opinions on micheladas?
>>7462429
I like them. I wouldn't be making them with that hot sauce though.
>>7462433
eh I think its a good hot sauce. But tabasco is good too.
>>7462429

I have 4lb of dry and have run out of ideas
>Inb4 chili or rice and beans
Surely there's a better use for them
/ck/ I'm going to be moving out the house and into an apartment with my friend in a few months. I need a list of food to make that doesn't cost a lot of money. What would you recommend?
>inb4 ramen noodles every night
Everything should be based on rice and beans and whatever cheap green leafy vegetables you can find (these vary by geography)
Beyond that you can add dairy, eggs, and even meat occasionally (no more than a few times a week). Canned sardines count as meat
Don't listen to the idiots who will tell you to buy $1 expired battery chicken meat and eat that daily, that is not only disgusting but also bad for the environment
You can get stuff like ham hocks from sustainably raised pigs for $5 each, and that is enough to flavor an entire pot of bean soup

Rice, beans, chicken, eggs, potatoes, pasta, canned tuna, cheese and whatever cuts of meat are on sale. Basic spices and seasoning, like soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, bay leaves, salt, pepper. For fruits, have apples and bananas laying around.
Get a big bag of rice, preferably 20lbs, it'll come out to nothing a pound.
Learn how to cook simple dishes, you'll save lots and eat halfway decent. Try to have a salad a day, something simple, don't buy shit tier lettuce like iceburg for a salad,...

Oh fudge, forgot to add, buy a damn pressure cooker, preferably the newer types that don't vent steam. Not only will whole meals be done in under 30 minutes, but you won't stink up or heat the house when cooking. A lot of foods can be cooked at once together in a pressure cooker, like rice, beans, veggies and chicken, real time saver, and with the newer types of cookers that I mentioned earlier that don't vent steam the flavor is unbeatable.
With a pressure cooker, you can make pulled pork once a month in no time and it won't take hours and it'll come out soft and tasty even using pork shoulder the cheapest cut.
>cook for X minutes for al dente
>it's already extremely tender at X minutes
You're boiling pasta and are disappointed in the directions?
I have no sympathy for people who get fucked up by recipes. I never follow recipes, but then again, I actually know how to cook. So I look at an ingredient list and temperatures, but time is something you should be able to figure out on your own.

how many italians does it take to climb the ladder
I'm trying to make nachos and I bought these to top them with. But they're soft as mush, is there anything i can do to give them some crunch?

You can try using fresh jalapenos you lazy waste of air
>>7462117
1. Throw those in the trash
2. Get pic related
>>7462117
Yes, there's an easy fix.
Throw them away and buy fresh jalapenos instead.
imagine if we lived in a world without pretzels or bread sticks in chex mix
i think the world would be a much better place
I like the bread sticks. They are a brief reprieve from the insane saltiness of everything else in chex mix.
>>7462060
but those salty chex pieces are the best part of the mix!
>>7462071
No, that would be the garlic rye chips.
So I live in the middle of nowhere, and I went to the market in philly while visiting. I brought back what is maeuntang roe, or that's what it was labeled, because my grandma claimed a guy she knew loved it, fried. I bought it, thinking I could get it but I don't think it'll hold up now looking at it closely. Anyone have any recipes for this? All I get is fish soup, and even those need the whole fish which I don't have.
>>7461909
>I could get it
i mean i thought i could fry it, but its falling apart a little. worst comes to worst im going to just attempt at frying it.
>>7461909
You shoulda just got a cheesesteak
>>7461926
>cheesesteak
>philly
nah, im better off here in joisey for that. those two rivals are hacks, they mince that meat up until its nothing and then they lather canned cheese. they need to get their asses kicked
but really, i do love philly.
Whenever I go on vacation I tend to buy a lot of souvenirs, in particular food souvenirs. I'm wondering if anyone else does this. Obviously food is sold as souvenirs everywhere (e.g. saltwater taffy), but I feel like I buy way more than most people.
I just got back from a 2 week stay in the South and came back with:
1.5 lbs candied and glazed pecans
2 boxes of moon pies (will be giving most of these away to friends who have never had them)
48 oz various local honeys
Favorite licorice that I can't find here
I think eating the food that's...

Moon Pies are sold everywhere, though.
That aside, I do enjoy and often bring back local food stuffs, just not factory processed junk food.
>>7461809
I do this when I visit family in Mexico, I bring back mostly cheeses and candies
>>7461809
I still got one of those big torkey legs from disney world
Hey /ck/ I'm making homemade peanut butter cooking and the package says to use vegetable oil but all I have is extra virgin olive oils. I'm not sure if this is okay to use, I don't want my peanut butter cookies to taste like extra virgin olive oils. This would be bad because people at work would think I'm not a good home baker and didn't use the right oils.
Help me /ck/ I don't want my coworkers to think I can't make good homemade food. There is this qt girl I am trying to impress with my cooking skills and she won't be impressed if she tastes extra virgin olive oils.
picture not related it is just some cool tomatoes
do you know what a grocery store is? They have oil there.
>>7461808
I work in one but I don't want to ride my bike 40 minutes there and then 40 minutes back just for vegetable oils. That's why I'm asking if I can sub these oils. If I can't then I'll pick some up after work tonight but not going to ride my bike there for this and then have to ride it back to work in a few hours when I work.
You don't need any oils to make peanut butter, anon! There's plenty of peanut oil within peanuts. Just put a good amount of roasted peanuts and a little salt into a food processor and blend it heavily until you get the desired consistency, scraping the insides down in between pulses to get everything uniform. Good luck <(^o^)>
Are Slim Jim's a type of sausage?
I would call them a meat stick.
>>7461775
mechancialy separated chicken - look it up
>>7461778
Aren't sausages just meat sticks?
beer salt. What's your favorite?
>>7461772
What the fuck hipster bullshit is this now
>>7461772
the fuck
animal hoses
>>7461617
What kind of sausage is that?
>>7461658
Given the filename and the color of the sausage I'm guessing it's spicy pork sausage containing green onions. Could likely be cajun in origin since both the red pepper and the green onions are typical of cajun food.
>>7461617
WHAT IS THIS SAUSAGE'S NAME? ALL SAUSAGES HAVE NAMES I KNOW 800 NAMES OF DIFFERENT SAUSAGES TELL ME THE NAME OF THIS ONE NOT THE BRAND THE NAME
>Tfw not American
>Tfw have to cross the ocean just to eat a 10/10 Chickafila sandwich

What's so hard about brining some chicken, deep-frying it and putting it in a shitty bun with some pickles?
>>7461506
I guess it's their spice
Chicken isn't even the best part. Those cookies and shakes tho mmmmmmm
Glass top stoves are shit
>drop something on it, it breaks
>unevenly heated pan breaks it
>can't see the boundary of the heating circle due to shitty aesthetics
>have to use a heat diffuser to use cast iron on it
Not to mention they are a bitch to keep clean. If something gets burnt on, forget about it.
>>7461339
I agree that they suck compared to gas, but the problems you list seem to barely exist at all.
>>Drop something on it
Why would you ever do that? Are you naturally clumsy or something?
>>Unevenly heated pan breaks it
I've cooked with plenty of shit pans on a glass top and it's never broken
>>can't see
Pick up the pan and look you moron

So, this weekend I will attempt to make a Wellington Steak. I already have the recepies and ingredients, but I am unsure of what to make to go with it.
The traditional thing would be mashed potatoes, but I had this idea to make it fancier: I would take a bunch of small potatoes, boil them with the skins along a few dried Funghi mushrooms and smash them with the skins for a rustic look and put a dash of lack pepper. Do yu guys think it is a good idea?
Sometimes I like to make twice baked potato.
You bake a big potato and hollow it out, then you take the extra potato and add it to some regular mashed potato then you put that in the potato skin.
Sometimes I add bacon or scallion. Then you bake them till the potato brown and melt cheddar cheese on them.
I have never heard of Beef Wellington referred to as Wellington Steak, but whatever.
The traditional accompaniment is indeed mashed potato and seasonal vegetables. You could indeed make crushed potatoes instead, as you suggest.
