Did you treat yourself, your friends or relatives to any expensive whiskies for the holidays? Or do you plan on doing so?For those of you who only drink bourbon and purchase many, many different bourbons, what keeps you interested in it? I like bourbon, but I don’t understand people who only drink bourbon and buy so many different bourbons. While I understand that there’s a decent amount of flavor variance between, say, a high rye bourbon and a wheated bourbon, and a decent amount of flavor variance between, say, a young bourbon and an older, cask-finished bourbon, the amount of flavor variance still pales in comparison to that which can be found in Scotch, and I just can’t fathom limiting myself to only bourbons.For the record, I like Scotch, bourbon, rye and Irish. I just like whisk(e)y.
>>21783584a.ka. the worst Islay
>>21795939Bowmore and Lagavulin are obviously far worse.
>>21795889>Everything pales in comparison to LaphroaigVery well said man and your description of the notes fits perfectly. Just tried her. And what should I say? Liquid art. For the very first moments on the tongue the sweeter notes dominate. Then she fires up the burner and gives you the raw flavors of a stormy island halfway between Scotland and Ireland. Uuuultra long finish. And after the first sip when you smell her again (and your mouth is full of peat) she smellls much sweeter now.It's just a multi-spectrum experience of the finest kind. Worth every cent.
>>21795183I'm this Anon here >>21795998I paid 67 Euros on the .de Amazon. Even at Laphroaig's website the Cask Strength goes for 75 Euros so why not order there? Or are the shipping costs to your cunt so high?
>>21795994Lagavulin is a very nice drop, it's just overpriced.
Raw or caramel onions on a burger?
>>21794410Yes.
>>21794749Onions are literally a white food mr child tastebuds
>>21794410BothThey're both delicious on burgersOnly a retard limits their options
>>21794410Raw if it's a sweet onion, pickled otherwise.>>21794424Respectable choice for a burger, verily.
>>21794417It's actually pronounced "caramel" not whatever you were saying.
>>21793907Already mentioned, they allow steam to escape instead of condensing on them.
>>21793435Very useful on paper but way overpriced, please buy something heavier and larger for more than half the price and a better effect.

>>21793528What in god's name are you doing to your steaks
>>21793528Just snip the connective tissue along that edge at at a couple of points. It's common for porkchops but I've never had to do that with steak. Must be a cheaper cut

Jamon Iberico >>> prosciutto too bad WOPS
>visiting friends in Europe >go to their house for dinner>pic related is basically what their kitchen looked likeIs this normal for laundry to be done in kitchens in europe? In the US, we have separate rooms.
>>21794524Where's the toilet? A proper kitchen should have a toilet.
>>21794890How much cubic cms is 1 deer?
>>21794524Thats a 1980's kitchen in a very small house>>21794537There is a cooker to the left, you can just see it and there is a cooker switch (the cooker is on its own circuit and has a switch where you can turn it off) - its the thing below the eggs in the cupboard. >>21794560No need for AC, Ive got a combi boiler and a wood burner. It never for the two weeks a year its warm and damp enough to want AC, I keep the curtains closed. Got a dryer but hardly use it, more efficient to have two dehumidifiers in a room I dry washing in when I cant outside. My truck is an auto, Mrs's car is an auto. Where you have, or even having a washing machine in the UK relates to how much space you have, which relates to how much money you have. Its not uncommon for people to not have a washing machine and use a laundrette. I sometimes use a laundrette if I have been working on a car/truck and the clothes are covered in oil/grease, using creosote etc because fuck stinking my own washing machine out with that stuff.
>>21794524Are these machines what Americans really cook their burgers in???
Any european with a house in europe is a millionaire. We pay 1st world prices for 3rd world living. We also import the 3rd world as hard as we can.
What did you drink this weekend? I drank pic rel, was good. Didn't expect sugar and caramel to be in it.
>>21791550Because beer under 1$ is almost never good. At best it's drinkable or refreshing when it's hot out
>>21793801beeros
>>21793558nta but here’s some different NA beers that actually have flavor:La Trappe Nilis 0.0Lakefront Riverwest Stein NADeschutes Black Butte Porter NARhinegeist Ghost HazeAthletic Round of CheersBERO Noon Wheat
>>21780472American mass produced beer is proof that you can, in fact, dilute water.
>>21796018Sam Adams is mass produced and it tastes just fine to me.
Myth: Italian cuisine is cheese-heavyReality: This was the influence of the dairy-heavy US and UK. Cheese is supposed to be an accent, and only for certain dishes. It is not something that you just pile in until it overtakes the whole dish. And you NEVER pair it with garlic.
>>21790638I always put parm on my garloid bread.
>>21788977>Ha! Your beloved national dish is ONLY 500 years old! Take THAT reactionary!
>>21788977Bro italians started making tomato sauce a full century before your country existed
>>21788970>It is not something that you just pile in until it overtakes the whole dish. And you NEVER pair it with garlic.oh yeah? try to stop me faggot
>>21790535Who the fuck grates garlic
Why did they discontinue the only healthy cereal?
>>21795796No one wants this, schizo.
>>21794597John Harvey Kellogg was only involved in the beginning with the bland corn flakes, which to his credit let the masses prepare quick meals and take easier shits.William Keith Kellogg engaged in a hostile takeover by starting a new company, burning down the old factory, churning out his own corn flakes, and telling his crazy brother to fuck off. The masses then enjoyed even easier shits with All Bran and the sugary cereals we know and love today.
>>21794219thars how they make most (((natural flavors))) too
>>21795953I guess I've never been constipated really. Like one day because of painkillers. I can't imagine going to a beach but feeling too sick to frolic because I'm constipated. It seems like if it were that bad you'd just stay home. And aside from just knowing you haven't gone, I don't see how it's a big deal. You wouldn't just keep eating day after day if you couldn't evacuate. I guess I don't understand how this works. I've always been healthy.
>>21795990Real constipation feels like you've got a weight in your stomach in addition to being dehydrated, no appetite, and having shitty breath. It's not simply slow digestion, but no digestion. And it can happen when you eat too much fiber without enough hydration, not just from too much meat. Don't mess with high fiber cereal unless you've got the runs or you've got a colostomy bag.
On Saturday, I went to the Beltline Bar in Grand Rapids. They claim to be the inventor of the wet burrito and were featured on Man vs Food. I ordered the “famous”. It was fantastic and exceeded all my looks based expectations. My only regret was not ordering sour cream. Fuck, it was so good. Videos of said burrito:https://youtu.be/rnmwH2udxYohttps://youtu.be/G-spqxpZmhAMenu:https://www.beltlinebar.com/menu?menu=menu

Uhh. Beer bread?
>>21795764Did they even bake them?
>>21795808Why the plastic wrap? Are you in india?
>>21795764Have you REALLY never heard if beer bread before? Beer bread making kits are just as common as beer making kits
>>21795818The Irish make soda bread too, it sounds disgusting.
>le HECKIN beer breadi fucking hate millennials
Didn’t want to go get salt so I seasoned my lamb shanks with 3300mg/100g of Sodium bone broth.How will it turn out? Only time will tell us the answer to that question.
>>21794445It’s all different little muscles>>21794489Whatchu know bout lamb shanks?
>>21793444>>21793449Dude those are literally bones how are you gonna eat them

>>21795371those slices look fantastic. I would kill a (spoiler) child to have those in front of me right now

>>21795371Could get better at my kum’n’go but they’re passable
ain't done this in years
>>21792687Sorry, I didn't get that joke.By the way, sushi made at home in Japan is usually hand-rolled sushi or chirashi sushi.
>>21793732There wasn't a joke.Confused bot reply
>>21791504>>21791508when you make rolls like that, you are suppose to leave a section of the nori riceless so it doesnt have that indent tucked away into itself.you also are suppose to be gentler with the rice when mixing in the vinegar. Pour the sushi su over your wooden/plastic spoon/spatula in a circular motion to difuse it and then mix together by slicing the rice into layers and gently toss to mix. You should never be smashing the grains like that.
>>21795997another criticism i would make is that you need a sharper knife when cutting the roll. First take a sharp knife and gently wet it by dabbing a damp towel or something similar on the knife. This helps prevent the rice from sticking. It's important to also make the cut in one go, if you have to saw back and forth or tear then you are using the wrong knife/it isnt sharp enough. Always clean your knife between rolls and make sure its sufficently damp to have nicer, cleaner looking cuts. you should also cut the end roll pieces so they are uniform with the rest of the sushi for presentation purposes. Go ahead and stuff those ugly end pieces into your mouth when nobody is looking. But if you are showing off, presenting to other people, or even just taking pictures for social media, its considered bad form to have those raw end pieces sticking up like that.
>>21791504Jiro’s on his way to your place to stab you to death as I type this.
What flavored Bacon do you like? This Hormel Franks Buffalo Sauce Bacon was so disappointing. It tasted like someone vaguely waved a bottle of Franks Red Hot next to it during packaging. It was like the LaCroix of Bacon. Would not endorse.
>>21793529Maple flavored bacon hits good
>>21793813that one was a flop, I bought a lot of them for 99 cents each once they expired and tossed in the freezer for clearance. its till bacon, with a hint of useless and potentially distracting flavor. generally still useable as all purpose bacon but stupid to ask a premium price for it
>>21793994Sweetness is made for salty smoky bacon. Add maple to it and it's a match made in heaven.
lmaoI saw that shit on managers special yesterdayNobody loves it and it has no friends>>21795500I couldn't imagine it being any good but I'm glad you got it cheap. I just bought 22oz of salad greens during my lunch break for $1.18
>>21793529I don't like packaged bacon because it's as thin as tissue paper. I fry pork bellies instead
The choice for eggs is clear.
>>21795916this really bothers you huh
>>21794047But I don't even know where to get penguin eggs
>>21795573Quite the contrary. I can remember just a few years ago there weren't schizos pushing their /pol/ agendas here. It's you who is new.
>>21795918>>21795527
