I decided to make two gallons of hard cider.
about how much yeast should I use and how long to leave it ferment for an alcohol content of 5-6%?
>>7762397
Heat some cider to about 100F. Put a small amount of yeast in said cider. Let it sit for half an hour. Pour the mixture into the rest of the cider. Insert the airlock.
Yeast is a living thing. It grows.
buy a pack of Champagne yeast at a brew supply
half the pack? should do

Based on the outfits and the manner of execution, this is more likely to be people captured by Daesh.
What in the heavens is this? Ive seen it a couple times but never could identify its name, anybody got an idea? Where can I find them also?
It's a type of cucumber. Forgot what it's called. Just tastes like a regular-ass cuke, though. Nothing special.
>>7762385
damn, they looked like those perfect yoshi story style melons.
>>7762389
I remembered the name:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cucamelon
Supposedly, it's sour, but as I had it dressed with a vinaigrette, I guess I didn't notice its tang. Just tasted like cuke to me.
Holy shit this is 3 threads in a row. Help me /ck/. I'd like to give my girlfriend some white chocolate truffles. Does anyone here do shit like that? I made a ganache once before (Made chocolate ganache tarts, it was gr8), but I saw this http://www.pbs.org/food/fresh-tastes/white-chocolate-truffles/ and it mentions no chocolate stabilizers. Does anyone have a better recipe or something? Thanks.
>>7762322
Just get some regular truffles and jizz on them. Wa la!
>>7762322
Why not just put some gelatin in the ganache if you want them to hold shape while warm?
>>7762329
Ah yes, wa la!
Is it normal to feel nauseous after eating eggs? I like how they taste, it's just I always feel sick for like 30-60 minutes after eating them.
If any food makes you nauseous, something is probably wrong
>>7762048
Man eggs are grose. The only way to get em down is by hard boiling them and skipping the yoke
>>7762048
Well, stop eating eggs then.
Is ordering a burger at a place that is obviously not a burger joint degenerate? For instance going to a Mexican restaurant and ordering off the gringos menu or going to a fancy restaurant that has a shitty burger on it just to cater to picky kids and stupid fat fucks with no class.
If you want to eat a burger, eat a burger
If they gave a fuck, it wouldn't be on the menu.

I don't get this anon.
Why go to a Mexican restaurant to eat a burger? Or a fancy restaurant?
When I go to a Korean restaurant I don't go there to eat a burger, I go there to eat Korean food.
It's just like people going to Mickey D or another fast food chain and ordering a salad because muh health before...
Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
Post your favorite cuisines and some example dishes that you like. Unfortunately I can't list these cuisines in an order because they're all great and what I'm up for changes from time to time.
I'm gonna spread out my cuisines for free bumps.
>Italian
Typically pizza and pasta, but also bruschettas, caprese salad, prosciutto. Favorite pasta would be spaghetti bolognese while any pizza with lots of anchovies I would love.
>Indian
I've only recently learned to like Indian dishes. Naan bread is great and there are so many great curries, some that I've tried were mango based, others fishes based. They do chicken pretty well. Samosas are nice too.
>American
Burger
Anything is a pancake if you a brave enough
>>7761692
i agree. okonomiyaki changed my views on what a pancake can be
>>7761692
Is that some pan' style 'za?
I fucked up the last one but still managed to cook it through
Ask a guy who works as a cook at Big Apple Pizza anything

Which place makes the best 'Go 'Za?

So I found some videos of this guy who went on holiday to Japan by himself. They're nothing too exciting, mostly just him sightseeing and eating and talking to himself, but I found them very comfy to watch. Just thought I'd share them.
This 1 is of him having dinner at a ryokan and there's a very kawaii waitress serving him.
What would you say to her if you were him?
At like 1:40... does she really say chicken dick?
comfy, op
I would say "you look very Korean, get out of Japan"

Have we reached peak-hipster in the snacking world?
Organic chickpea puffs. To be honest they were pretty tasty.
I know cold press juice is a meme but it tastes way nicer than regular smoothies. Is it actually better for you in any way?

How the fuck do I make this shit?
>This was my second attempt
>i used 1 cup of vegetable oil
>1 cup of flour
>stir at a good pace for about 10 minutes
>see that it's lumpy
How the fuck are you supposed to do this? I didn't stop stirring once, yet it still ended up like this.
I'd try with butter instead of oil
>>7761049
add more oil
plus what do you need that much roux for
Heat down, more oil. I've literally never messed up a roux, and it's one of the first things I tried. What are you even making with that amount?
What kind of OJ do you like /ck/? Do you like pulp?
Pulp is god tier
Light pulp is pretty good desu
My uncle gives me oranges straight off his trees. Last of the season in May.
I'm tired as fuck, hungry and low on money. I just want to make me some quick mac'n'cheese for dinner. I always got my sauce way too clumpy, is that because of cheese I used - Gouda (cheddar is expensive as fuck where I live), or by just not doing the sauce right?
Give me your foolproof recipe for this.
damn
i don't know op but i hope you enjoy your mac and cheese, it is a great food
>>7761031
Appreciated.
I have:
-pasta (linguine)
-decent parmesan
-eggs
-cream
-butter
-oil
-average ham
-mushrooms
Tell me how to make a nice Alfredo, my sister makes it so well, but it's like 5am over in Gaynada.
This board hates Alfredo, they're a bunch of tomato whores
>>7760908
Boil your pasta
Saute the mushrooms with a few tablespoons of butter and oil
Add ham once the mushrooms are mostly cooked and let slightly brown
Add enough flour to the fat so that the texture is similar to wet sand
Now take cold cream and whisk it into the mixture
Bring to boil and lower heat until it is as thick as you want
Add some parmesean/salt/pepper TT
Mix in pasta
There ya go. Prob sprinkle extra parmesean on top
If you don't have flour, go buy some you need it
