post the most smug motherfucking food you can find
What's arrogant about fucking fish?
They're right there in the water, just grab one.
Some places they literally jump into your boat unprovoked.
Christ Alive these thrice damned flyovers need to go.

Lol did a salmon steal your fucking girl or something
>>9207327
The fish is a nice guy.
It's the cooked salmon that's a smug bastard. So easy to overcook and when you do, it tastes like a sock. Has a stanky flavor so it doesn't go well with anything.
This motherfucker has every chef's number and he knows it.
Why can I do with sweet taters to make them palatable?
>>9207188
Pretend you're African
fuckin dice them, drizzle in olive oil, season with, salt/pepper/italian blend, and bake.
add parmasean after if you're feeling frisky
Put some butter and salt on them
How does anyone unironically enjoy eating salmon? It's like chewing on a sock.
How can I cook this arrogant little shit so that it tastes good? What sauce should I use?
Buy $NAK you fucking snow monkey
>>9207164
Wait, you've chewed on a sock before?
i love salmon. wish it were cheaper so that i could make it more often.
the only time i've made it is this recipe here:

those were nice days when i lived with my brother and i could walk to the grocery every day, go to the butcher, and ask for fresh cut meats.
How do you like your ramen /ck/? I like to add a raw egg, slice of American cheese product, and a few spoonfuls of kimchi.
>>9206906
I like the beef ramen with soy sauce, Spinach, pieces of steak, and scallions. Pretty basic.
>>9206989
Scallions are green onions right? It's an east coast word?
>>9207014
Yeah, I live in Colorado and I've only heard them called scallions.
is there a bigger meme food on the planet than soft shell crab?
>crabs are tasty as fuck food
>normally have to spend several minutes taking the fucks apart for only a bit of meat
>but wait, a whole season exists where you can fry the fuckers whole (after some cleaning)
>Crispy and delicious with no work
So why are they bad? I get being butthurt about the $13 spider roll at every sushi place ever but eating them where they're caught is awesome.
>>9206650
>literal shell on them
am i supposed to eat it or spit it out? i don't like having a mouth full of kinda soft plastic
>>9206656
they've molted and there's barely a shell, frying makes it melt basically
Time for a new one, lads and ladettes.
How are you?
>>9205671
fine
Sobriety sucks. I'm smoking pot to cope, only 3 or 4 hits at night after everything has been taken care of. Still drink on the weekends though. I just need something to take the edge off the day. Practically a shut-in at this point. Just need that sweet numbness to take hold.
>start project moderation after a month off
>have some cheeky glasses of wine over the evening and feel nice and comfy and think I'm going to sleep like a baby
>can't sleep the entire night
>still awake 24 hours after my first glass yesterday
>mfw
What in the fuck. Alcohol is supposed to be a downer.
Hot or cold Hot Dogs? I prefer cold.
Also, what condiments and stuff to have your hit dog in are the best?
>>9204892

Four n twenty is pretty good mate but a pie from the local bakery is always better.

/Wine thread/
What are you enjoying right now?
Discuss new findings, favourite varietals, opinions and everything wine-related here.
Pic related is what I'm drinking right now. Pretty fucking good.
Can anyone recommend me a decent wine? They all seem to taste like shit to me.
>>9203529
What varietals have you tried?
Most of the people that hate wine start out with Cabernet Sauvignon which is more of an adquired taste for beginners.
I suggest Tempranillo or Malbec, they are great varietals to get acquainted with wine.
>>9203529
try a vinho verde or semi-sweet riesling (for german rieslings, look for ones labeled kabinett or spatlese).
This is what I am cooking right now
What happened to the leg?

I wouldn't trust the Uber driver not to steal some fries or spit on my burger and then chuckle to himself as he drives away.

Uber drivers are the most vetted professionals in the world.

Where I live they'll hire anyone
So, what's the worst thing you've seen somebody do at a restaurant? Preferably from someone behind the scenes, though obviously all stories are welcome. I've got two, I'll start you off with my first one...
>Working at a bowling alley in the kitchen, making decent money because of the tips
>One day the owner sees us throwing away half of a pizza from a party that left, he freaks out and tells us to hold on a minute
>The guy goes and finds a recipe for pizza bread pudding, and tells us to take the leftover pizzas from various parties, smash them together and bake them
>We very grudgingly do this, and send said pizza bread puddings out to multiple parties
And one more story...
>Working at a decently upscale establishment, I mostly do sautee station.
>One night we have a special for boiled lobster, we send out the whole lobster in the shell to tables
>When the plates come back our head chef tells us to save the lobster shells (the ones that the customers already touched and possibly drooled on) so we can make lobster bisque out of them
>When I complain because that sounds disgusting, the chef assures me that "we're going to boil it anyhow, it's fine"
I saw some SHIT at those two places man. Pic is of pizza bread pudding if anyone's curious.
>>9182403
both stories sound disgusting
one time I was working fryers and I was taking dishes to the dish room.
the grill guy didn't have any space for the prime rib, so it was kept on a rolling cart in the hall next to him with a heat lamp on it.
I see him slice the prime and grab it with tongs.
he's only got two step to get back to the grill and he drops the prime slice on the ground, then picks it up with his tongs and dips it in the au jus container and serves it.
worst thing I've done was when I worked at a ruby tuesday. someone orders the biggest steak we had well done 12 oz. sirloin I believe. the meat was real inconsistent, sometimes real hard when raw. it took twenty minutes to get this thing done and servers are asking for it. as i'm putting the plate up to the window, the plate catches on the open cooler lid and the steak falls behind the cooler and on the floor. I get down and reach way back for it. I took it to the hand washing sink and washed it off good and flipped it on the griddle a few times and sold it.
worst home cook thing I saw was, I went to thanksgiving at my buddies house. he was a head chef at p.f. changs at the time. going to cook a turkey in the deep fryer. he's inside manning the sides and I'm out watching the oil come up to temp. when I took the wrap off the turkey it looked a bit odd but I didn't look it over great. until I go to drop it in the oil. it was skinless! I go in the house sarcastically telling him I needed the skin and he points at some turkey stock he's making for the stuffing. I put the turkey in any way, it came out with like a 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick burntness all around, totally disgusting. I almost left after I dropped it in the oil. but I stuck around
>>9182403
My mother used to be a waitress. Plenty of weird and fucked up stories from there.
>Customer complains that his order is wrong
>Head chef storms in, starts shouting, and throws him out in front of the other customers
>New hire's joint ash falls into the deep fryer
>Owner won't let them clean it out until the end of the day
>Whole case of fresh salmon left out overnight
>Owner tells them to serve it anyway
>Cook tries to throw it away, is fired on the spot
>Chicken is routinely undercooked in order to save time
>Only fully cooked if the customer complains
>Has a vegan burger, but the veggie patty is actually just a hamburger patty with a bit of green shit
>Woman figures it out instantly, threatens to sue, gets physically removed by two cooks
There's more where that came from, if anyone's interested.

Unironically deserves to be shut down.
Hi, /ck/.
Currently making raspberry jam (or whatever it's called when you don't boil it), and I thought I'd use a tip I've heard for making it healthier by using honey collected from raspberry flowers rather than sugar.
It works wonderfully as far as taste goes, but I'm planning on freezing most of it. I just read that honey doesn't freeze, but I can't find any info for food that just has honey mixed in.
Will this be a problem?
>>9214140
>healthier
>>9214140
>making raspberry jam
>but I'm planning on freezing most of it.
nigger, what? do you know how preserves fucking work?
>>9214140
>Will this be a problem?
No. But it does raise some questions:
1) The whole point of "preserves" is that they keep without needing to be refrigerated. Why are you planning on freezing yours? That seems unnecessary.
2) You don't need to add sugar or honey. Just cook down the fruit and let the natural sugars concentrate.
Where can I buy Victoria Bitter (VB) as a lowly Americunt? Apparently this is the beer reserved for true patricians, and I'm no pleb... I must drink it.
Airport or a walkabout sports bar. It is one of the few lagers that I can imagine the taste of.
why not ring around some Aussie bars and ask if they have any?
You could try nicks.com.au
They don't seem to have it on their website but they could easily get it and they ship internationally.
