That should get you set for basic cooking.

>> so I don't start forming bad habits straight off?
Be careful with the internet. On the one hand you can learn a lot of great stuff from legit top-tier chefs and cooks: Gordon Ramsay, Jacques Pepin, Good Eats, etc. On the other hand, the internet is also filled with misinformation and means-well-but-is-actually-shitty advice/recipes. Use caution online.

I'd suggest getting a beginner oriented cookbook and sticking with that for a while. Pic related is fantastic. I actually hate the author, but this is honestly a fantastic beginner cookbook. I've bought many copies of it over the years to give as gifts.

>>9105155
Stainless steel saute pan and sauce pan + a Dutch oven.

That should basically be all you need to get going and try out recipes that are simple and nutritious.

Congrats on the gas stove, I'm almost jealous.

Sweet pic bro.

Focaccia for sure. Might be too glutinous for pizza unless you're going for over NY level crispness (burbs of Chicago thincrust, cracker crunch).

what's in the dough? focaccia is probably the way to go!

What bothers me about this lil buco thing, is that it's still shit food. I get making nice simple food children like. But why not turn this hot dog into a sausage?

the only good meat pie is not a meat pie

Perfect meat pie

Usually you're adding a pinch at several different stages, so yes, it does make a difference. You will also hold more sea salt in a pinch than table salt, so if you're using table salt, that might be why a pinch seems pointless to you. Try sautéing a pan of mushrooms and onions, with or without a pinch of salt i.e. as much sea salt as you can fit between your thumb and first two fingers. If you really can't taste the difference then I don't know what to say about your sense of taste.

A pinch of salt makes a dish look more complicated?

>>Doing recipe
>thinking you need more than a pinch of salt to do what salt is supposed to do
>thinking a fistful of salt will do anything but make the dish salty

Adding salt enhances the flavors already present in the food, and it doesn't take much to do this. A pinch is all you need.
If your food can be described as "salty", you've added too much salt.

You're new to cooking, I get that. But if you're receiving directions on how to complete a task, you shouldn't complain if you're not familiar with the basics.
Follow through with the recipe and taste whatever you're making before it's served. If it needs more salt, add it then and not before.

>the only one I have
Do you mean like you've had a single stick of cinnamon just chilling since 2003? Maybe break it up and smell it. If it doesn't smell like cinnamon that would probably be an issue. I feel like it would either be nasty or just not taste of anything at this point, but it probably won't be that good in food anymore. It's just cinnamon, just don't use it if it's bad. It's something to flavor your food. I don't really consider cinnamon a food.

>>9107583
I meant cinnamon powder, my bad. It smells like cinnamon but idk.

it probably won't have much flavor, but it won't make you sick

Youre in for a rough trip among normies. My gfs faggot stepdad went all mental on me because I dont believe that planes fumigate us at 12 km height and that garlic its the absolute panacea. Also hes a fucking idiot who has allergies to candida and another ambient flora so he gets random skin issues but since he cant grasp that fucking simple concept, he just takes the last thing he ate and says he is allergic. Of course the faggot its "allergic" to half thw food in the codex alimentarius.

What a fucking self centered asshole. Him and all the ego tripping idiots who think that the two grasps they got about life are the definitive way things work. He even said that no doctor has fucking idea. Holy shit how I hate this manlet. And he will NEVER learn.

>Organic is a meme governed by shills of big organic chemical.

What the fuck?

>>9107514
The manufacturers of alternative farming chemicals pay some shills to declare their inferior products a popular buzzword.

>>9107435

Where's Long John's?

she's obviously trolling with McDonald's on top but other than that it seems pretty decent. in-n-out, shake shack, and chick-fil-a are the best.

>>9107435
That fag just prefers burgers to pizza, what a shit tier biased (for all the wrong reasons) list

>>9107354

that fee goes towards reimbursing their drivers for fuel.

>>9107116
The drivers got reimbursed for fuel beforehand too. This is mandated by corporate and is completely separate from delivery fee rises, which are almost never coincidental or proportional with mileage rises. (When I delivered for example, we went from 25 cents a mile/0 delivery fee with gas at $2, to 25c/50c fee with gas at $3, to 30c/$2 fee with gas at $4, and then gas prices dropped back to $2 so we got busted back down to 25c but the delivery fee still stayed at $2.)

Delivery fees are just the (((store owners))) finding new and innovative ways to make you pay more while stealing from their employees, the same as the in-store tip jars which are kept by the managers.

>>9107131
It's almost like they are trying to run a business.

>Mustard: The Old Mustard Way
Its still fucking mustard you shitbag

>>9106896
My point was the ancient Whites were making mustard before mayonnaise was even a concept. The meme is erroneous.

>>9106889
Fuck mustard.

Kiwi and plums are my favorite fruit. Watermelon is very good too though.

Green apples. but they hurt my teeth now so maybe watermelon.

>>9106560
King of summertime fruits imo. Peaches get an honorable mention.
