Trailer Park Boys is a silly show, but Randy's cheeseburger technique is solid and many could learn a thing or two from him. >>1246 Out of pastagrammar recipes I tried, only rolled and stuffed eggplant was not too good. Their way to do it so to fry up 1/4 inch slices of eggplant in olive oil on a pan. It's not a very good method, since eggplant will soak up all that oil and it will become heavy and greasy. Most recipes recommend baking eggplant in an oven with a light oil drizzle for a reason. Oven method is quicker too. Eggplant rolls were still edible, but a bit too greasy and bland for my liking. They really benefit from addition of tomato. Either sundried in the ricotta filling, or tomato sauce on top if you are going the most common route that includes finishing them off in the oven with mozarella on top.

Share what you just cooked up and talk about food. Debate snacks. Share recipes, if you'd like. But most importantly, for daily /ck/, talk about what you just made to eat. Here is an oven french fries recipe.

Homemade pizza bagels. Get some plain bagels, spread out some pasta sauce on them, top with shredded mozzarella, basil, and optionally sprinkle some parmesan or Italian spices on top. Probably the least fancy thing you can make with those ingredients (and I'm sure it'll make an Italian cry) but boy do they bring back memories.
>>1576 You cook them in the oven/toaster oven obviously, I forgot to mention. Microwaves are for pussies.
>What did you make? Homemade quiche >How did you make it? First I made a crust from scratch. After that was all done and prebaked, I made a mixture of several eggs, bell peppers, onions, and cheese inside of the crust. Then I baked it all for some time until it was solidified and browned a little at the top. I let it sit for a few minutes, then got to eating it. It tasted really good, what a great way to use eggs if you have a lot of them.

Starting with chicken and rice. Anon said there's no easier and cheaper way to make without sacrificing one or the other. Browning the chicken can't be skipped. Spices you can buy whole dried and then put in as fresh instead of buying small packets of it.

Buttered noodles. >Bring salted water to a boil in pot >Add a serving of egg noodles >Cook for ~10 mins >Drain >Add salt, pepper, 1tbsp butter >Mix over very low heat (or just in the warm pot) until butter is melted and evenly coats the noodles Optionally, you can add any kind of protein you'd like. Bacon, sausage, meatballs, chicken, etc. Goes well with sprinkled Parmesan, some parsley, garlic powder, or even a little bit of paprika.
>>1562 I do this with milk as well to make it more creamy as I boil it out, but it always makes me want to make a roux or something with flour.

Have you ever learned a recipe from a video game? Were you ever inspired to cook from playing vidya? There are numerous "vidya-inspired" cookbooks out there, have you ever tried any? I haven't but the pictures look good.

Also not really cooking related but when I was younger I did try mixing potions together in the bathroom or the kitchen by mixing all kinds of random shit like shampoo and olive oil and pine needles and stuff together, then adding some food dye so I could pretend they were mana or health potions. Good thing I never got into the cleaning cabinet as a kid.

Jewish cuisine and Biblically pious cooking JEWS 08/26/2020 (Wed) 01:30:32 No. 287 [Reply] [Last]
"THEY TRIED TO KILL US. THEY FAILED. LET'S EAT" I was invited here to share my cooking. I've been cooking Jewish foods lately, so I'm posting them first. Given 8chan's history, you all should be able to relate to the unofficial motto for Jewish feasts. I expect that I'll be doing most of the posting here, so feel free to ask me things. COOKED 1. Home-baked six-stranded challah. I stopped fucking with sourdough starter as soon as instant yeast was available again and darted straight for the king of breads: challah, or Ashkenazi Sabbath bread, named after the dough offering to be given to the Temple in Jerusalem. It's long been considered the best bread for French toast. Mine mostly follows Lan Lam's tangzhong-based recipe for Cook's Illustrated, adding two egg whites and removing 1/4 cup of water with seeds inside and outside, and as you can see, it's fucking excellent. I intend to try Yemenite breads if I can get my hands on the bakeware they use, but for now, I'm sticking with the best bread I know. 2. Cholent. I made this Ashkenazi-style Sabbath stew, vaguely thought to have originated with French Jews, for the first time on the eve of the Sabbath when some faggot shot people at a synagogue in Pittsburgh; his faggotry motivated me to dust off my family's Ashkenazi traditions. The round thing in the stew is retail stuffed derma or kishka, a bread-and-vegetable sausage that's the best part of the dish. Mine here is after Jamie Geller's with retail challah, short ribs, canned beans, and a shorter cooking time; if you follow her recipe, don't cut the cooking time when you're using dry kidney beans unless you want to asspain your guests. Lately I've been adding farro, lima beans, and sliced chuck to change things up. 3-11. Brisket, potato kugel, latkes, kasha varnishkes, ropa vieja, Yemenite chicken soup with matzo balls, zhug, hilbe, and hawayij. Brisket is one of the few recipes that I actually inherited from my parents; my long-term goal is to use my family's ingredients with a more bulletproof braising method (à la America's Test Kitchen) to make sure it always comes out well (theirs does not). If you want to try one of these before the others, try potato kugel first, it's a latke casserole; I garnish mine with home-grown chives. I blended black garlic into the homemade farfalle for the kasha for a guest and was told it's the best ever. Also, turns out that Cuba's national dish, ropa vieja, was borrowed from Sephardi Jews; my first attempt at cooking it (from Genie Miligrom's recipe) wasn't great, so next time I'll be using the one from the Columbia Restaurant in Florida. Of Joan Nathan's recipes, Yemenite chicken soup was good, zhug was so great that I'm surprised it isn't mainstream, hilbe was strange, and I'm going to put hawayij on my next steak. TO COOK 1. Crypto-Jewish "chuletas", which are a French toast-like concoction that superficially resembles pork chops, supposedly cooked to throw off Spanish Inquisitors. I have the recipe, but I haven't had morning company for breakfast fare during the pandemic. 2-3. Jachnun and kubaneh, the Yemenite Sabbath breads I mentioned above. No recipes or bakeware yet. 4. Italian Jewish style couscous. Edda Machlin's recipe for couscous broth (thurshi?) is so complicated that it has to be fucking delicious. 5. Kibbeh, introduced to me by Mark himself. I need the recipe. 6. Corned beef from scratch, to be sliced and served on the challah, or on a rye loaf baked with flour sent to me by another 8channer. 7. Edda Machlin's Tuscan-style cholent.

>>1560 I love artichokes but I've never tried them deep-fried like that. I hate deep-frying too, though. I wonder if I can bake them to attain similar browning.
(1.03 MB 1536x2048 carciofo alla giudia.jpg)

>>1561 You can probably cut it in a way to make it look even more like a pine cone. If and when I make these again, I intend to cut it to look a little more like a sunflower. Here's another one from Wikipedia that looks pretty different from my own. >>1563 I have no idea how roasting or air-frying would compare to deep frying here, but if you do attempt it, I'd like to see the result. If you finish it with a drizzle of olive oil, it could be pretty close to the real thing without spending $20+ on olive oil alone.
>>1565 Come to think of it I think you can eat pinecones, there's always stories of people getting lost in the woods and living off of pinecones and rain for a couple days. Anyway, that looks very crunchy and tasty, the only ways I've had artichokes are on a pizza or in a dip so I wonder how different the taste is compared to those? >air-fry If I can find cheap fresh artichokes I might give that a try.

The best thing to have for breakfast is beef and hash. You can't convince me otherwise
>>1550 >not coffee and cigarettes Pleb.
>"Breakfast is the most important meal of the day!" Where does this meme come from? Cereal companies?
>>1553 Not just from cereal companies, schooling as I recall did the same exact thing. I think breakfast overall is pretty shitty outside of beef and hash, bacon, and a few select brands of cereal

Dollar Store Cooking Anonymous 05/15/2024 (Wed) 18:51:09 No. 1515 [Reply]
Have any of you dared to shop at a dollar store for groceries, and if you have did you manage to cook anything good with what you found? I haven't been to dollar stores since like 2015 so it surprised me to find so many grocery items there, specifically Dollar Tree. They have a decent selection of snacks of course but also spices and condiments along with actual name brand food items. The only stuff I would trust in my stomach though would be dry goods like ramen or rice and beans. There are a few videos I've found of people living a week or so off of just dollar store food but personally I'm not as keen on eating steak or bacon for $1.25, as tempting as that sounds.
4 posts and 1 image omitted.
>>1547 Oh, and also I found some really decently sized packages of snacks like cheese balls and tortilla chips. So if you're going to waste any money on junk food, do it at the dollar store. Not on any of the single serving stuff like cheeze-its or candy though, that's actually a waste of money.
>>1547 Your sacrifice is appreciated. <(Cheap quality) Bagged & instant coffee This might be the scariest item on the list. Cheap coffee is the kind that'll tear a hole through your digestive tract and make everything that passes through a burning waterfall. Pasta, beans, sugar, flour, are the survivalist's staple foods (according to my mom) so it's nice to know they can still be found cheap.
>>1549 Yeah, I didn't buy any of the coffee. Considering how even name brand grocery store coffee is like 5 bucks at the cheapest, I don't want to know what they put in that mix to make a package half the usual size only $1.25.

recipe or brand suggestion for the perfect blueberry muffins? I absolutely adore blue berry muffins
4 posts and 1 image omitted.
>>1531 Really? My favorite part of a muffin is the crumbly, buttery top like on a cinnamon sugar one. That's why I like banana chocolate chip ones since they usually have walnuts and crumbles on the top. Blueberry ones are good too though, never seen a cherry muffin.
>>1532 I'm not really used to muffin tops being crumbly or buttery. I can only imagine it being similar to a crumble? Nuts are delicious though. My favorite cake might be Hitler's cake (walnuts and apples)
>>1533 Cinnamon sugar muffins are another flavor that I often have with crumbly tops, maybe check your local baker or grocery store to see if they have one like that.

>>1463 thamku for responding much love i will work hard yes but smart
>Can you cook? Yes, I'm competent at preparing most dishes (fish, steak, pasta, veggies, soups) and typically cook almost every day, though that can range from "seared honey-glazed salmon with oven roasted green beans and slivered almonds" to "scrambled eggs and bacon." Not so much at baking, unless it's something out of a box. Although I have made cookies from scratch a number of times, and tried making bread sticks from scratch once or twice. >How did you learn to cook? My parents let me help out with some cooking at a young age, mainly just putting stuff in the oven or helping prepare mixes and combining ingredients, and it's something I always enjoyed doing. As a teenager I started making more of my own meals, mostly simple stuff like pancakes and omelettes for breakfast or pasta for dinner. My mom was always concerned about getting us sick though so she always overcooked meat, and it wasn't until I could buy food and ingredients with my own money that I started practicing cooking steak that actually tasted good, or pan frying salmon and roasting chicken with butter, herbs, and carrots. Mainly I taught myself, or saw something that looked good and decided to look up a recipe or a video on how to make it. >tasty healthy meals A very easy way to get more healthy meals in your diet is making veggies in the oven. Liberal use of olive oil on anything green plus salt and pepper makes for delicious green beans, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, or even stuff like carrots and potatoes. Those can all be paired easily with pretty much anything else you can put on a plate, be it lasagna, meat, bread, pasta, or more veggies.

>>1499 I use vodka to make flavoured spirits (almonds, lemon, etc.) Works really well. I've never tried vanilla but I will now.
>>1521 I've wanted to try that for a while but I always expect it to take like shit. Maybe I've just had bad luck with store bought spirits.
>>1522 I thought the idea behind using vodka is that it's not very strongly flavoured. Maybe rhum would work better though, because rhum and vanilla pair really well.

>>1490 Quesabirria is delicious and you should eat it. They cook the beef in a slow cooker and then pack it into tortillas, with some cheese, pour the beef juices over them, and fry them on a griddle until the cheese is melty and crispy on the edges. Serve with the usual fixings, like onion and cilantro, and a cup of the reserved beef broth for dipping.
>>1514 Ah, so it's like a fried cheese and shredded beef taco with a beef dip. That does sound really good.

Having had a long history of IBS and the shits, I'm always really cautious about anything even close to expiring. The economy's been tough and you need to make the best of what you've got in the pantry/fridge but better safe than sorry for most stuff I figure.
>>1498 Same, I'm overly cautious, despite many printed dates being bullshit (at least here in yuroop, I don't know how it is elsewhere). Yogurts' and cheese dates are bullshit for instance, and much, much undervalued. Some cheesemakers actually picked up on that and started printing "trust your gut/taste/smell" on their products to encourage people not to throw out things that are a few days over the limit. Yet I keep looking up the dates also. I think it's close to OCD psychiatrically
