Thanks. I guess I am pretty good then, better than average at the very least.

>Knife skills

I haven't cut myself in years, but I think that I am on the slower side when I need to produce slices or cubes that are more than 70% uniform.

>How well you do on a daunting recipe, no vid, on first try.

Guaranteed success if it involves techniques and ingredients I am familiar with. Otherwise it's two to five tries to get it 100% correct.

>cooking for a group

Does not happen too often. Most notable occasion was back in high school when we had a heritage day, when everyone was supposed to bring food from their culture. My table was the first one that was cleared.

Another one was my old job, where there was a tradition to bring doughnuts on your birthday. I decided to just deep-fry my own. They were gone quickly, people were asking me where I bought them, and refused to believe that I made them. Most of these people were used to Dunkin Donuts, so it was.

Other than that, If I bring something to gatherings there are never any leftovers, and sometimes there are a few people asking me about food.

>if your cooking gets you laid, or kills the mood

It certainly helped to make girls interested in me, but I ruined it every time with my obliviousness and autism.

Why no tomatoes?

Allergy

Something with overripe avocado so it's got the consistency of butter. Alternatively underripe avocado diced and fried like potatoes.

>>16937

substitute jello with agar agar and it's vegan, just has a different texture

I have 50lbs of wheat.

I have a hand mill but no way to bake bread the utilities go out.

>>16907

Just fry the dough on a pan then. You will have pita-style bread.

>>16914

Or dig a hole in the ground, make a fire in it and bake the bread in a dutch oven in the ground.

>>16894

Well shit - amazing what can happen over two weeks.

Danish authorities aren't doing anything that has disrupted the supply chain just yet - I think… but borders are closing left and right to non-essential travel.

shit's going to get mildly interesting

Chef J from foodwishes make decent pastry & bread how-to videos despite not being pastry chef himself. Do you want to learn more about cakes/sweet desserts or hearty breads?

This channel was recommended in another thread.

>>16893 (OP)

When I was 4 or 5 my mother got my brother and I to help her make some vanilla butter cookies out of the sesame street cookbook we had. My grandmother lived with us too and she cooked most days so we saw that and my father and his brother are both capable homecooks. I've also always enjoyed watching cooking shows on tv, and remember my grandmother saying that one of my uncles used to watch the cooking shows with her. So then in high school I took home economics for 2 years to cook and talk to girls and I had one really good old lady teacher in the second year there and I still use some of her tips and philosophy - she taught us how to use chickpeas like the Arabs do and because they are usually an inexpensive food.

I know a guy that said a nigger told him a little smear of grape jelly on fried chicken is really good. He said he tried it and it was bretty good, especially if you're full of fried chicken, but want to change it up so you can keep packing food in like a glutton. Never tried it myself. I'm plenty gluttonous as it is.

>>16307

Just wait until you start exploring the exciting world of flavor inside a bottle of Heinz 57.

Glad the jellyburgers worked out.

Cottage cheese and bacon bits.

got really sleep deprived once and made a mayo and strawberry sandwich. actually bretty good. its fun to play food god

We could probably have seen her(?) face redden without the pound of makeup.

The muscle is still alive, that's all.

>>16866

Is this the narrator of Binchou-tan? Sounds a lot like it.

It is possible that you either under-cook it or contaminate it after cooking. If you have issues even after you eat chicken cooked in restaurants, you likely have some sort of dietary intolerance or allergy to chicken or ingredients used in its preparations.

>what I can do about it

Do not eat chicken and go see a doctor. If you can take it, cook different chicken parts in different ways and with different ingredients, try a little bit, and narrow down to what exactly causes the issues.

>>16842 (OP)

What the other poster said.

Are you cooking it thoroughly enough? Is it getting contaminated after cooking? Is your kitchen clean? Have you thinned your paints?

No wait

But ya - try to map out your cooking process: What spices are you using, could it be an allergic reaction? if you suspect its some of your other ingredients, try cooking without some of them to see what happens?

I'd try because why the fuck not but I'm not expecting anything great.

It's probably similar to snails in that they can taste from awesome to disgusting depending on how they're prepared.

>>15869

>>15897

tastes like buggery

>>12288

As a kid I wanted to do that at some point but then as I grew older I realized that fast-food chains are a tool of globohomo and stopped eating them entirely.

>>16116

Stop going to Japanese McD, i think it's the only one on the world where the food looks like on photographs and tastes like rootless garbage available anywhere else.

Why do people like fast food to the point of feeling the need to review, defend, eat, get exited over, research and argue over it?

I just never cared about it but seeing so manny people devoted to it feels strange

>>16773

It's because many people make food they like and grew up with part of their identity. When you criticize overpriced, sub-par burgers or pizza that someone has eaten for years and loved, that person will tend to feel insulted and think that you not only call the food bad, but also imply that people who eat that have shit taste as they usually do.

It is not limited to fast food either. Telling mainland Japs that white rice is a mediocre starch and Okinawans live longer because they replace it with potatoes will start a shitstorm.

>I'd like a fish sandwich with cheese on the side

https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/best-banana-bread-recipe/

highly recommend

If you want a highly developed banana flavour, the bananas have to be just about rotten. Black skinned and oozing oily juice, just about bursting at the slightest touch… that's going to taste like bananas.

>>16636 (OP)

Little bit of vanilla can make almost anything taste better, as can other flavor extracts and acids. Same with mixing in a bit of other flours or powdered peanut butter. Some people like to add chocolate or cocoa powder into banana bread dough.

Adding diary like milk or yogurt can improve texture and make it more moist.

Recipe in >>16642 is more or less what I arrived at myself after some trial and error starting from Chiquita's old recipe. Only difference is less baking soda (3/4 of the listed amount) and a tablespoon of lemon juice.

If you are sensitive to baking soda flavor, you can experiment with cutting down on it or find a recipe using yeast instead.

>crust seemed a bit thick and hard

You might have baked it for a bit too long or it is oven/temp display issue on your or recipe creator's side. Ovens are not perfect, and there will always bee a bit of a temperature variation - especially in consumer grade products. Mess around with with temperature, pan placements, or get an oven thermometer/temperature probes.

>>16652

Pretty much. You can always 'ripen' them in the oven if you really need to. Some grocery stores sell overripe bananas at a discount, so that's also an option if you are lucky to have one like that nearby.

>>16636 (OP)

Replace baking soda with bakers yeast.

Personally, I like to use coconut butter (in conjunction with butter, use less of the later) , coconut sugar, vanilla, chocolat chips, and you can add a bit of dark rhum.

>>16573

The soy isn't bad as long as you are not allergic and don't eat too much, and as long as it's organic (the pesticides are very bad) but I would never use soybean oil in my food, or really any processed oils. I like coconut oil though, but almost never use it.

>>16572

>Non stick is fucking cancerous shit. Don't use them, get a cast iron

TRUE. Also Just skip the bullshit and go straight to BLACKSTRAP MOLASSES. the RICHEST DEEPEST MOST INTENSE FLAVORS, with a bit of nutritional content too!
