Anders Vendel, a famous chef, restaurant owner and TV star from Malmö, Sweden, was savagely beaten by three "Muslim" men because they thought he looked like "Mr. Trump", Sydsvenskan reports.

In a Facebook post that was later removed, Mr. Vendel – who is a well-known anti-Racist figure and a star of the TV show "The Struggle of the Chefs"– described the brutal assault that took place early Saturday morning in a late-night fast food restaurant in Malmö.

"I am in the emergency room as of a couple of hours ago awaiting X-rays. I was beaten up by three Muslim men between the ages of 25-35. They thought I bore a resemblance to Mr. Trump."

"Two of the men grabbed my arms from behind and the third one started punching me all over the face. I tried to defend myself with my legs. After receiving about 20 fists to my face, I fell down to the floor. All three then started kicking me as much as they could in my face and head. I now have a broken nose, bumps, a clogged eye, mouth, lips and jaw. Even a broken right thumb," he continued.

Matapa is a southeast African dish made from cassava leaves, coconuts, ground peanuts, shrimps, onions and more.. Does not look like much but the taste is rich and unique. Very comforting food, especially when served with rice.

I like mine with blueberries, bananas, cinnamon, coco, and a bit of nutmeg.

I tried putting protein powder in it recently and it wasn't very good, but may have just fucked it up.

I mix my protein powder with skim milk powder, and just throwing that powder mix in to the oats gave it a horrible taste and texture.

Today I mixed just the protein powder with a bit of cold water to try and dissolve it a bit before throwing it in. It turned out significantly better, but I'm still not impressed. I expect it would be better to throw it in after it finishes cooking. Protein powder doesn't like heat. I doubt that'll make enough of a difference, though.

I think I'll just stick to my fruit oatmeal and have my protein shake separately.

The answers were given to you already, I'd like to add that the proper words here are thermal conductivity. You can find info about thermal conductivity of all common materials on the kitchen from stone to copper that'll allow you to cook any food the way you need. However, thin aluminum pans are nice too.

So I got a small chunk of non-processed Monterey Jack as a snack item and accidentally forgot to refrigerate it after bringing it out. So it was essentially sitting in a plastic bag for a day in a warm room.

I realized my mistake in lament and opened up the bag to get a whiff of essentially old feet until I curiously tried a small piece to see if it was truly as bad as it smelled. To my astonishment, the flavor is actually 2x as strong and the consistency is like that of a firm brie and it even has an earthy rind (albeit small one).

Did I fuck up? This shit is surprisingly good.

For many thousands of years people have been eating cheese without keeping it in the refrigerator.

Refrigeration slows the spoiling process, but it is not the only method, and spoiling takes time.

Still, if I was shopping on Monday for cheese I intended to eat Sunday, I might leave it refrigerated until sometime Saturday, then let it warm up.

sorry i didn't take more pictures before this point, but i've been cooking up a lot of mexican food at home and thought y'all would like to share recipes. i have a pot of carnitas on the stove right now, should be done in a few hours.

1.5 lb pork shoulder, 1" cubes

1 onion, large dice

6 cloves of garlic, left whole

1 habanero, mince

1 jalapeno, small dice

1 serrano, small dice

1/2 c orange juice

juice of 1 lime

~2 c stock, i used a pork stock i made with smoked bones.

2 tsp dark chili powder

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp coriander

1/2 tsp dried thyme

salt and black pepper to taste.

in a thick pot on high heat, sear the pork cubes in batches and reserve. turn heat to medium and add your vegetables with some salt to sweat. return the pork to the pot and let the juices brown on the bottom of the pot. deglaze with juice and stock, add spices and return to a lazy simmer. i'm going to be cooking it unlidded to better control the temperature and moisture, but i could also slap a lid on and leave it askew. we'll see how it goes.

if it's salted, then i would cut it with some plain water. when i don't have homemade on hand i use cubes of chicken boullion because its compact, portioned, and lasts. it doesn't affect the quality of the dish that much, but be aware that the liquid will be reducing down a lot. like 80% a lot. also be advised that this came out perfect to my level of spiciness, but it can scorch the shit out of your butthole, as my girlfriend will confirm.

So err on the side of caution if you don't trust the stock's quality/satliness, got it.

Guys, I'm dying to know: Where do I get some good, fresh meat? Usually I'll go down to the grocery store and pick up whatever the freshest cut is, but what about you guys? Frozen shit is obviously out of the question, but am I missing something here? I'm getting tired of the same old thing.

At the same time, how do you cook some of the rarer meats you pick up? Pork chops and ground beef can only satisfy a man so many ways. And what the fuck is up with chicken? Why is it so hard to make some tasty chicken without adding all sorts of shit to it?

I guess this can just be a general meat thread or something, for all 5 of us who post here every month.

If your cast iron is hard to clean it's not seasonesmd right. It should literally just wipe clean. Wipe, rinse with hot water, dry, coat lightly with oil before storing.

Buy better chicken, dude. Some farmers markets and butchers, especially in bigger cities, will likely sell heritage breed chickens, which have VASTLY more flavor- most modern chicken breeds are selected for fast growth and large breast size rather than flavor.

Find yourself a good butcher or farmers market. Some things to look for/try:

>dry aged beef

If you've never tried it, it's worth it- head and shoulders better. ~40 days is ideal. Basically enzymes in the tissue break down protein strands, making the meat more tender and more flavorful.

>duck

The red meat of birds. Really deeply flavored and delicious. Whole ducks tend to be comparatively cheap. Break them down, cook the breasts and legs, roast the frames- use the bones for duck stock and keep the rendered duck fat for cooking.

>goose

I'd contend these are even better than duck, though way harder to find. Goose fat makes GOAT potatoes.

>elk

Probably really hard to find, although they are farmed in some places- but worth it. Incredible flavor, best eating mammals imo. Easy to overcook though, and get dry as fu k if you do.

>bison

Think 'beef plus' in flavor. Same issue as elk above- really lean, and so really prone to overcooking.

>heritage breed pork

Really worthwhile. Way more flavor, more marbling, often softer, tastier fat. Berkshire is probably easiest to find, but others (Duroc, spotted, mangalitsa etc) are better.

>less typical cuts

Some cuts of beef, pork etc are great but hard to find becaPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Check for CSAs in your area. You basically pay and get a certain amount of certain kind of cuts each month from a local ranch. The ones I've used in the past have been as good as possible, without being faggy organic. That is, they give sick cows medicine and use hay when droughts are making grass harder to come by. What kind of cuts you get depends on how much you pay, but for example $200 got me 30 lbs of meat, including 2 lbs of steak and some nice organs, with slabs of brisket and roasts. If you're in a spic-heavy area you may have a hard time getting stuff like the tongue or glands, so if you like to cook with those then you'll still have to shop, but it'll take care of most of your meat if you're willing to adapt.

Where do you live? Any UK town or city will have at least one good quality butcher around, well worth trying out every one in the local area and seeing which are good.

Cheap chicken is mostly water and largely tasteless, not really worth the effort of cooking.
