This does not explain the Chinese phone filename

Someone explain to me how the fuck blanching is supposed to work. Recipes say to blanch x vegetable for 30 or 40 seconds, but as soon as you add them to the water it goes lukewarm and takes 5 minutes to get to a boil again. When does the "blanching" start?

Right when it goes in. If it's going lukewarm and you can literally touch the water with your fingers, you prob need more water to veggie ratio cause you don't have enough thermal mass

Same reason he needs a recipe to boil water, or make toast.

Is it just me, or does boiling a stew outright eliminate most of the spices (paprika, cumin, garlic) after a while?

>>21952866
you have to salt the guac my friend. i usually make a pico with tomato (cored so it doesnt get soggy), lime, serrano, red onion, and cilantro, then mix some of that in the guac, but 9/10 times if the guac tastes bland it's because people dont salt it enough. avocado can take a lot of salt.

Noilly Prat. Some people like Dolin but the first bottle I got was so skunked that I'm still not over it enough to try again.

>>21953630
>Belle Epoque vermouth di Torino
Yeah, sure. I'd like to try it.

>>21952772
>I'd avoid the brand altogether.
Their red vermouth is not going to impress any snobs but it's fine. Old Overholt and Martini & Rossi at 5:2, angostura bitters, stirred and up of course, is the baseline Manhattan I make to compare anything better against.

Some strange people spend on gin but think vermouth is vermouth. Anything worse than Martini & Rossi Extra Dry and I stop drinking martinis. I don't particularly like sweeter gins so the Bianco is probably not for me either.

Glad too see people that care about what they drink on /ck/, lots of times there are just ironical slop slobs.

What would your last meal be?

I'd get salmon sashimi, a gyro, key lime pie, a stout beer, and nigori sake.

I don't understand how my ground beef doesn't taste good.
I've tried using random pre-mixed seasonings, just spices, just salt and pepper, using fresh vegetables, etc, but the ground beef always tastes like unseasoned and unflavored ground beef.
I honestly have never had "bad" ground beef until I started cooking it.
What's the deal?

Don’t drain the fat. The fat gives the flavour.
>>
>>21950550
A professional kitchen is okay with using multiple pans for doing different things, so the order of choice is theirs, but at home people tend to use 1 pan to cook. If using ground beef, you try to brown it first, which requires a minimum amount of oil. If I were using lean ground beef, I'd have to add more oil in else the beef won't taste moist in the end and would suck. Even if you're using 80/20, there still is a lot of fat in the pan after browning, so I drain the fat, and reuse some or all of it to fry veggies after browning the meat.
>>
>>21952004
I forgot to add that I remove the ground beef from the pan to help the veggies fry. If I'm keeping the beef in the pa cause I only want to sweat the veggies, I'd remove any fat I'd deem unnecessary before adding the veggies. If during the fry I think more is needed, then it's very easy to add however much I want back in.
>>
I could probably make a decent burger out of any shitty ground beef from the grocery with just salt and browning. Maybe pepper. No seasoning packets. Maybe a bit of fat if it's impossibly lean, which 80:20 isn't. It's you, anon

Green stir fried just needs salt, garlic and olive oil. White is amazing for cream soup.

Why is white asparagussy so rare in the US? I lived there some years and it was a premium gourmet produce and such. Meanwhile back in Greece it's the default, you have to go out of your way to get green ones.

Do any of you have any good tips or ingredients for making couscous really good?

My current recipe is a 1:1 ratio of couscous to chicken stock. I also add in the juice of one lemon and a little bit of olive oil. Are there any other ingredients or different ratios I should play around with, or keep it as it is and not overthink it?

The trick is eating pizza with a knife and fork. Not only is this cleaner, easier and civilized but you can cut a chunk of the crust, then cut a chunk off the tip (with the cheese, sauce and toppings) and stab them together with the fork.

>>21952899
Or if it didn't have crust you wouldn't need to do that, stupid ass.

>>21952899
pizza isn't that hard, just use the edge of the fork if you need to cut
no need for fucking knife lmao
