everyone what they like, and write all the engredients together, from there it will be an easy job to determine what you can and cannot.
Also, just make fucking bolognai spaghetti, hamburger,soup, breaded cheese with rice for dinner.
For breakfeast pancake, bacon, eggs, sandwiches, omlette...
Point is that you got options unless your people are Vegan fags or have allergies/picky.

>high altitude cooking
Only matters if you are bakingl. If ood tastes bad its because you arent used to the alitude but you will adjust pretty quick.
If you are baking simply add a little more flour. Thats really all.
Made a big batch of Sunday gravy this past weekend. If you're unfamiliar, "gravy" is what many Italian-American families call meat tomato sauce. Traditionally cooked every Sunday, chances are if you grew up in New York or Jersey your mother or grandmother would be making a big pot of this each weekend.
Before we can make gravy we need to make some meatballs. Here I have the ingredients:
~3 pounds ground beef (chuck preferable)
~1 pound ground pork
Breadcrumbs soaked in milk (homemade or store-bought, if unseasoned then add some salt, pepper, dried herb)
Chopped onion
Chopped garlic
1 egg per pound of meat
Grated cheese (parmigiano reggiano is typical, though I used pecorino romano here as it's what I had on hand)
You'll notice the very large bowls of garlic and onion. I had other uses for these (coming up) so I chopped a lot to use later. Same with the cheese, as I want some for later and to have throughout the week.
Combine your meat with your eggs. Add onion and garlic to taste (a couple spoons, I like a good bit of garlic). Same for cheese, add some according to how much you like cheese. Combine. Add spoonfuls of the soaked crumbs until the mixture comes together. I will show you how it should look in the next picture.

Here's the end result of the mixture. You want something that will hold its shape. Not too dry, not too wet. It'll take a couple times to get it how you like, but cooking is mostly experimentation in my opinion, and seeing what you like.
>>
Dont do something gross
>>
Grab a walnut sized chunk of the meat and toss is between your hands until it's compacted a good bit. After a bit of practice you'll not even need to roll it. Using this method you keep the fat in the meat from melting onto your hand and instead will keep it in the meatball, where we want!
Also notice in the previous picture how there's lots of leftover soaked crumbs. I soaked too many, so I'll put them in a dish and figure out something to do with them later on in the week.
Also feel free to ask questions if you don't understand something.

Nothing gross here, my friend.

I think I've made a horrible mistake. I'm making a beef stew, and I believe I've used the wrong cut of meat.
I just bought some beef chunks in the shop and though it would work, because I couldn't find beef chuck. Now that my stew has been simmering for an hour or so I've checked the meat and it's ridiculously dry and tasteless.
Is there a way to fix this? Can I tenderize it somehow, or am I doomed?

keep cooking
>>
>>9216006
this. add brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce
beef stew should really be cooked in a crock pot on low for 6-8 hours
>>
>>9216006
Really? I guess i can sacrifice a nice texture of the carrots and such for the hope of getting the meat to be tender.
Low heat and slow as fuck or should I make sweat a bit more?

Nippon steel... folded over 1000 times

>folded over 1000 times
not really. If you fold something 10 times, 2^10 = 1024 layers, and that's what makes it the best steel ever forged, it has 1024 layers.
you could fold it one more time and get 2048 layers but it would be too thick for a knife blade then, but it would make a nice cleaver. once more for 4096 and you would have an axe.

European Damascus is superior.
Archaeologists and metallurgists have actually finally discovered the techniques to produce it.
Hel,l even the American pattern welded stuff is better than than Japanese steel now.
Anyone arguing otherwise is either a weeb or terminally dumb (the same thing I guess).

>Archaeologists and metallurgists have actually finally discovered the techniques to produce it.
How did some bumbling uneducated peasants manage to make it thousands of years ago when it took so much time and effort for scientists with state of the art equipment? Did they just accidentally come across it once through pure luck and then passed down the secret to their families?

How many of you here have ever tried making these?
Pork skins boiled/dried/fat removed then fried to puff up like popcorn. 96% protein
Just tried this out for the first time with my rib dry rub as a seasoning. Fucking best snack in the world.

I've never personally made them myself, but I buy chiccarones con carne at the nexican market down the street all the time. Good fucking stuff.

>>9215197
These are way better when you can get them fresh, like at a local fair or something. The ones you can buy off store shelves certainly are good but nowhere near as tasty.

no bacon/pancetta, no green peppers?
I would go for a boring tomato into mozzarella topped with shrooms, celery, olives and ham

Im not a great cook but i like to cook. I spend at least an hour or two in the kitchen every night. After a long day at work there is nothing better than pouring a drink, packing a bowl and making some bomb ass food while listening to music/podcasts/audiobooks. Then, when i have the liquor and weed munchies, i get to eat the fuck out of that shit.

Indeed, for me it's a good way to relax. I love to cook even when I fuck things up. It's gratifying and I get to eat something that I made by myself. Having a cold one, chopping, searing and boiling stuff feels good.

The payoff for me is giving it to people that enjoy the food. The process it straight heads down technique.
Cooking something correctly is satisfying but serving it to someone who loves it, to me, is pure bliss. Cook nice things and give them to people you love.

Not really desu. Wouldn't cook if I didn't have to.
