What are some things that if you saw, you would instantly think "This person has no idea what the fuck they are doing when it comes to cooking." I will start.I think people that add butter to like everything are fucking retarded. I would go so far to say that butter is specific uses and isn't ideal for many things that people use it for. I've seen people put butter over rice and it just fucks it in my opinion. What about you? What evils of cooking have you witnessed?
>>22005877They follow receipies to a t.
Butter over rice, I would eat it thrice. The flavor would go nice with onions and bell pepper that I would dice into some spanish style rice
>>22005877Chicken in the OP picture. Are chicken thighs better than breasts? Is the protein difference all that extreme. I fuck up making chicken breasts and strongly prefer thighs. However, I know thighs have higher fat content.
>>22005879They even look at recipes instead of simply intrinsically knowing or intuiting even the bizarre ethnic food of other races, without ever having seen or tasted them (unironically)
>>22005951Breasts are only worth considering for lifters who have high lean body mass and want more muscle. Even then it's totally feasible to reach their target 0.7-1g/lb lbm or whatever without breasts. Regular people none of that shit matters and they should just enjoy the thighs.
>>22005877>add butter to like everythingI think people that say "like" in meaningless contexts are fucking retarded. Also, adding butter is an intelligent and thoughtful addition to almost every food, especially something otherwise flavorless and nutritionally vacuous like rice or potatos.
>>22005877>he isn't a chef
>>22005877>I think people that add butter to like everything are fucking retardedBut isn't this on old trick of French restaurants? "Official" recipes always underdo decadent ingredients like butter, in order to appear classy and healthful. But when you actually taste dishes made by-the-book at home, versus ones you get at restaurants, the taste difference is quite noticeable. It's because restaurants don't actually do things by the book. They do whatever it takes to keep the customer coming back. And putting excess butter in everything is an old standby.
>>22006083Buttering rice is also a really common trick for Indian restaurants.
>>22005951Thighs are superior because they have higher fat content. You need fat in your diet and you paid for those calories when you bought the chicken so you better eat it.
Fuck you buttered rice is delicious.
>>22005924Stop that
>>22006083I wonder if this has changed since restaurants have been made to put calorie counts on their menus.
>>22005951I prefer the flavor of thighs, plus they are cheaper on my store and when I bake them they let out a juicy broth and aren't as dry as breasts
>>22006148Real restaurants don't do that though. Only chains and fast food. I've never seen calories at any mom and pop restaurant and likely never will.
>>22006109>BUT THIGHS ARE LE DARK MEATBreast meat is dry 90% of the time because it doesn't have enough fat. White meat/dark meat doesn't matter. What matters is taste. Breast meat is prized for the same reason that filet mignon is: stupidity.
>>22006158And that's how they get away with their trickery. It's nice to suspend disbelief once in a while though, and suspend your rouser suspenders, in kind.
>>22006137Oh but what fun it is to proclaim my love for certain food. I do not wish to be rude, but it certainly puts me in a good mood.
>>22006149That "broth" you speak of is basically just fat. Eating / drinking liquid chicken fat doesn't make you shit your pants?
>>22006085>going to indian restaurants
>>22006197Indian food is pretty popular. Despite the amount of people here who hate Indians, I would wager that at least 60% of people here have tried Indian food at least once
>>22006204I've never had it or been to a restaurant for it. Some of it looks decent and I would be happy to try, but not enough to go out of my way for. Regardless I would never want it prepared by an actual indian.
>>22006148Studies have shown restaurant dishes' calories are about 20% higher than the reported number, so probably not.
>>22006204Indians and Indian food are disgusting. Never tried it and never will
>>22006694I bed this guy has that old people smell
>>22006700Better than smelling like curry and poo
>>22006718That is the white people poo smell?
People who smash the burger patties down on the grill at bbqs.
>>22006197Go back to /pol/ retardI'm homemaking palak paneer for the first time tomorrow and excited about it.
>>22006720All smash your Patty's ^_^
>>22006719SAAAAAARRRRR
>>22006720Yeah. Use a stainless steel pan.
>>22006197where am I supposed to get my coffee if not Tim Hortons?
>>22006723See, that's different. Indian food is fine. I just don't want food prepared by Indians.
>>22005877It really bothers me when people dont get the slime off when they make chicken tenders. You dont have to use a whole ass bottle of dawn, but 1 part soap to 4 parts water (basically foaming hand soap concentration) gets rid of that without any off tastes. I've seen some people even use that slime instead of using egg wash to coat chicken with, absolutely disgusting.

I once saw a girl try to spray a pan with cooking spray. All you have to do is hold the spray away from the pan and give it two or three incredibly short squirts. Maybe 0.01 seconds per spray. She held the cooking spray a centimeter away from the pan, held the spray down for a good 10 seconds, and zig zagged super quick around the pan. When she was finished, about 25% of the pan had actual cooking spray, and the rest was bare metal. I just watched in disbelief, then mansplained how to cover the entire pan with my superior manly physics knowledge.
>>22007284you forgot to post keys
>>22007284wine ruins anything cooked with it yes even if it is the "good stuff".
>>22005877where oysters
>>22007321>delusions of a tastelet
>>22007284My roommate yelled at me about using metal spatulas and threw them away the other day :(
>>22006195He never said he drinks it. He might save it for fried rice or to throw in a soup or something later. However I have drank it and it is in fact delicious and no it does not.
>>22007290see I judge people for using cooking spray at all. who the fucks pays a premium to get seed oil with a spray nozzle. if you really want to coat your pan with seed oil for some fucking reason (I can't see a scenario where it would ever be preferable over a different fat) just use a regular bottle that you probably also have and spread it around.
>>22006047they are extremely cheap right now for some strange market reason. A couple of years ago thighs were like 75 cents a pound and boneless skinless breasts were like $4, now thighs cost more than boneless skinless breasts. Fookin mental innit
>>22006851Is there really an unironic 'wash chicken with soap' homie in this thread?
