If you're in Britain and like steak, go to Aldi and get their 'Wagyu' steaks. Fucking brilliant. Much better than any other thing I've had from any other supermarket. Cunts like hans_glib and their posh butchers will probably be a different matter. But M&S, Waitrose, Sainsburys offerings? Nup, they pale in comparison to this shit.
- And as much as I fucking love ^chimichurri, all these fuckers need is a little salt and to be properly cooked. De-lish-us.Nairn
- OK, not a 'little' salt. Just the amount of salt that you want. Probably a bit more than 'a little'.Nairn
- A good portion of that salt stays in the pan anyway. So, yeah ... better a bit more than just a little.Continuity
- Well, you need to dry the steaks with a first salt scrub on both sides, then it gets absorbed, then you need to add more and then you have high blood pressure.Nairn
- ooh, wasn't aware Aldi did these. Need to check around Leeds. Cheers Nairn.Ianbolton
- interesting, off to Aldi soon. Always enjoyed their meat over other supermarkets, will be checking these out.fadein11

- why does the second image look AI generated?milfhunter
- They all aredrgs
- HEY Scar, are you taking the piss with us!? By posting some lazy /promts??milfhunter
- @milf Isn't it fun that you can't believe anything anymore? Not saying this is AI, but this is why we should Brand and Boycott.garbage
- It's a drag that you have to do a double-take, and it leaves a doubtful fart on everything you see / hear / read.garbage
- Lol! Nah, these are straight outta my iphone. There should be metadata unless imgur strips photosscarabin
- I watched the entire trilogy yesterday, the ending is bullshit. Frodo sails away on a boat to heaven to deal with his PTSD? What kind of ending is that?scarabin
- Also, he wasn’t even gonna drop it in? It was just luck that gollum attacked when he did and fell in with itscarabin
- Wait a minute, did you JUST watch the LOTR trilogy now? In 2023?? And, was it the extended editions?Akagiyama
- I saw ‘em in theaters half drunk with friends at midnight shows when they came out. So a lot of it is basically new to me now.
Not sure what edition but it tscarabin - ...ook all goddamn dayscarabin
- @garbage yes its garbage.milfhunter
- Well i’m flattered!scarabin
- lol, deep nerd breath: The movies inexplicably don't include one of the final chapters: The Scouring of the Shire.garbage
- The gang returns to the Shire to find all of their town enslaved, it is being industrialized and under rule by a bunch of fascist thugs..garbage
- ..led by a man named Sharkey. The land is a total abyss, the air is choking and the hobbits are living in a violent police state.garbage
- Our lads stage an uprising, overthrow Sharkey (who was Saruman in disguise). Sam becomes a famous a famous gardener and longtime mayor of the Shire.garbage

Visited NY last week and went to Peter Luger Steakhouse.
It was a good steak but not worth the price.
- How much was it?palimpsest
- 3x Steak
1x Salad
1x Fries
4x Beer
2x Prosecco
-------------------
Total: 390 dollarsmilfhunter - This is the way. XDpalimpsest
- Beers where even more insane. Ive once paid 30 dollars for 3 beers.milfhunter
- Not a fan of t-bone, but looks good :)Gnash
- 30$ for 3 beers? Laughs in Czech.palimpsest
- I've seen that place before (on the internets, obv) - is it any good? I was under the impression "it might've been, but thirty years ago"?Nairn
- @Nairn its good but overrated. Nothing special, you pay too much for a decent steak.milfhunter
- I concur. Also, I can't stand how they pre-slice it into those sections. If I'm paying $100 for a steak, I'll take it in 1 piece please.monospaced
- They have an appetizer on the menu called "onions and tomatoes" and it costs at least $20. It's JUST thick sliced raw onion and tomato. that's it. FUCK thatmonospaced
- A $10 beer is normal though at a restaurant or bar.monospaced
- @mono i know about the beer prices being like this everywhere in the city, and that is still fucked up. 3,60 is what you pay in The Netherlands.milfhunter
- I feel the same way about places like Sparks steak house, they make a killing no pun intended off of tourists falling for that old mob mystique_niko
- I’ve never been but I assume it’s overpriced and mediocre so I avoid it, but I could be wrong, maybe it’s great..._niko
- This place is legendary, like it or not. And aren't all steakhouses overpriced?stoplying
- @stoplying agreed, it had some michelin stars in the past so it is def. good food but again overpriced.milfhunter
- $30 for beer?!
Laughs in German, strokes €1.25 500 ml bottle of cold beer.Continuity

Mamá Pali made some bass ceviche for Mrs. Pali's bday yesterday. I tried making my own version but mamma knows best.
No jalapeño, because we still don't fucking grow jalapeño in Peru.- #nojalapenoContinuity
- # you can't handle the truthpalimpsest
- I wanna try that roasted corn. Is it nixtmalized like our “corn nuts”?scarabin
- It's not nixtamalized, that would be Peruvian "mote". This one is called Paccho or Maiz Serrano, it is like corn nuts.palimpsest
- you should post mamma's recipe <3PonyBoy
- Do you have rabbit?utopian
- Sooo.. when do I get an invite?garbage
- Don't you mean guinea pig?palimpsest
- Donde esta la leche de tigre?canoe
- Jalapeño? Ffs rocoto.canoe
- Is guinea pig actually good? I remember seeing photos of them on skewers and wanted to try them.garbage
- Yes please. Looks like summer.MrT
- Guinea pig is good, I always say guinea pig is to rabbit what duck is to chicken. We usually have them fried with stewed potatoes.palimpsest

labor intensive but looks delicious. seems like a great middle eastern street food
- My, that looks lovely. Tell you what it's crying out for, though: a drizzle of pomegranate molasses as a finishing garnish.Continuity
- Good idea!scarabin

Not-instant Ramen. Out of a vending machine. For real.

Made dumplings
- These look delicious. Last weekend I made 1kg of wontons, it takes a bit of time and effort but the taste is amazing, and the cost per wonton is crazy low.BuddhaHat

i need to season it more lolpango - Fuck, these look good!Continuity
- What fillingdrgs
- yummie!Calderone2000
- It's pork and cabbage.pango

- yes please. my favourite filling too.MrT
- i made it with this video.
https://www.youtube.…pango - tho he said no pleat is completely fine but i find that unacceptable. i tried my best to make pleats and they look absolutely horrendous lolpango
- Papa Adam is pretty relaxed about a lot of stuff. He lets you get away with a lot more than others would.Continuity

Crispiest roasted potatoes i’ve ever had. https://www.seriouseats.com/the-…
This pile started out much, much bigger
- Also, that vegan mayo is dead easy. Tbsp each of lemon juice, vinegar, ground mustard, garlic. Blend w 1/2 cup soy milk, and emulsify with 1 cup oilscarabin
- they look amazing, do they use the baking soda trick?
and do you use like a vitamix for the mayo, or just a stick blender?BuddhaHat - Yeah, baking soda + russets. For emulsions i use a lil cheapo ninja blender with an opening in the lid for drizzling in oil. Works like magic!scarabin
- I like to take that mayo and whirl in a few chipotle peppers. Keep it in a squeeze bottle and put it on everything
https://i5.peapod.co…scarabin - Once you see it...found the turtle!
https://i.imgur.com/…
I like Turtles.utopian - Kenji's roast potato method is my go-to. This man can do no wrong.Continuity
- The vegan mayo is interesting, I'd no idea soy milk can be used in emulsions instead of eggs. I should tell my mum about this, she's veggie.Continuity
- they use baking soda for meat as well at chinese restaurants. makes them more tender. i gotta try it.pango
- Just be careful who much you use, pango - it can quickly make beef end up with a weird slimy texture and taste like soap.Nairn
- A half teaspoon per pound is ample, and you don’t let it marinade for more than half an hour. That helps avoid the slimy overly soft results.monospaced
- @continuity yeah! It works really well https://www.ncbi.nlm…
Also i should clarify i meant “stone ground” not “ground”scarabin - Would eat. Baking soda is the secret ingredient in so many things. Magic powder staple.garbage

Think I'm going to try a homespun variant on this, but no fucking lamb, no fucking reliance on nutmeg only.
I'm kind of thinking that a pork and chicken mince might work here, in a shitload of herbs and spices?
- What have you got against lamb?BuddhaHat
- I lived next to a lamb farm as a kid, and to me the smelltaste is just like sheep shit. Also, my partner doesn't like it.Nairn
- Yeesh settle down I didn't ask for your life story :P just kidding that makes sense.BuddhaHat
- Pork in an Egyptian dish. Oh, no ... flolContinuity
- If it wasn't for such daring cross-cultural pollination, I'd not have my beloved pinchos morunos...Nairn
- Oh. Well, yeah, fair point, that.Continuity
- Wait until you smell pig shit and chicken poop...shapesalad
- I've smelt both, but neither meat tastes of it.Nairn
- You said no fucking lamb like it's the merlot of meats :-)
https://www.youtube.…canoe - I’ve never had lamb that tasted like shit or a farm. Lol.monospaced
- haha, I need to watch that again - love that flick. Although it hits a little close to home sometimes...Nairn
- which part(s)?canoe
- Well, just aspects of the two main characters and their occasionally poor interaction with reality.Nairn
- Having watched this video, and also compared with other recipes and methods online, I've decided I need this. Badly.Continuity
- Great movie.canoe

What recipe/dish do you love to cook, love to eat?
And, do any of you write your own recipes?
I started a thread called Creative Kitchen where I was attempting for foodies that know how to cook to buy the same ingredients, try something new and learn throughout the process. We should get that going - every other week?
- Long list here... Paellas, meat, fish and vegetables in bbq or parrilla the most. But it is difficult to choose a favorite recipe or ingredient!OBBTKN
- No favorite recipe here, when I was a vegetarian I loved vegetarian English breakfast as lunch. And love vegan feijoada both the Portuguese and Brazilian onesoey_oey
- I rarely use a recipe unless there's someone invited for dinner, but I can share some in that thread, like asparagus soup topped with pistachios...oey_oey
- yumcanoe
- Oh fuck, where do I start. Tacos of all sorts, ramen of all sorts, boeuf bourguignon, carbonara, tortilla de patatas, spaghetti aglio e olio, the list goes on.Continuity
- I’m down if it’s not meat-centric every timescarabin
- Actually scratch that, i can just fashion a veg analogue for any meat ingredientsscarabin
- That's cool you get a veg box, we're doing that this summer also. We've had them before and you're right, challenging, and educational.canoe
- scarabin10
Some shots found on my phone. Mostly meal prep stuff i took to work.
I like techniques rather than recipes, so i can make up stuff on the spot. I get a veggie box delivered and sometimes some of the stuff just stumps me. It pays to be flexible.
Sorry in advance to photo guys, i never meant these for viewing :)
- lol i only care for colours. and it looks naturalpango
- also scarabin just gotta skullpango
- Ha. Those had pizza filling. Needed somethin’ portable for schlepping around disneylandscarabin
- yum! <3 the skulls.instrmntl
- is there anythign you can't do?Squiddy
- Sourdough! Mine always comes out dense. And i have no meat cooking experience so i’d probably ruin your steakscarabin
- Looks delicious!! (And very well looking) Ace man!OBBTKN
- That second pic looks fucking yummy. Some sort of curry with naan and aromatic rice?Continuity
- Yeah, that was a saag paneer and cucumber raita. Tortilla ‘cause i’m too lazy to make roti and they’re basically the same thingscarabin
- that curry looks so goodfadein11
- All look super tasty. Get what you mean about learning processes. I’m the same. Like, ‘why is that made that way?’. Then see if I can make it my own way.Ianbolton

Well, look: I've never had tacos al pastor before — much less the real deal from Mexico City — so it's not like I have anything to compare my results with.
But, this recipe from Serious Eats is astonishing. It's so, so, so delicious. Will absolutely make again, and it's 1000% worth the time it took.
(Garnished with a bit of salsa verde, onions, coriander, and pineapple roasted in the pork fat.)
- Looks great!!!
Fax some over.palimpsest - Dear God.Nairn
- congrats, that looks amazing. and it also looks more convoluted than Pango's noodle soup. Did you do the whole circle grill charcoal thing? did it take 11 hrs?_niko
- oh never mind I see you can do it in the over as well through probably won't get that nice charcoal flavour, damn now I have to try this_niko
- Looks very good! Serious eats is a great site. Did you make or buy the tacos?MrT
- Want!! Looks fantastic. Bookmarked the Serious Eats website. Thanks!Green_Pork
- Last time I followed a recipe I used my dirty socks as oven mittens and stepped on a tomatodrgs
- @niko Yeah, I used the oven method. It was one of my criteria when I was researching recipes and methods, cos I'm not allowed to cook with fire on my balcony.Continuity
- @MrT Bought them ... one day I'll try making my own, but this time, I wasn't in the mood. Also, I haven't got a tortille press (yet).Continuity
- not a big fan of warm fruits on my food but you are selling it like i should give it a shot.milfhunter
- ^ I'm normally not, either, but the pineapple is an absolute must. Sooooo good!Continuity
- Looks just like what you get in Mexico.monospaced

- *warm/char tortillas on the hob flametbgoodwillie
- I'd heartily recommend getting a press, esp. as you clearly enjoy putting in the effort : ) I made your Mexicana recipe from a few pages back, + tortillas...MrT
- It was delicious and has gone in the sacred recipe binder! Soz for shitpic, I was a bit d-runk. https://jmp.sh/nWMM7…MrT
- Damn, Mr T. Looking at your tortillas in that pic, you've sold me on a press!Continuity
- Thanks, do it! MrsT is GF so they get made a lot. Delicious charred edges and they stay warm forever under a cloth. The first one with just lime + salt = joy.MrT
- Do you use the white or yellow masa harina?Continuity
- Nice work!canoe
- Do you cook often from Serious Eats? Did you compare it to Bayless?canoe
- I didn't compare to Bayless, though I should. I understand he did for Mexican food in the US what Ramen_Lord (Reddit) and Ivan Orkin did for ramen.Continuity
- I use both, this one currently. We don't get the range in Aus so I use what I can. https://cdn11.bigcom…MrT

- Also this but in date : ) https://internationa…MrT
- Ahaaaa. Lista is white, Harina is yellow. I'm going to try with Lista, first.Continuity
- These are a staple! Made ‘em with grilled portabello strips and cotija last timescarabin
- I fucking love cotija cheese. Texture of cheese curd for poutine, with an awesome salty funk.Continuity
- Looks great!!!
