/ck/ - Food & Cooking

i made shakshuka tonight but i forgot to buy pepper so it was just eggs tomatoes and onions....it was....ok......

>>10733559
I've never had it, sounds interesting though.

>>10733553
anyone else /egg on chicken sandwich/?

>>10733565
its great because you can make two filling meals for like $5

>two cans of whole tomatoes - $1.50
>6 eggs - $2
>onion - $0.40c
>pepper $0.40c
>hot sauce

and then some bread to dip in it. it's healthy and insanely filling. you can even add some sausage too if you're feeling it. the hard part is nailing the eggs because they can get overcooked super easily. i still havent nailed it.

What's the difference between deviled eggs and egg salad? Aren't you essentially making the deviled ingredients and just slopping them on some bread to make sandwiches?

>>10733615
sort of yes

>>10733615
The composition makes a big difference. With egg salad it's one consistent texture and flavor while with the deviled egg you have the distinct separation of the egg white and the much sharper yolk mixture.

>>10733553
God, every time you make this thread I end up making deviled eggs.

Salmonella concerns aside, some experts suggest that eating even one egg a day may exceed the safe upper limit for cholesterol intake in terms of cardiovascular disease risk. Dietary cholesterol may also contribute to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and cholesterol consumption was found to be a strong predictor of cirrhosis and liver cancer. Those consuming the amount of cholesterol found in two Egg McMuffins or more each day appeared to double their risk of hospitalization or death.

>>10733636
So it's less of a difference in ingredients used or flavor and more of a texture thing

Compared with men who rarely eat eggs, men eating even less than one egg a day appear to have twice the risk of prostate cancer progression. And, men who consume two and a half or more eggs per week—basically an egg every three days—may have an 81 percent increased risk of dying from prostate cancer. How could eating less than an egg a day have such potential impact on cancer risk? The answer may be choline, a compound found concentrated in eggs. The choline in eggs, like the carnitine in red meat, is converted into a toxin called trimethylamine by bacteria existing in meat-eaters’ guts. Trimethylamine, once oxidized in the liver, appears to increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, and premature death.

>willingly ingests choline and TMAO

>Freedom of Information Act documents reveal that the U.S. Department of Agriculture warned the egg industry that saying eggs are nutritious or safe may violate rules against false and misleading advertising.

>>10733667
More or less. There's plenty of recipes for lots of foods that have the same ingredients but the method of preparation leads to vastly different dishes.

Deviled eggs?

>>10733660
Outdated information bro

>>10733669
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2782876/
Choline is listed as an essiential nurtient. What are you on about?

>>10733867
nice

>>10734009
Ignore the shitposter. "X has been shown to cause cancer" is always retarded. You know what causes cancer? EVERYTHING. Life itself creates cancer.
Just post eggs.

>>10733577
I want to know where you live where eggs are that much and tomatoes that little

>>10734060
Not that guy but I buy the farmers 5 dozen. It's around 15 cents an egg.

>>10734072
That's still half the cost of what the other guy is paying and 50% more than what I pay.

>>10734060
anywhere

>>10734023
Oh great, I wonder what they're gonna call this new appliance.

>>10733559
Like, black pepper, or peppers as in capsicum?
I've never actually made shakshouka, but I am fully sold on the concept, its in my mental rolodex of recipes.
>Healthy, easy to make, uses up the "I have ____ sitting in the fridge and I better use it."

>>10734141
Glowing Hot 1000 Degree Steel Ball. It's all over youtube.

>>10733615
Yeah, essentially its the same. Just presented as either appetizer or sandwich.

>>10733673
>tmao
trimethylamineoxide?

>>10734145
I'm a fan of the hydraulic press videos. These always take my expectations by unsuspecting surprise, disappointingly. It's like waiting for a cool reaction, and it's kinda cool, but never as cool as you want it to be.

>>10734269
Sorry not egg related.

>tfw had deviled eggs for the first time a week ago
tasty little shits

>>10733553
How the fuck can I make scrambled eggs more creamy and soft instead of crispy and hard like I always fucking do?

>>10734621
Hard to know without knowing what you're doing. Use LOW heat. Use LOTS of butter or cream. Mix CONSTANTLY to make sure no large curds develop. Plate when those eggs are still WET for max eggy.

>>10734621
In a bowl whisk your eggs together, make sure to incorporate air into the eggs. Pour it onto the pan and sort of repeatedly move the egg on the outside to the inside. Also do not let it sit on the pan for too long.

>>10734621
Butter and eggs in cold pan. Med low heat. Stir constantly. Take off just before done.

>>10734621
Mate you're looking for Ramsay style eggs. Give this a watch and you'll be set:

>eggs? no thanks i dont want cancer

>>10734271
Nerve gas
>>10734628
I'm a little skeptical.

>>10733615
I really like deviled eggs. I cannot stand egg salad.

>>10735197
Scrambled is always better.

That's so weird, I just came to /ck/ for the first time in weeks to make a thread about eggs.

Due to circumstances beyond my control I've got 40 eggs that start to go off in 6 days. What are some things I can make that use a gratuitous amount of eggs? I've only got 2 roommates to dispose of the things I make.

>>10733577
You can buy a dozen eggs for 1.50 at Aldis

>>10736309
Make egg pie and freeze it

>>10736309
make 8 quiche dishes, those things last forever

>>10736309
Egg custard tart, must be eaten while the national anthem plays

>>10736309

>Due to circumstances beyond my control I've got 40 eggs

>>10736383
Except quiche is awful.

For me, it is eggs over easy on toast, the very best way to have eggs.

>>10738154
Would you like some eggs with your pepper?

>>10738157
Bro that is a light dusting of pepper.

>>10735197
fried in butter/ghee/bacon grease. relatively low heat. either use a lid or over-easy.

and farm fresh are 1000x better than factory eggs

>>10738154
based

>>10738154
where's the Tabasco, cretin?

>>10733553
Anyone like red beet eggs?

>>10738511
In the garbage can where it belongs.

>>10738511
Tabasco is garbage and I don't really think eggs need anything besides salt and pepper. Their flavor is nice enough to stand on its own.

>>10738511

tobasco improves nothing. it shouldn't exist.

>>10733867
>>Gray outer yolks.
They already fucked up at the beginning of the video. Either overcooked their eggs or didn't cool them down fast enough after cooking.

>>10736309
I would say start off with a large plate of deviled eggs. Most people can finish off like 4-5 eggs themselves as long as you make them have a few different flavors it should be fine.

>>10733867
>not using superior Miracle Whip
>not using brown mustard

>>10738668
>>10738634
the space you take up shouldn't exist

>>10740064
Literally any hot sauce is better.

>>10740064
I'm sorry that you don't know good hot sauce but this isn't the place to argue about it.

Catch me in the next hot sauce thread and I'll make some recommendations for you.
