>mostly bland with capsaicin being dominanti thought using a bunch of spices was supposed to give lots of flavor? what did i do wrong?>fenugreek>black pepper>paprika>cayenne>turmeric>nutmeg>cinnamon>salt>coriander>garlic powder>cumin>red pepper flakescooked with onion, ginger, garlic. it is more enjoyable to just eat my rice with soy sauce
>>20415185hmm, okay. i will have to experiment then, because i don't like using more than one pan since i usually don't have room on the stove. i'm thinking that i should just skip the toasting and do the oil infusion first with the spicy, pungent, and bitter spices, then put the onions in and the rest of the spices like cinnamon and nutmeg go in later>>20415188>If your turmeric is from Bangladesh, it has lead oxide in ityeah i realized that lots of turmeric is fake, so i got some roots and grated it
>>20415193you can definitely skip the first and last steps I mentioned, I just have an obsession with spices. also if you're in a tropical or subtropical climate, the whole ginger family (ginger, turmeric, galangal, cardamom) are super easy to grow but you need to invest time.if you start liking working with spices and want to go further, a hefty mortar and pestle or a spice grinder are good purchases, and then just a teeny tiny pan to do some spice tempering.there's nothing wrong with using premade pastes if you want to try a new style or regional variant and then looking at the ingredients and reverse engineering the recipe.if you want to become a huge nerd about it, I recommend The Science of Spice by Stuart Farrimond.
>>20415206>>20415193also Pat Chapman's Curry Bible, but I found his book was a bit more geared towards prepping a heap of stuff for if you're literally cooking a curry at least 4x per week
>>20415057>>fenugreek>>black pepper>>paprika>>cayenne>>turmeric>>nutmeg>>cinnamon>>salt>>coriander>>garlic powder>>cumin>>red pepper flakesdo you know what each of these tastes like or are you a retard who just dumps?
>>20415227this anon is under my protection. do not harry or hassle him, for he is to embark upon a great journey. and yea, he may be a retard, but were we not all retarded upon our day of birth?
This tastes like cough syrup.
>>20407425Hypothetically speaking, if I did a shot of Listerine, what would happen
>>20414047Gimme an answer
>>20414047gross. what is even in that?
>>20407425my mom loved it because she was ill from the lungs and this got her high and stopped her cough. So we both drank till wasted. I'm sure is good for you since not even her breathalizer helped with her cough
>>20415231Then you fucked her?
>name is derived from the English word "lemonade">original flavor isn't lemon
>>20414504but anon that's littering
>>20414373>ramune>lamune>lemonWhy didn't I realize that before? It makes perfect sense!
>>20414473>i like collecting the marblesThe main reason why there are so few old original ones of those bottles from when they were widespread used.People and especially children would smash them to get to the marble
>>20414547No it's not. Glass is a rock. It literally came from the ground.
>>20414397the center one says original on it.that's the lemon-lime flavored one.it's as much a lemon soda as 7up is.
When butter's too hard to spread, i melt it in my mouth, pour it out back on the break and get amazed at the stroke of genius that is my lifehack.It's impossible to top in its brilliance Any cooking hacks you'd like to share?

The less alkaline your pancake batter is the whiter they'll turn out.
Do the same trick to cool off boiling oil. Tell us how it went
>>20412656You need to open a restaurant, OP.
What is the weirdest thing you ate as a kid?
>>20408924Nightcrawlers
Boogers, finger nails, skin, scabs and the crunchy "blood boogers" that live in your nostrels after a blood nose, they were my favorite.
>>20408924My folks bought a little candy factory, when I was nine years old and I kind of lost my mind. It ended with me running a baloney-and-cheese sandwich through the enrober (chocolate coating machine).
>>20408943>finks!
>>20414420Holy shit, I did something similar! Salami sandwich, no cheese. It was awful. I also put a piece of raw fennel through it and that wasn't so bad.
where do you sit?
>>20413454>Japs think literally every cuisine is shit except whatever is within a 500 mile radius of their countryfurther proof they are the worst breed of slant-eye with zero fucking taste or desire to experience the world. imagine wanting to marry their women.
The most interesting thing to be is both the UAE and Finland being in top 8 openness to other cuisines. would've figured both are fairly insular, or at least Finland would be. UAE benefits from being the least oppressive mudslime shitskin country in the region and are relatively more cosmopolitan than their neighbors so that probably explains it but I really am surprised by how high of an opinion Finns have of alternative culinary traditions. Feels like they would've been a lot more insular.
>>20413454What the fuck is Japan’s problem?
>>20413729>>20415194The Chinese are worse. They give no country a passing grade but their own. Even Hong Kong is sub-70 IE a failing grade.That's right: the "people" who brought you coof soup, eggs cooked in literal piss and boiled ox dick think pizza, Sunday roast with Yorkshire puddings and tacos de barbacoa de chivo are completely disgusting.Fuck mainlanders. I hate them so fucking much.
>Chinese people give Taiwanese food a 64 out of 100really makes u think
Could I survive and be healthy if I only ate sandwiches both for lunch and dinner?I want to spend as little time as possible preparing, eating and cleaning my meals. I want to eat about 2.500 calories a day and have a balanced nutrition.
>>20415153whasting food in this economy anon is an act of the haram

>>20415214but which side
>>20415217sinister
>>20415219good
In a restraunt with courses, is it faux pas to only order the main?The way the waiter told me about the menu felt like it was.
>>20413011Just get 4 appetizers instead.
>>20413046I can see why you were dining alone.
>>20413075You're not going to peer-pressure me into acting like a commoner.
>>20413075Sexual dining
>>20413011Just make an excuse OP. I always say "everything looks lively but I can't eat much right now so I'll just order the main".

When I go to Red Lobster, I always wear my admiral's hat. The staff there knows not to give me a menu, because the admiral always gets the Admiral's Feast.
>>20414730The lobster is for the captain
>>20414704based admiral regular
>>20414711
>>20414704I bet when the waitress first comes over to your table, and she sees your hat, she looks at your wife and they both roll their eyes and laugh
>>20414714>you must order something you do not enjoyWhy even post
>is literally just uncooked fish
>>20409803true but the secret is in the rice
>>20415164what about the tamago? the tamago!
>>20414974oh no WAI-
>>20411392I hope this isnt a pic forms Michelin restaurant because that rice is soggy and oversauced
>>20415164Rice was merely used to ferment the fish but was thrown away, it WAS a Japanese idea to start eating the rice too/incorporating it into the "dish."Hilarious that the Japanese cause so much seethe that people will make debunking images like this, when they have literally zero reason or connection to hate the Japanese except "Japan popular"

Post things that are better than the name brand version.Took these from my nut allergic brother.WTF why do the nutless have better m&m's then the nutful?
>>20413505How about I buttfuck you till you bleed
>>20413505good idea, thanks anon. He'll thank me for it one day.

>>20413397budget stores like Aldi usually have some tasty versions of brand foods
Stop reading my thoughts! I was going to post the same thread. Safeway frozen pizza is way better than it has any right to be. How in the shit is a $3 frozen pizza better than Newman's Own? Newman's Own is poopshits and I hate it but I fucks with Safeway supreme pizza.
Discuss your favourite alcohol in this thread and the way you like to drink it be it neat, chilled, with ice or in a cocktail or mixed drink. Look down on others who drink competing brands who you think lesser of or if you feel the way they drink their alcohol is unmanly.

I've been drinking wine recently.Found out that I really like Chianti, Sangiovese, and Grenache. No wonder they call this stuff the blood of Jupiter.Wholly fuck - I didn't realize wine could actually taste good. I now have wine-lust, where I just want to keep drinking it, it's so good, warm summers day good.Recommend good wines, or discuss wines in general.
>>20414849I think he means a nebriolo which is a higher tannic wine
I only drink syrah and oporto, nothing beats a good sweet galette and a cup of 30 years old tawny, just too good I wish I wasnt so broke otherwise I would buy it often instead on by monthly.
>>20414767I've just been drinking homemade wines, had good results with black tea and lemon zest, not so great results with cranberry apple, and amazing results with strawberry apple plus some mint green tea in secondary. Gotta add sufficient sugar and yeast nutrient and avoid anything with excessive preservatives, but other than that you can brew any sweet liquid into a wine.
