So I just bought a $15 chicken from the butcher and I want to do something new with it.
I've done this recipe several times
(Yeah yeah Jamie Oliver http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/chicken-recipes/perfect-roast-chicken/) and it's the best chicken I've ever made but I'm sure there's something better. Pic related seems pretty ideal but I'm not sure I have the equipment for it after watching the chefsteps video.
Any go to recipes?

Roast chicken is roast chicken. Sorry but it is what it is. It's still a fine thing though.
The Thomas Keller recipe is the greatest roast chicken recipe of all time, fuck jamey olive oil
Just make sure you follow all the steps exactly, including leaving the bird out to warm up a bit

Britbong here.
Just curious, whats a standard US price for a whole chicken?
I'm sous viding a turkey again
Deboned a whole turkey but I'm only working with the breast, thigh, and wing meat really. I took the skin off the bird in one piece so I'd have the most usable area for wrapping the loafs. I meat glued together two loafs, one dark and one light. Should be out in a couple hours, then they're getting deep fried
Why don't you invest in decent quality cooking equipment essentials before splurging on something like sous vide?

Mine is a temperature controller from amazon and an electric hot plate I already had. Cost me $17
Hola /ck/. I have little to no food but I did buy a cauliflower today. Let's see if I can't assemble something edible from the randomness that is my supplies. Pic very related.
>mystery bag of slime in the door
>empty milk bottles
you've piqued my interest
>>7254300
Fucking auto rotating bullshit...
>>7254300
that cauliflower will be the death of you
well?
Because I can cook. Also because I'm not retarded.
i dont even have a toaster, man, why the hell would i want any of that?
>>7254222
You could do just as well with a greased ramekin, and a toaster oven. And you'd get a lot more uses out of it, too.
How much does one of those cost? Toaster oven is $20 on Amazon.

what do you do, /ck/
I'm really asking
how do I save any...

Finish making it right before they arrive.
Prepare the meal yourself and have it ready 5 minutes after whoever is scheduled to arrive is scheduled to arrive?
>>7254212
Have the oven preheated and the roast ready to throw in when they pull up. Put it in, go answer the door. Tell him he's not your real dad.
I really need an answer.
How can I clean produce like apples, peaches, grapes, etc.?
I go to tons of sites (including many government ones) and they say wash your hands and then thoroughly rinse the fruit under water.
Well, how does simply rinsing the fruit actually clean it? If I put my hands in a toilet, just running water over it isn't going to make them clean.
Yet they say not to use soap/detergents. So what the fuck?
>>7254163
Fruit has wax on it to preserve it. Warm water melts the wax and helps remove it.
So you a clean freak or what?
>>7254178
Had to read up on it quickly - wasn't ever aware of this, so thanks.
But surely not all fruits and veggies have preservative-grade wax (after their natural wax has dissipated). What do you when a protective layer is unlikely?

>Exposure, plain and simple. Scientists tell us that aversions fade away when we eat moderate doses of the hated foods at moderate intervals, especially if the food is complex and new to us. (Don't try this with allergies, but don't cheat either: few of us have genuine food allergies.) Exposure works by overcoming our innate neophobia, the omnivore's fear of new foods that balances the biological urge to explore for them. Did you know that babies who are breast-fed will later have less trouble with novel foods than those who are given formula?...

How can i find an electronic kettle that doesn't sound like a plane taking off?
It's not like I can bring a bottle of water to the store and try every model out. Wish I could though.
>tl;dr kettles are too damn loud
>>7253950
I'm curious why noise is an issue.
Get something like pic related.
It doesn't make any noise until it let's you know that it's ready.

![Dovine-Raisins[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/dW1N6KX.jpg "Dovine-Raisins[1].jpg")
I've kind of got this idea stuck in my head: I want to use raisins in a savory meal. Something meaty and rich with the raisins as a nice and sweet offset to the general flavor. No idea if it'd work or even taste well, but I'm willing to give it a try.
I think Moroccan food has a few recipes like this, but I haven't been able to find anything. Can someone here help me out? Recipes, ideas?
i make curried barley with raisins in it
you could do it with rice also.. it's super good
Pork chops with a raisin compote

Skate wing with Raisins rehydrated in wine, capers, lemon Supremes and brown butter sauce.
Why is this the best pop?

>Dr. Pepper
I imagine Dr. Pepper was invented when some cheap fag mixed all the half-drunk sodas at his business together into a disgusting swill, then realized he could dupe people into drinking it.
Fucking awful. Only can of soda I've started that I didn't finish.

Why are people so fervently against prepared vegetables?
>FYI this tray of prepared veg is like £1.50
>>7253498
That's a thing?
>>7253498
They want to eat more
the prepared veg ive seen on the shelves often look a bit past their best, perhaps people prefer to select their own veg and have the freshest ones
the 'thai spice mix' packet looks decent though, i might give it a go sometime
ITT: post food products that both Europe and USA have, but are superior in Europe (or are Superior in USA)
You have to post a very brief explanation as to why it's superior, and post a pic of it.

Cheese, because America cant into cheese
Italian pizza is overrated
