I once bought real parmesan
didn't use that shit in time and within a week it was moldy and gross
never again fampai fuck that overpriced shit
>>9337499
I've been toying with the idea of ordering it online, I have ordered perishable food online successfully before but it's been a long while and it's still strange and hard not to perceive as risky, if I could get like a quarter wheel at a time though I'd probably actually save money
>>9338416
This is my problem. Shit molds way too fast and I am never able to use it all in such a short amount of time.
Give it the ol' poka-poka

This week's Binging with Babish is the first time I've seen chef John referenced anywhere.
>>9336658
What is used as "fake" parmesan cheese?
I've never seen it,but then again I almost never buy it.
>>9338844
>>9338443
Parmesan doesn't expire easily, so you'd be pretty safe ordering it online.
>>9338844
It's parmesan-smelling fermented milk sludge cut with cellulose (made by refining wood pulps).
it's so expensive where I live tho
>>9336658
I do. Great thread broh
I like pic in the same way that I like taco bell.
Sure the real stuff is objectively better in just about every way, but I practically lived on that shit as a poor student and sometimes I get a weird nostalgic craving.

>this thread
How much does parmigiano reggiano cost in America? In my northern European country a 200g DOP block usually costs me about 3-4 euro. That's enough cheese to last me for a week, at least. Is it really that much more expensive in America?
>>9340657
These are actually the best instant potatoes I've ever had. No joke.
>>9340766
3 pounds go for around $30
>>9338630
I first heard of chef John through a YT gamer channel: robbaz.
He was do his cooking show"cooking with the kock".
>>9337657

>>9336658
I like him because I don't cook that often, I'm still learning and his recipes are simple and his videos are easy to follow.
>>9340766
3-5 dollars for a wedge.
I don't know how good it is though. I am new to cooking.
>>9340777
So basically the same price per kilo. Maybe a little bit more expensive in America. Can you only buy the big pieces? I can definitely understand why you wouldn't buy it if you only could purchase a gigantic block of the stuff.
>>9340766
Euro here
200g block costs 5€ where I live and I use like half a block for some dishes like alfredo
shits expensive
>>9338967
all cheese is fermented milk sludge though
DOP unpasteurized from Aldi 250g cost under 3£ today, wanted to make a carbonara but forgot to buy cream, peas and the other abominations the savages add to theirs - yes I know it should be pecorino, but i got the cheek bacon so fuck off.

I didn't think I could love the guy even more. That guy, with that voice, doing BDSM stuff. How is that not adorable?
>>9340766
>How much does parmigiano reggiano cost in America?
Texasfag here. Usually around $18 per pound for the genuine stuff. You can also get the rind only for about $5/lb (a fantastic value for pasta sauce).
Yes, it's expensive, but IMHO it's well worth it. It's so much more flavorful than the cheap shit that you don't need to use anywhere near as much of it.
>>9340638
>From rape

parmessanio oreginano
>>9340826
Lucky you, a wedge of parmesan is about 10$cad in Ottawa
>>9341557
How large a wedge? Without a weight the price is meaningless.
>>9336658
>cheapass fuck.
I use real parmesan BECAUSE I'm cheap.
I buy a wedge which I grate whenever I need some. Buying anything else is a rip off.
>>9340725
get you a man that knows what he wants in the bedroom and you got a man that knows what he wants in the kitchen
>>9340826
2,50€ for a full dish isn't bad.
>>9341599
200g seemed to be the average we were working with
>>9336658
I do, it's about $12/lb for the 24-month aged stuff, it lasts for many meals and definitely tastes better than the fake or Wisconsin stuff.
Has anyone else ever just eaten an entire 200g wedge?
Not something I'd do again but fuck me it was the first time I'd ever bought the stuff and I was not prepared for it to completely redefine my relationship with cheese. That crumbly texture makes it a lot easier to just go in on, as opposed to some of the waxier hard cheeses.
To this day I buy a separate block of cheddar for use in dishes and just eat parm in treat-sized chunks.
>>9340725
All I've ever seen is people mentioning he has the profile with absolutely no evidence and that one pic where some random tranny is labeled as john so I don't really believe it unless someone actually has some evidence to prove it.
>>9342090
And the issue is, this is the only 'evidence' of the whole thing
From left to right: Sara O'Donnel, Chef John and Jolene Sugarbaker
Not that I would mind, I have fetishes, John being in to BDSM would just make him more based but I just don't believe it unless someone actually has something to show for it
>>9342114
Whoops, this is the pic some faggot kept reposting
>>9336658
I only ever used real parmiggiano, daddy.
Will you love me now?
>>9340725
In Chef John's accent:
>I'm going to take this hot iron
>and tease the vagina
>but not too close
>Folks, I gotta tell ya, you really REALLY don't want to make contact
>but use your discretion; this is you...doing BDSM!
>You ARE the Dalai Lama, of your branded vagina!
>>9338959
this is not fake.
and i actually like it. if you're just boiling some boxed pasta and using some canned sauce, putting shaved parmaggiano-reggiano on it would be stupid.
>>9344020
It's literally what we're talking about when we say fake parmesan. It's bland, completely tasteless. There's no reason to throw it on or in anything.
>>9338973
>freezer
AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
So, you guys are telling me that products marketed as parmesan, not parmesan flavored cheese product aren't real? What's fake about them?
>>9344083
Aged for less time, pre-grated and caked in wood shavings and potato starch, so it loses any flavor it might have had at some point. Made with inferior ingredients. It has a very mild flavor at best, and tends to only give you the illusion of adding flavor to a food that is likely to completely overpower it. Unfortunately, tends to add an unwelcome powdery texture to things.
If you contrast it to a wedge of even low-quality domestic parm that you grate fresh before eating, you'll see exactly what I'm referring to. The difference is not subtle. The shavings have a pungent, sharp taste and smell, and remain soft and easily meld into the food without adding a bad texture.
>>9343386

This. You got to look in the fancy cheese section next to the havarti and the gorgonzola. Not the fridge section with the bologna and the blocks of cheddar.
>>9348346
It's literally just powdered heat. That's why it's good though, flavor neutral.
