/ck/ - Food & Cooking★

No more ThinkPad (and Toughbook) threads, or /tech/ in general… I feel hollow. Like a part of my life has been taken away. I guess this is the end then.

This site was an amazing experience and I could write a entire essay about it, but i'm going to keep my final message short:

Thank you for all the knowledge and the hilarious, sad, sometimes even bizarre moments 8chan.

Kutgebruiker9000!Asko.7gwTk, former /ck/, /wdsc/ and /mtb/ BO out.

Please, if this board gets claimed: do not wipe out the old threads.

EDIT 2024: Yes, I am still around, reminiscing of days gone by. I nearly entirely quit using imageboards, but do miss 2014-2019 era 8chan. This thread is a excellent postmortem of this site: >>>/dir/1196

I would try local resturant supply store, most are open to public.

if they dont have it, i bet they can order it.

internet search will just turn up with useless garbage.

>>17144

I live in a small town in the middle of nowhere.. :( I basically have to get it from the internet.

I did the internet search using multiple search engines and they all came up with Temu tier crap that was chinesium wire plated with chromium.

>Hestan Nanobond

Soo titanium?

Heritage Steel makes 5 ply with titanium but it's a steel blended with Ti.

What's so good about paying 3x more for a "nanobond"..?

Spend 9 bucks and get a Victorinox paring knife and stop being limp wristed bitches. If you need perfectly sliced cheese go to the Deli and have them cut it for you (because you're obviously too limp wristed to do it yourself but too poor to afford a deli slicer).

I am to far inland, maybe in the fall. thinking north east coat of Burgerlandia. any recommendations.

>>17103

The east coast is massive.

Oysters are better when harvested from cold water--the colder the better. They are filter feeders so you want ones harvested where the water is clean. I wouldn't eat anywhere where they don't tell you where the Oysters are harvested from. The best Oyster places are always in the town with an oyster farm.

The only reason to ever deep fry an Oyster is because you don't live on the ocean.

>>17155

so north, maine?

>>17437

They are filter feeders and most of the east coast is a continuous block of cities. I wouldn't bat an eye at anything caught south of Portland Maine but there are tons of shallows and small towns up the coast of Maine.

If you love fresh seafood and aren't a city guy any city on the 1 north of Portland probably has banger sea food because that's prime oyster country…and lobster.

this is how a duck must be filleted

>>16184

Ducks are superior to chickens in every way--especially if you're raising them for eggs. Ducks will tend your garden for you without destroying your crops. They eat the weeds not the crops, the poop is better fertilizer, they destroy the slugs and other pests and they don't scratch when they feed like chickens do (which fucks up crops).

>>16183

>>16184

Duck meat >> chicken meat

>>16442

>>16257

Brining is key for poultry

>>17153

do ducks roost like chickens? how do they avoid getting eaten by foxes etc.

>>17438

Ducks do not root like chickens, which is why they are beneficial for farming/gardening. They are actually known for eating weeds but not the crops in most cases.

If you farm you should have a dog or two and train them to not kill the ducks from an early age. If you want to get fancy you can buy a donkey and they naturally don't fuck with ducks but curb stomp foxes, coyotes and most other predators because they are territorial.

He's right. You get minerals from food. The narrative that distilled water leaches minerals from your body has always been a myth.

Mineral water is a label put on cheaply filtered water sold to idiots. If you flush all the minerals out of your body it's because you're over hydrating and not eating properly not because their isn't salt and heavy metals in your drinking water.

Loooong thread. Haven’t poasted here on /ck, am. Pollard, but I’m trying to widen the eyes.

For those who travel a lot or don’t have the means to install a household RO/Filtration system, zero water is awesome. However, I noticed they recently were bought out by culligan, so I don’t know if the OG filters are, well OG. The TDS coming with the is breddy cool. The one thing so far about trump 2.0/RFK/PFcuck I admit, is the banning of fluorides in flourida.

>>17439

>zero water

I don't like the plastic container.

Many municipalities in Florida used sodium Fluoride which couldn't be filtered out by MOST filters. When I lived there I bought distilled.

100+ videos and only 162 (I'm #162) subscribers? This has to be a good channel. And it is. Lot's of indian and asian recipes. Intro is ebin too.

i don't even bother with the captions

That looks really tasty and the way it's folded is pretty cool. I think I'm gonna try this.

I recently found this guy that has chefs make cheap meals. It's fantastic for mining good, inexpensive meals that are good, healthy and easy on the budget.

hey there

>>17093

Thanks.

There are lots of things I miss, I used to like the cook-a-longs but they often got disrupted by hyper-critical numpties and the thread was quickly lost because of too many fast-food posters.

It's a lot slower here than I thought, I did try to post a picture but it won't do it, I think other boards are having trouble too.

Thanks for the comments on my chilli, most people see the flag and trot out the same old stuff

>Britain eats like it's still WW2

>Travelled the world for spices but….

etc.

>>17085 (OP)

I did too anon, i would take a pic but im lazy

Yes hello, I am still around. Despite me having said I'd quit imageboards I was still doing background moderation banning spammers. Never thought I'd see the day my board becomes active again, and perhaps also more active than it ever was 🥲

>>17091

>Takes an amazing protein source

>Surrounds it with deep fried slop and butter

…a fucking leaf.

>>17085 (OP)

now i'm hungry.

>>14915 (OP)

sounds good, to bad american cup a soup only has chicken noodle and creamy chicken.

some day us burgers will get bachelors.

>>14915 (OP)

As soon as I saw the thumbnail of Batchelors cup a soup, I knew it would be a Brit.

Something even cheaper and easier is a packet of flavoured cous-cous from ALDI.

Empty a tin of sardines in tomato sauce into a bowl, chop them up a bit, empty packet of cous cous and pour on boiling water. In a few minutes you have a nice snack and in total it costs less than a quid.

testing naaa

I like to make pulled chicken with very little spices. It can be used in several different "fast" meals like burritos, pulled chicken BBQ sandwiches chicken salad and enchiladas. I make big batch cold soak oatmeal for breakfast which also saves a ton of time and you can eat it several days.

Basically the best kind of quick prep is actually leftovers.

Start by binge watching Reviewbrah.

>>17038 (OP)

Because most retards don't read labels or know anything at all about diet.

>>17038 (OP)

umm, because our food laws dont allow generalizations?

>>17145

The UK isn't allowed to list high fructose corn syrup as sugar on labels. America imposes a quota on sugar production to force Americans to use HFC where Europe, not having quotas, has more access to sugars.

The US food laws also absolutely use generalizations--Natural Flavoring is one such example. Castoreum, an extract from the anal gland of a beaver, is often used as a raspberry flavor and is listed simply as "Natural Flavoring" on the packaging of things like ice cream, candy, tea and yoghurt.

There are also examples of synthetic or highly processed stabilizers being listed simply as "fiber" in the US market.

>>17097 (OP)

These are the sort of low effort threads that made 4/ck/ so bad.

>>17101

I mayomusted in your mom just now

>>17098

yeah but, at least there is life here.

I do NOT run the /ck/ board on 8chan.moe, just so that's clear.

That's all.

Gonna check this out. Thanks man.

>>17061 (OP)

>We have officially created a new board

Who is 'We'?

I have taken a look and it's complete pants.

Nah.
