>want to make guacamole

What?! They're $1 a piece here. I'll mail you some if you want. They should even be riped when they get to you.
I'm currently living in flyover land and even when avocados were completely out of season they were rarely more than $1 a piece.
Why would you even bother if they were that expensive? Just buy some pre-made grocery store guacamole instead; they probably used better tasting avocados anyway, and you can always doctor it up with other fresh ingredients without having to wait for your Brazilian avocados to fully ripen.

>have to wait a week for it to ripen
Why didn't you just buy ripe avocados?
Anyone on /ck/ had much luck making that which is the most delicious of the fried foods?
I want to try my hand at it today but I've never fried anything myself before. I was planning on buying a jar of Claussen chips because I like them the best

Really? Just fucking fry them. I know no real recipie but when I was doing em we just bought crinkle cut pickles and double battered them in chickem batter (the batter was something like flour, salt/msg, pepper, and caynne).

We had a chicken battering station so I battered, dunked in water, battered, shook excess, and...

You're so cool
So I notice in a lot of threads there happens to be Masshole posters. This seems be somewhat unique to us cu/ck/s, and this is my favorite board. So I was thinking....
Post your favorite Boston cuisine! Favorite recipes unique to your area, favorite restaurants, even chains that are unique to Boston and beyond. I'll start!
This is a quesodilla from Anna's, a Mexican fast food chain I see mentioned a lot here. They douse it in oil and fry it on a grill press. Artery clogged, but fucking bomb.

This is the Davis Square location. There's always some interesting mentally ill individual sitting on the pictured bench. Many times I've found myself eating here after getting tanked at the Sligo. Then I'll sit on this very bench, blackout drunk, waiting for the bus, my sweet chariot coming for to carry me home.

Anywhere in Back Bay I should check out?
they are so expensive, and weird. pigs sniff for them? like an animal specifically can find these things?
weird. but i am curious. what do they taste like?
>>7874036
Like a meatier, earthier mushroom. Good on the right dish.

black truffle is overrated as fuck..
the truffle game is so fucked that it's almost like the illegal drug trade. you have bulk black truffle from china being smuggled in through customs that cost 600/lb but taste like garbage (even though you can charge like 20-40% more for a dish if it's listed as having black truffle), while the GOOD shit such as the oregon black truffle costs $900+ a lb and actually has quite a bit of flavor.
the oregon varieties usually have this super heavy, almost...

they don't use pigs anymore... pigs eat to much from them, if you are not quick enough , and try to take them out of the mouth of a 300kg raging pig.. no thanks
they train dogs... a good truffle dog is worth thousands
you have to try fresh authentic perigord (black) or alba (white) during truffle season ( nov-jan) to really know what the "real stuff" is... canned truffles, China truffle ( aka summer truffle) and 99% of the truffle oils (is chemical synthetic ) on market are garbage
give me your worst /ck/

Wish I had a picture....
I made a bunch of kimchi last summer, probably about 2.5 gallons in a 3 gallon pickling crock (ceramic lid just sits on top of the ceramic crock, no seal)... So anyway it was going great after like 3 days fermenting, but being summer and being that my house has like no insulation and the A/C is shit ambient temps were in the 90s and it went downhill fast. Eventually I just stuck it in a corner and forgot about it because it got bugs in it, until about 2 months later I peered inside out...

Has anyone made a legit bowl of ramen with success? I was in Japan for 3 years and I'm craving it like mad. There are ramen shops near me in Toronto but it's crazy expensive, and I'd be better off trying to perfect my own.
Any tips, recipes, or information I could use?
Last night I made regular miso ramen and it turned out "okay", but nothing like what I'm used to in Japan. I know at most ramen restaurants they cook the broth for at least 12 hours. I wonder if simmering the soup stock all day will add to the flavor? I left mine simmering...

Unless you're making it for a group and your time is worthless you'll end up spending more trying to make it at home. But if you're ok with that seriouseats has a decent recipe
Everything you need for the soup you can get in the west, so that part is not a problem. The question is how legit you want to go with the noodles. Kansui usually can't be bought, but you can just make it with baking soda and water. It's still however a tedious process that gets tiring (at least for me), fast. Boiling cappelini in baking soda added water is a working replacement for hakata-style thin noodles, but it's harder to find easy hacks for the thicker kinds.

Try shitting in a cup and boiling it, youll have the same experience as making homemade ramen
>taco bell double decker supreme
How do I order this at a regular Mexican place? Did taco bell make up this 10/10 dish?
Can't imagine how good it would be at an actual restaurant with fresh ingredients and chefs who give a shit
It is only a hard taco put in a wheat tortilla with refried beans.
>hard tacos
you won't find them in any mexican joint, kiddo
>>7878213
most mexicans would think your joking and tell you to fuck off
instead of ordering your meme dish from an overpriced fast food shitehole, how about order something actually mexican from the menu?
Trust me its much better
I made cheese filled chicken, was a literal 10/10
Thoughts? What would your preferred side dish be, potatoes or rice?

That looks like something your girlfriend in college would make to "impress" you.

I used black pepper, swedish grillkrydda, and some dried thyme
The meat isn't brownish because I covered the plate with aluminum foil and made a few holes in it before putting it in the oven for 20 minutes at 235 degrees celcius

First 2 time frames are completely fuckin wrong.
Few things in this world are as amazing as a proper bowl of tonkotsu ramen with plenty of mayu. Remember, if your mouth doesn't get covered in a layer of fat it's not good enough
Fuck now I have to get some today. I wish that time I tried to make it myself didn't result in something that made me ill
