Once tried to make cookie cakes
>>20397116extra salt in peanut butter cookies goes hard so i trust anon, nothing wrong with sweet & salty
>>20395627No pic, but I've gotten pretty happy with making sandwich bread. I've got a recipe that only takes like three hours from start to finish, most of which time is letting the dough rise, and it results in a nice sandwich loaf that we eat on all week. Pretty cool.
I NEED BETTER LIGHTINGI FUCKING HATE LIVING HEREFUCK THIS HOUSE FUCK MY LIFE

Banana chocolate chip cookies with miso and brown buttah. The little dots are homemade dulce du leche.
>>20397116>>20399498>>20399527Yeah how cringe. Always make a recipe to a T the first time then adjust it for future batches to your liking.
I whipped the egg whites by hand, first time actually being able toIm quite proud of myself
>>20400336Here's the end result, a japanese cheesecake, waiting on the fridgeYou can see the angle of this photo is weird, it's to hide that Ive broken the cake when getting it out of the panNext time I'll use parchment paper
>>20395860I'm happy for you, those look good
>>20398379Recipe please and temperature of fermentation.
>>20399501raisins not sure why anyone would make them without
>>20400553300g white bread flour100g whole wheat flour8g salt8g instant yeast20g nonfat dry milk powder220g spring water60g honey60g olive oilMake as usual, really. Bulk rise at room temp which here ranges (depending on time of year) anywhere from 60°to 80°, so adjust the time from an hour down to a half hour. Shape into a loaf and let rise in the pan for, again, an hour down to half an hour depending on ambient temp. I could get more scientific and use a proofer but my small kitchen is basically full and I don't want to add yet another thing. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes, shooting for an internal temp of 200°. It's not the world's best bread but it's way better for sandwiches and toast than the sliced sandwich bread we used to buy at the supermarket. Plus it's kinda fun to make it. It's like a little Sunday ritual.
>>20400564absolutely disgusting post
Buttermilk biscuits.One might be surprised at the number of simple mistakes one can make that can negatively impact the biscuits. The three main ones are, in order:Not folding the dough enough, and also overfolding it. Rolling the dough, then folding it back over itself and rerolling about 5 or 6 times should suffice.Not to twist the cutter when cutting the biscuits from the rolled dough. Twisting the cutter rolls the edges over and causes them to stick to the bottom side, restricting the ability for the biscuit to rise well. You end up with flat dense biscuits instead of soft thick flaky ones.Finally, the biscuits should be placed on the pan so they're touching sides with each other. This helps them to rise as each rising biscuit kind of picks the others up and bring them along for there ride. Having made this mistake several times I can say the impact is pretty significant.Anyway, I usually use these biscuits with sausage patties and cheese. Sometimes I'll instead take drippings and make homemade sausage gravy and put that on them instead. Either way, they're divine.One thing I have not yet done is put cheese in the recipe and make cheesy biscuits, or perhaps also jalapeno for jalapeno cheese biscuits.
>>20400927Well done, anon. I've never mastered the humble biscuit. Right now I'm working on english muffins cause my wife loves them and I'd like to make them for her from scratch.
>>20400951The main thing is to just try them out and keep fucking up! I made like... half a dozen bad to okayish batches before I finally got it down.Speaking of baked things, I need to get back into making dinner rolls. I made a set of yeast rolls once and they ended up picture perfect, then I never made them again. They were so delicious too.What's your english muffin recipe you're working with? I love making english muffins with egg and cheese, but I came to dislike the store bought muffins because they were always slightly rubbery.
>>20400973I'm so early in the process that I don't have an english muffin recipe yet. I'm still in the reading recipes and watching Youtubes stage. The fact that I'm getting over a bad cold has also taken my momentum away.
>>20400979That sucks anon, hope you feel better soon.
>>20400985Thanks! I'm sure I'll be over it in a few days.
toast sandwich recipe:>make a piece of toast>add butter and old bay to both sides>put between 2 pieces of bread.tried building this after seeing the bread sandwich meme and it was actually pretty good
>>20400994>bread sandwich :/>black bread sandwich:0Try a banana and mayo next time
>>20399457No-no, they're called bouncy castles!
>>20398358recipeeee pls, my granmum would love these
>>20399794oh my god please please please recipe
I really want to make lemon bars, but they always end up messed up.Anyone have a good recipe?
>>20401779this is a little strange, you can either do this with lemon or orange (use orange cake mix and zest and juice of orange instead of lemon)1 package of lemon super moist cake mix1/3 cup softened butter3 eggs8 oz. softened cream cheese1 cup powdered sugarzest and juice from 1 lemonbeat cake mix, butter, and 1 egg until crumblypress in the bottom of a greased or nonstick sprayed 13x9 panbeat cream cheese until smooth, add powdered sugar, then beat in the zest and juiceset 1/2 cup of that cream cheese mix in the fridgebeat in 2 eggs to the rest of the cream cheese mixpour that over the boxed cake layer bake for 25 minutes at 350 degrees F.cool completely then spread the 1/2 cup of cream cheese mix that you put in the fridgecan be made with cocoa instead of orange/lemon for a chocolate version
>>20397116>>20399498I'm not the owner of the recipe, but sugar in baked goods act as a softener, not only as a sweetener, so by removing sugar you will end up with a different end result.As for the flour, you will also get a different result by messing with it.As a rule, always make a recipe as written the first time you make it, then change it as you like.Have some appreciation for the guy who shared his recipe and give him some thanks.
>>20401679Honestly it was so many years ago doubt I have it anywhere :(
>>20401779>>20401935I had one too somewhere but I like anons take
>>20401679since the OP of the recipe can't give itjust search muffin tin chocolate chip cookiesyou'll find something
>>20401779>>20404361Found it, it has cups and metric for whatever takes your fancyhttps://www.recipetineats.com/wprm_print/25339
>>20395627>a thread for sharingcan you share the recipe for that lemon tray cake OP
Thread full of ai shit..
>>20399527Why are you so mad? I didn't say it was wrong, just stating my preferences. It would be pretty boring if we couldn't critique anything.>>20400331I typically do. But I know from experience what I would do differently here.
My curry
>>20396350The shiny ones had just come out of the oven, as the cool they get less shiny but much more crunchy on the outside.
>>20405171Looks like shit (In a good way)
>>20399501I've never had an oatmeal cookie without raisins, and I never will.
>>20395627Looks edible>>20395634Plain and boring, the kinda crap I wouldn’t buy when food shopping even if it were on special.>>20395860Don’t even know what I’m looking at. It’s like two retards with Down’s syndrome tried making pies. Also the last thing your mother should be shoving down her fat, stretched out throat is more chocolate.>>20395886This looks like shit you would try to avoid stepping on at the beach. Looks like you’ve tried making sand castles out of my shit the morning after I drink two bottles of red wine.>>20395913Genuinely looks like dog vomit.>>20396578Looks like dog food that was thrown up by a dog.>>20398358Emphasis on “tried”.>>20399794I would maybe try one but not sure if that’s only because mostly every other “food” pic I saw before this was so embarrassingly shameful.>>20400413Just buy it from the store and there’s too much sunlight in that room, close the curtains, nobody wants to see some middle aged male dickhead thinking he’s Japanese and making cheesecake.>>20400927Crap, also not reading your post either. Why would you make biscuits when you could try making actual food.>>20405171I would be more keen on the chicken but it’s alright. You would be more of a man than that other donkey in the other post with too much sunlight in his room making Japanese fucking cheesecake. If you and cheesecake dickhead were to fight I would put money on you. His little fragile frame wouldn’t be getting any protein from cheesecake.
I chop two red potatoes into cubes, toss in air fryer with some pieces of chicken on top.After 12 mins I put it into a pan with a little bit of water full of spices (cayenne, turmeric, random). When the water has boiled off I add butter and EVOO and stir around for 30s.Extremely delicious and cheap

>>20402216>As for the flour, you will also get a different result by messing with it.Yes, and I know the result.

>>20409003I highly appreciate the removal of the (You). Good job anon >>20408990Yeah sorry, my bad. As long as it's not powdered/icing sugar instead of the castor it's fine. Not sure why the glaze using granulated though, maybe it gives a crunchier texture.

I made japanese style milk bread. Honestly wasn't hard to do, and is damn tasty. Fluffiest bread I've ever had.
>>20420707at the very end, c'mon man>>20420781recipe pls?
>>20420811NTA but Woks of Life and A Taste of Asian Food
>>20420811https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/japanese-milk-bread-recipeFollowed this one. Made it twice, and the first time had... a hard time with my food processor making the dough. It started making unhappy sounds and I paused the blade, and in that time the dough settled into the bottom of the bowl and gummed it up completely. Had to finish off by scraping all the dough out of the bowl and kneading like crazy for 15 minutes.This time, though, I just let it run and held it down while it shook like a thing possessed, and after a minute or so the dough actually came together as expected. Probably not worth the risk if you don't have a beefy food processor, though.
Speaking of amateur cooking, I'm on my early 20s still living with my parents, and lower middle class (on a 3rd world country at that); and while we don't exactly lack for food, my mom insists on taking care of the food, but due to our economic situation our weekly food consists of>monday: soup>tuesday to friday: noodles or rice with red sauce, sometimes a small spin taken but still that, and polenta occasionally>saturday: fried chicken with potato puree or salad>sunday: pasta or barbecued meat>also, trash food for dinner on thursdays and weekends, and occasionally during the week>also also, since I have to take my food to work, I hardly ever eat soup and instead is mostly noodles or rice with a small variationI pointed this out to her when we were going to have rice again today, and she practically broke down crying saying that she was doing what she could with what little she had (I buy stuff twice a month and they don't/hardly work anymore but also have no retirement money, and my older brothers help with the bills but not the day to day stuff).Can I get some advice on relatively cheap but varied weekly food?
Paratha with chicken keema (Indian) and some sumac (middle eastern) sprinkled on top Extremely grim meal I imagine Indian peasants have minus the sumac
Indian masala goat liver. A dish my dad told me his grandma aka my great grandma would make The naan is there but it’s definitely not somrtging my great grandma would’ve had. It’s frozen from the local jeetslop store Similar to other cultures apparently liver was a big thing in the olden days but now liver consumption is far lower
>>20395627That looks cozy and nice. Well done.
>>20396578It's meant to be made with leftovers from a fry or from the week. That's a lot of sausage and bacon.
>>20406611Nice!
Why is it whenever I try to make curry/tagine/stew I just get sloppa?
Humble fish (baked salmon) wraps with potatoes, roasted bell peppers and french dressing

>>20422311those are some crispy taters, any trick to get em that nice? also there's a hair on your plate, sending to the feds for analysis
>>20398358They have these at Disney's California Adventure. Except they're called Jack Jack Cookie Num Nums and they're oily as fuck since they have a shit ton of hydrogenated oil instead of butter.
>>20422368Ever hear of oil?
>>20422368I don't use any oil, just air fry them without and they come out greatAnd yeah, noticed the hair just after snapping the picture kek
>>20418710i can't stop thinking about how those green beans are going to be overcooked by the time the potatoes and carrots are done
>>20422380Yeah, but the only time I was ever able to get my spuds that nice and crispy was following some recipe of parboiling them with a pinch of baking soda, tossing them in a steel bowl to build up some mash on the outside, then baking them with some olive oil>>20422416Cheers
>>20395634>no raisinsDROPPEDROPPED
Pot roast and cheesy taters in the oven right now. Can't wait to eat it.
>>20423245I can almost see it now with that descriptionI won't believe it until I see it though
>>20395627I made a half-homemade chicken tikka masala last night. Started with whole chicken thighs (bought cheap at Aldi and vacuum packed for the freezer) from which I removed the skin and bone and cut into bite-sized pieces. Then I "marinated" the chicken in a lot of garam masala and a lot of salt and a fair amount of oil. I was going to use yogurt but I noticed at the last second that the yogurt we currently have in the fridge is vanilla flavored, so that scuttled that plan. Found the biggest onion in the bin and diced it fine. Made a stainless saute pan super hot and dumped in the chicken so it would color to the point of charring a tiny bit, then added the onions and cooked them until they were soft. Then (the shameful part) I dumped in a jar of store-bought tikka masala curry and let the whole thing simmer for like 90 minutes. Despite the lack of yogurt on the chicken and the store-bought curry, it turned out well. I felt momentarily good about myself.
