why are the most overrated meme dishes split between italian and japanese origins? This frightens and confuses the zoomer >dude it takes 10 years of training to become a sushi chef and even then you're still a novice
it's literally a slice of fish and a glob of rice Why do some people put onion peels in their stock? I'm talking about the papery outer skin. Onion is a root vegetable right? Doesn't that mean dirt, germs and bacteria? Onion peels in my home go inside the compost bin. If you disagree, you're an effeminate eater meatloaf is one of my favorite foods. does this make me a tasteless pleb? >be watermelon
>taste delicious
>be watermelon juice
>taste like shit
What gives? Is Buc-ees food worth the hype? >making my usual dinner rolls
>made the dough earlier today and so I left it to rise for much longer than usual
>it was also 29C today (84F), so it raised very quickly
>baked the bread
>it comes out tasting significantly less sweet than usual and a little bitter.
>later give it a smell
>can actually smell a hint of alcohol.
huh, didn't know that yeast is able to convert sugar to alcohol that quickly in bread dough. Thread for discussing coffee and coffee related topics.

happened twice this week, anyone else have this? people unironically pay 1 dollar per sushi? i can make about 15 of them from a 6 dollar piece of salmon Why do people get so fucking offended if you don't want to eat their food during a get-together? A "friend" is all mad that I told him not to count me in for food at for his 4th of July party because I'm on a diet. I'm also not drinking. He was insisting I at least let him make me something special. Honestly, now I might just not even attend because he's making such a scene.
It's not a dinner party either. I wouldn't go if it were. What the fuck is with this? Can any "cooks" here explain it? Let me guess, you need more. do u take any supplements?
i take a multivitamin (men's 50+ costs the same amount but has more vitamin in it).
fish oil
magnesium
the multivitamin is like 5 cents a day and even if i piss out most of it, i figure it'll keep me covered when my diet is bad. fish oil is because i don't eat fish. and magnesium because most people don't get enough magnesium. So simple, but so satisfying. What are your favorite SIMPLE fast food treats? Is he right about juicing giving you superpowers or is he schizo? Previous bread:

Are you going? Want to host one in your city? Then post itt every cu/ck/ needs a tabletop pressure cooker in their home. just made ribs and it was the easiest shit in the world. The Finns love salty licorice so much they have salty licorice-flavored gum, ice cream, cough drops, lollipops etc. It's unironically bizarro world over there. imagine buying mayo
any other things that are better, cheaper, and easy to make at home vs store bought? if you accidently eat a watermelon seed, you will grow a watermelon in your stomach and a vine will grow out of your nose. my cousin told me this. Post delicious meals and recipes to maximize both quantity and rancidness of flatulence
For me, nothing beats a pound of these bad boys You’ve got to be kidding me, these pizza roll makers are cheaping out. THERES NOTHING IN HERE!!! Asian desserts fucking suck lol, only the west has made good sweets We do steak a little different here in the UK Never really liked it, but I stumbled on this really unorthodox shit on youtube and want to give it a chance:
https://youtu.be/YM28BfpVdH8?si=rPah_iXZMNO1oVbJ&t=384
Opinions? I'm not really an experienced cook so I'd like to hear how you would make it / what you would change. Why doesn’t this site sell 4chan cookies?
Think of the possibilities.
What message would you want to see when you open up your very own 4chan cookie? chicken soup with kale onions celery garlic and steel-cut oats cooked in a broth of chicken better than bouillon apple cider vinegar and olive oil, God bless Lads, the wife is dragging me out to the Hamptons again for the 4th
I don't want to spend $8,000 on a cocktail
How fucked am I? Asian food sucks, PF changs and Panda Express are literally some of the only decent places to get Asian food because it isn’t roadkill prepared by some 50 year old illiterate Laotian woman like 95% of Asian restaurants i'm sorry for doubting you, crystal
i figured you were just some glorified red vinegar, but you're extremely flavorful
though the taste of vinegar is quite strong, the peppers are also just as strong, its a wonderful balance
you blow tabasco out of the water & are just as good as any mexican sauce
i may not use you in all my foods, but you'll always be in my cupboard Here's what Annie Wilkes made for Paul Sheldon in Misery: "scrambled eggs a la Wilkes", which appears to include peppers and onions, potatoes, and Spam. Would you eat? Surely your palette has matured enough for you to reject third world slop spices (pepper, turmeric, cinnamon, cardamom, chili, cumin, curry powder, nutmeg) and embrace real spices (dill, yarrow, thyme, juniper berry, caraway, parsley, basil, mustard etc.)? Now that mcwagebots got no tax on [t]ips they're are going to be demanding and at more locations.
> Oh I handed you your food that I touched for 14 seconds? 40% [t]ip. It's added by default.
>Oh I bagged your groceries? 70% mandatory [t]ips
I'm never eating out again. I don't care if I'm starving. Everything will be made at home from groceries I got at the self checkout.
Total fast food and restaurant death Only American food is good but NYC and Cali aren't American but we claim some things like Reubens, and dismiss others like NYC pizza. Further more, if the country/state/villa regularly serves things like tarantulas, centipedes, bats, rats, snakes etc it's actually less than garbage food culture, and dead bottom of the barrel.
Also rice is shit, only potatoes rule YEAHHHH MOTHERFU/ck/ERS ITS ALMOST TIME FOR THE BIG COOKOUT OF THE YEAR
What are you cookin?
Cookin for yourself? The family? The neighborhood?
Doin anything special?
I'll just be doing the usual burgers and brats with tin foil potatoes for my wife and inlaws. I'll be using this holland grill my coworker gave me a couple of days ago, she aint a looker, but she seems to be a nice grill. Either way, what's your plans for the 4th this year? What should I order from Marco's pizza? Is extra cheese good? what can I make with this haul? I threw up after eating seafood fried rice with a TON of black pepper in it. I can eat fried rice fine but anything with black pepper makes me queasy now >favorite restaurants
>go to dish
don't shit up the thread with 300 replies sperging about cheesesteaks. i know there are a lot of phillyfags here so ne recommendations would be great, but i'm aware most of the good food is in center city. Red Lobster bros we are so fucking back This was the best NA beverage on the market and they enshittified it just like everything else. What is the best American sandwich and why is it the philly cheesesteak? >go to Chili's
>menu doesn't have prices
>I have to ask the waitress the price of things before ordering them
Shant be going back. Applebee's for mees. What Are We Drinking Today? How do British people afford to go to pubs all the time? The best part is the fish skin I want to start a side hustle selling breakfast burritos and I want your input. They're one of my favorite foods and I found that all the places around me? "Burrito King"? Bland mushy dogshit. The portions are good, but the actual contents are fucking terrible and they cost $14. Frozen tator tots instead of actually cooking any potatoes, or the potatoes are boiled and unseasoned. Eggs are always overcooked.
I don't think I can produce anything gourmet, but I can make something decent for cheap and toast the bitch to boot. I want to sell them for $5 a pop, operating out of my home kitchen and slinging them from my car. I'm not looking to sell hundreds a day. Maybe like 50 a few times a week. I know McDonalds and Taco Bell sell similarly cheap burritos, but they're honestly terrible and I think I can provide a better product. What has been your worst experience at a restaurant dealing with service? Where was it why did the service suck so bad? Did the food make up for it? >Well, sir, on first sighting the Cookout, I naturally gave the order for a regular tray, Big Double Burger made Out West Style, a side of a chicken quesadilla and an order of hushpuppies, adding a chocolate chip mint shake as the beverage for an extra dollar; that's my style, sir Why don't more places do pan pizza? Look at what LCs had. i made a really good drink with coconut infused white balsamic vinegar and cranberry syrup How did they do it? They found a way to innovate both soda and beer at once! Is it true that Americans are so unhealthy because we fry our foods in the wrong fluids? What's the best type of fluid for frying with? I use butter a lot for pan frying but that doesn't work for deep frying. Do I use olive oil or avocado oil for that? I haven't branched out much beyond those and coconut oil.
ITT: post your homemade alcohol. Share recipes, advice, opinions, ect.
Picrel is mead. My recipe is pretty much just 3 pounds of honey for every gallon of water. Honey displaces a lot of volume so a 5 gallon container will hold around 3 gallons of water and ~9 pounds of honey (hence my recipe lol). This will yield around 10% abv mead. More honey equals higher alc.
Put in a carboy and add yeast, and airlock, and wait about a month, until the airlock stops bubbling.
As you can see from my picture, I am incredibly poor and stupid, therefore cannot afford high-end fermentation products such as Amazon tier airlocks. I improvised by drilling a 1/4 hole in a sparking wine cork and stuffing a length of quarter inch airline (stolen from work) into the cork, which is then stuffed into the mouth of the water jug, creating an air tight seal. The end of the line is submerged in water to keep contaminates from infiltrating the warm sugary water. Warm sugary water is a very suitable environment for a wide variety of bacteria, so a moderate amount of care is needed when cleaning the equipment. Once fermentation takes off though, the yeast is usually based and chad enough to overpower any foreign bacteria.
The yeast used is Red Star champagne yeast. The yellow packets. These were purchased from Amazon for around $1 per packet because no local stores stock them.
Now show me what you're up to >rapper worth hundreds of millions
>”first apartment out of school”-tier liquor selection
seagrams gin lmao Jeez who the fuck drinks these things?? It's like like a chocolate enema. I'm not even lactose intolerate but these shits destroyed my insides Most of the crops discovered through colonialism of the Americas were selectively bred by Europeans into the worthwhile and useful crops we know today. Should these crops be considered European in origin because they share so little in common with the early American ancestors? >dog won't stop barking
>give him a hushpuppy
>he stops barking
Thank you hushpuppy Do whiskey companies have a valid reason for releasing whiskeys under 100 proof (no) or are they just ripping off the consumer by doing so (yes)?
Why do high-rye bourbons taste so much better than other bourbons?
What is the optimal cork type for whiskey, and why is it a BIG WHITE CORK? What am I supposed to add to broccoli for it to not taste like shit? Struggled to finish even a cup of the stuff. Something about the concept of a seafood boil is deeply offensive to me. I like all the individual components by themselves but chopping up and boiling a varied assortment of vaguely related miscellaneous foods all together and serving it out of a literal trough feels weirdly passive aggressive and degrading. Like an edible middle finger. "Here's your slop, piggy. Eat up."
I mean don't get me wrong I'm still gonna eat it, I'm not above it, I'm just gonna be a little upset about it while I do. Very hateful dish. Very, very disrespectful. Very undignified. Brings the mood down instantly. I can't think of a more offensive culinary gesture than a seafood boil. Made popcorn a while ago. How do I clean this shit up? (Putting vinegar in it for an hour and then scrubbing the shit out of it with the scouring pad didn't work) This thread is for discussing teas, tisanes, and other herbal infusions.

Why the fuck are these things so celebrated when they are loud as shit? Any tips for cooking mostly eggs for breakfast service professionally in high volume?
The chef was complaining that my ticket times are too long, when in reality it's 2-3 minutes longer than usual, and it's my third day. Myself, the servers, and even the GM didn't think it was slow at all.
I stir omelettes, let the uncooked drip around the pan, repeat. Mise is all within arm's reach, same with cooking utensils and pans. Beyond this, and alternating between med-high to medium heat if I need to cook a waffle in the back or step away etc, I believe I'm decently quick already. What treats do you get from your grocery store's hot fresh Italian section?
Me, I can never resist pepperoni pinwheels. Mmm. Me Din Dins
Belly pork
Baby potatoes
Peas
Green beans
Garlic and herb sauce
Bosh >you must buy cast iron skillet
>you must season your it
>you will never ever ever wash it
who started this meme?
you can make any pan non stick by just sloshing it with oil on high heat The humble Pizza Napoletana. And I can get one from only a 30 minute drive away. Is it worth it? Which menu do you find most appealing? You know, sometimes there's nothing like noodles and dumplings from your local Fuzhou place. SeeKay doesn't drink grape juice? Anyone know why whenever I eat wing stop I wanna kill myself afterwards? Is something wrong with their food? Do you cook your spaghetti the black people way? did you know the Swiss make some of the best wines in the world? they just barely export any of it. Should I get it? I just want one workhorse, I'm using a cheap costco knife I got like 4 years ago, I don't do tons of work maybe 20 mins a day >pay $4 for half a coke can
>Pay $10 for a $1 potato
And restaurants still ask for $18% tip? If you buy drinks from a restaurant thats enough tip “Eat at an Applebees tonight. Get the hot sauce. Order the chicken well washed and well seasoned. Eat loudly. Don’t tip your server.”
- Anthony Bourdain Now that's Italian-American. Can someone please help me out? I tried using google but couldn't find an exact information about it. How much time would it take to achieve that on each side? who makes the toppest tier sub sandwich? Ham salad people are my kind of people it's a very hot day and you are very stressed and need to refresh yourself, but this is the only place in miles that sells something cold, what do you do? please recommend me some delicious retard proof dinners. very new to cooking. i made soup 2 days ago and it was okay, but today i'm not sure what to make. spaghetti or some other pasta comes to mind but i don't really like them. Let's normalize putting hidden minibars in the loo. Post that "food" for goycattle For me it's a nice hot bowl of hoppin John. In the late 1980's / early 90's my family traveled to Arizona to visit friends. I remember there was this chain of drive in style restaurants all over the place. We went to them and I remember being randomly approached by mexicans who were trying to sell us stolen merchandise from near by stores. For the life of me I can't remember the name of the fast food chain. I am pretty sure they had neon signage and polished aluminum / chrome as part of their retro Americana decor style. I live in Ireland and whenever I travel I obviously try the local food and drink, but I also have to find an Irish pub and try the Guinness. In Cologne at the moment and the pint isn't too bad.
I have a scoring system out of 10:
Taste of the pint: +1 to +5
Owned by Irish: +1
Irish bar staff: +1
Authentic paraphernalia: +1
Good craic: +2 https://www.dollartree.com/drinks/sport-energy-drinks
Pretty sure it's usually the case that Dollar Tree carries lesser desired/discontinued flavors and brands of energy drinks, they also buy them closer the expiration, may even not refrigerate them well. Even considering all these cons, do you think their energy drinks are worth it? Which flavors and brands do you like from Dollar Tree? Does anyone else have a babybel orb? No store sells raw peanuts Why are some WesternBros like this? >shredded cheese melts worse bro, because of the cellulose coating. Its wood pulp, gross!
Wrong wrong wrong.
Shredded cheese is good and I'm tired of pretending it's not. The only reason to shred your own cheese is that preshred costs more. I have far too many thai eggplants. After making a green curry with them I'm out of ideas. Could I make them into baba ghanoush or are they too seedy? I thought this was some kind of joke, but the replies are full of Americans saying they wish it wasn’t boiled in plastic but it’s too good to pass up. What the fuck This is my dinner. Say something nice about it. Is there really no better way to eat a dawg? Have there been any studies to see if Sous vide cooking puts plastic in your food? Ok, now how do i eat this shit? Post your pickups. Post your recipes. Just snagged these for $1.50 per. >*cooks broccoli perfectly in you're path* why are croissants so cheap, but so difficult to make from 0 (zero)? Am I a honoary American? Am I legible for a US citizenship? Nearly every dish is just a bunch of disparate ingredients mixed together like you're feeding a pig at a trough and covered in spices.
>"OH MY LAWDY IT HAS ALL MY FAVORITE BUGS I LIKE TO EAT OINK OINK OINK OINK"
Definition of slop meant for a pig to eat to turn it into real food. A real American breakfast. Spanish people have a dish called "morcilla" which is made from pigs blood, stale bread, sugar, cinnamon, anise seeds and pig fat. what are some good avocado toast recipes ITT: Food trends you hate.
For me, its packing ridiculous amounts of fiber into stuff.
This is reduced calorie bread. Its got 15 grams of fiber in one slice.
IN ONE SLICE.
WHY. Feel good meal
>64g plain flour

Served with two eggs fried in butter, fresh tomatoes with extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice and salt. Sushi 4 din-din ^-^
Spoiling myself tonigh :3 this shit is locked up at my local total wine, right next to $100+ bottles of VSOP cognacs that are wide open on shelves. why do certain kinds of people love the henny so much? this is my breakfast, lunch and dinner. I eat it with tears every time
say something about it Is making large reservations at a restaurant, then just not showing up totally unethical? bolinhos de chuva
even the name fucking rox can yall think of something to wrap around a sandwich so the insides dont fall out? Like a fruit rollup but obviously something that goes with normal sandwich stuff. a strip of some food that can seal the edges. I cant think of anything. my scrambled eggs keep falling out What’s the single best thing these guys sell? Not special occasions, I mean on a daily basis. im drinking tea right now Was BK ever the best fast food place? I keep hearing people say when it was good, was it better than McDonald’s and Wendy’s? Pacetta on top of scramble eggs with creamcheese. Along with a slice of a wholemeal bread. No butter on it Compared to other frozen pizzas of course. For some reason I’ve always thought the vegetables on frozen pizzas would turn out bad.
>inb4 just add your own
If I’m so lazy I’m doing frozen pizza I’m too lazy to chop vegetables. Plus it’s unlikely I’d have everything on hand anyway. The whole point of frozen pizza is convenience so it’d be stupid to make a trip to the store for bell peppers for a frozen pizza. Went to the park today and spotted this public grill. Given their reputation I checked it out to see how bad it was but was somewhat pleasantly surprised. Obviously a bit tarnished but the seperate adjustable height grilling surfaces is a nice feature that you rarely see on most grills in my experience. Well located also, right outside the indoor space you can rent out for events with good seating
Anyways, this is the only board that would even vaguely care about this topic, but has anyone else seen any public grills that seemed nicer that the usual trash-tier ones?
