Hey guys. My beef is still good, right? Best before July 9
Yes now fuck off and eat it you ninny cunt
Don't be jealous
And thank you
Go by smell and texture, it's the more reliable metric. Rotten meat smells BAD, or is very slimy and generally looks different from fresh raw meat. I don't know what cut that is, so I may be wrong, but I wouldn't eat that because of how brown it is.
Anyway, dates are just estimations, and any food product could rot much before or after its date.
I don't know how many of you fellow autists like to have one of your meals in bar form, but I thought this would be a good place to talk about it. What brands taste best? Which ones aren't pieces of shit? Maybe one of you crunchy vegan faggots make your own meal bar? Share it all here
Personally, a quick on-the-go breakfast for me is one Epic Bar (usually the Bison Cranberry or Wild Boar Bacon) and a Larabar (Pecan Pie or Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip or Apple Pie), eaten by alternating bites. Ya get your sweet, your meat, they're fatty enough to actually...

I usually just drink at home, and when I get hungry I'll drunkenly throw a sandwich or something together.

use salt and pepper

Here is a thread to share the best-tasting recipes you know. I'll start by posting some sortof-OC. I made the pierogies from the poland thread a few weeks ago.
Pic 1: Found some moldy sour cream in the back of the fridge. Don't worry, I bought a new container the day I made the pierogies.
>>7850924
Pic 2: Here's the finished pierogies. I froze them on a baking sheet so that they wouldn't stick together as they froze.
Here's the recipe for them, copypasta'd from a thread a few weeks ago.
500g flour
330 ml water
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 tablespoon oil
Mix the flour with salt. Make an indent in it, pour in the water and yolk. Mix it with a fork till it all comes together, then start working the dough. Do it for about 2-3 minutes. Then pour the oil into your palm and work the dough for another 1-2 minutes. It should be smooth. Leave it for at least 10-15 minutes, cover with a cloth.
Stuffing:
1kg of potatoes
250g quark, full fat
2 onions
Salt, black pepper, sweet red pepper (the spice)
Boil potatoes till they're soft, mash them while they're still hot. Wait till they get cold, mix in the quark and onions. You should dice the onions and fry them for a bit on a pan with a bit of oil. Then add about 1 tsp of the peppers. And salt to taste. It should be quite strong in taste.
>>7850928
Oh yeah one more thing to explain the sour cream: I was too far from the local Russian grocery so I couldn't buy quark. So I supped 9 parts ricotta to 1 part sour cream, as a Google search result suggested.

My mom cooks roast in the crockpot, and then makes noodles with the broth. There are always leftovers, and after being refrigerated the broth always gels and really complicates reheating.
Is there a way around all that, in the reheating? or something to add to the broth that won't change the flavor or the texture notably?

Hi /ck/ I'm still at college and no job (government gives me money to study), so I have like 20 hours a week I could dedicate to any hobby. I want to not only improve my cooking skills but also learn the theory behind cooking and even history. I have an entire library at college dedicated to food engineering and the following books pirated:
>ratio by ruhlman
>professional baking by gisslen
>le guide culinaire by escoffier
>old cookery by various...

cooking can be an expensive hobby.
it's important to learn the basics (aka what you can afford) but it's not going to be that entertaining.
unless you eat rice and beans the rest of the week just to afford ingredients that you see at restaurants/tv.
>>7850664
Theoretical approach isn't easy. It takes time, right? It's nice to see someone else who is willing to eat meat and vegetables, interested in beverages, and food and beverage history. Totally awesome.
Accept that there are so many fucking foods and beverages in this world - like, beyond count. Accept that you will make mistakes. You don't have to like everything. Be accepting. Some people eat bird fetuses in boiled eggs - that's cool. Check out roadkill cuisine. I recently found out fermented milk exists. Check out some food and wine magazines, check out online liquor websites and bars of the month, etc.
Honestly, you seem like a rational thinker OP, albeit a faggot. I recommend familiarizing yourself with what diseases can be caused by what foods commonly eaten - lethal and poisonous foods, etc. Survival foods would be a cool topic to know, like plants and berries safe to digest. Or you could become a medieval healer, and treat poisoning with foods and beverages. Also learn how to give the Heimlich maneuver and learn what a tracheotomy is.
Also, tell me where you get these torrents... I want more books of my own as well.
You need Joy of Cooking, it's not a meme. It's like an 80 year old, 1000+ page manual on everything having to do with anything you can eat or drink.
>Just try to enjoy what you're doing. Learn from experience.
>>7850664
Understand how the digestive system works. Learn how taste buds work. Humans eat and drink for survival and pleasure only, no other reasons.
Of course you need to understand what essential vitamins and minerals the human body needs. It would help to know how long the human body can go without water and/or food, and why that is.
Learn what nutrition facts are and what they mean. What are carbohydrates and sugars, (saturated) fats, protein and sodium and how does the human body process these things?
Can you...

I've got about 8lbs of diced beef in my freezer and I want it out so I can put other shit in there.
I'm bored af of making curries, stews and casseroles. What else can I do with it?
Could I slow cook it and somehow turn it into shredded beef for sandwiches? Could I slice it thin and make tiny bits of jerky? There is very little fat on this meat Btw.
Please share ideas /ck/
Make a nice pastry pie with tomato sauce, beef, onion filling.
Dust in spices, salt and tenderiser powder. I use a mix of spices that you might find a bit unorthodox. It includes peppercorn, caraway, cayenne, marjoram, nutmeg, good quality turmeric, rose, thyme, ajwain, cumin and ginger, all powdered and the spices (excluding nutmeg) all toasted lightly before hand.
Add something slightly sour to just wet it, like whey, then store in a zip bag with as much air squeezed out of it as you can manage.
After several hours, skewer and cook the meat. You can do this in a pan, under the grill/broiler or outside over coals/on the grill.
Eat...

This is probably the best beer from the big breweries that you can buy.Full taste with high alcohol content and not expensive.I like to drink it with some blue cheese.
Nigga I bought that exact beer three hours ago. I thought I already had it in my tasting notes but was surprised to find I actually didn't so I had to pick it up. I'm going to have it side by side with Weihenstephaner Korbinian later and compare them.
>>7850414
My opinion.
My favorite is Yuengling summer wheat. 6 bucks for a six pack and it's pretty decent beer.
At a nearby convenience store I used to get a 15 pack of pic related every week. The clerk was accidentally selling it for 10 dollars. Went on for half a year before he realized his fuck up. I miss that beer.
Artificial Banana and Watermelon taste nothing like the real things, and Blue Raspberry isn't even a real fruit. How were we conditioned to accept these as actual flavors?
Grape medicine never tasted like anything like grape, so it was just natural to accept artificial flavors that actually tasted good.
I knew since preschool that banana candy/slushies tasted nothing like real banana, but it was still always my favorite flavor.
In Japan shaved ice a popular summer treat. And when buyng that you get to choose a syrup with a specific flavor, be it "strawberry", "lemon", "melon" or anything else. What most people do not realize even at adult age is that all syrups are essentially the same flavor, only colored differently.
So what the point is here, is that most people are willing to accept something taste like something else, as long as some sensory information (color) and the correct mental preparation exist.
I've had a few japanese grape flavored candies that actually tasted like grapes. They were pretty good.
Looked like little cardboard boxes with tiny gumball shaped chews in them.
No thread up? Yesterday I ordered pic related because of OP in the last thread, and as a Euro I have to say I was pleasantly surprised.
To me it tasted very similar to a Belgian double, pleasingly rich flavour without becoming too overpowering
What are you drinking right now /ck/?
>>7849212
i was drinking miller genuine draft
its a nice beer if you ask me not a craft beer sure but something to cleanse the pallet if you just want a beer to session drink and don't want some douple ipa or some shit
>>7849212
I was drinking Deschutes Black Butte Porter because it's had to find a dark beer that isn't really expensive
Fuck the IPA craze. Why does every brewery need three IPAs?
>>7849212
Never really liked Rogue, especially in a beer climate such as we have in Europe with much better Dubbel beers.
I really enjoy most beers by Van Moll, great Dutch craft beers. IJ, De Leckere and Maximus are also good.
At wholefoods today I came across this tool for removing tough pan marks.
Do you think it's good? And will it damage my cookware?
Might as well just use some steel wool.
Looks like an ordinary abrasive sponge.
I wouldn't use it on anything seasoned or non-stick. Should be fine on stainless steel or aluminum (or enameled cast iron).
>>7849068
Is steel wool good for domestic use though? I can imagine it scratching, and also rusting.
Going to eat fried chicken for the first time in a year, who makes the best fried chicken also fried chicken bread

i don't know what fried chicken bread is
Op here, lets include all brands not just kfc and popeyes
Why do I always have to travel into the ghetto to get to Popeyes? It's not that I'm afraid, but it's going out of my way.
Meanwhile, there are about three KFC's within five miles of me.
