Unironically found a mouse at home today, lads. Anything useful I can do with it?

Cast Iron is a great test of who the stupid, lazy, and unwilling to do their research are.

Okay retards. Here's a fool-proof way to season your cast iron pans.
>Make sure it's clean
>Put it on the stovetop
>Highest heat you have
>Let it get hot
>Put on a glove or use a hot pad to pick it up
>Add 1 Tbsp veg oil. No more, no less.
>Smear on all sides with paper towel, including outside and handle
>Put back on heat for 2 mins
>Flip over and heat upside down for 1 min.
>Turn off heat. Let cool
You're welcome

>>11606552
>Make sure it's clean
I don't think you know where you are.

>>11606552
>retards will actually do this

>>11604749
preaching the word brother who would use anything but the pure natural cooking surface of cast iron!

>>11604722

Gotta admit, it makes for a fantastic tard filter.

>>11604722
I've never had this problem.

>>11604730
Use it in conjunction with a keyboard.

More like a neet filter, if you use cast iron you don't have a job it's that simple.

>>11608741

I exclusively use cast iron, and am a security contractor for some of the largest oil & gas companies on the planet. Where is your god now?

>Idiot trying to justify why he fails at cast iron

>>11608802

Binge.

>>11608807
I don't fail at it because I don't use it. Just like I don't user wood fire to cook my food. Too much of a hassle I don't have time to do that neet shit

>>11604722
actually food sticks to the pan

>>11608823

>Too much of a hassle

Ah, the perennial bleat of the brainlet. What a dulcet refrain...

This is what happens when you don't preheat on medium low heat or don't preheat at all. You need a somewhat even temperature of around 375-400°F which is coincidentally the point at which the Leidenfrost effect occurs.

You can actually tell when you reach this temperature by sprinkling water droplets on the surface of your pan.

A.) Droplets bubble: nowhere near ready.

B.) Droplets sizzle and evaporate in seconds: almost.

C.) Droplets skid along the surface but don't evaporate: pan is properly preheated and ready to accept oil/butter

D.) Droplets explode into even smaller droplets: too hot, turn dow the heat satan

The reason you DON'T want to use high heat to preheat is because it will create nasty 500F° hotspots that will burn your food on contact and 300F° cold spots that will bite and hold onto food thereby creating a stuck on burnt mess.

>>11604722
Season your fucking shit, OP
Christ you're such a fucking faggot

>>11608823
>If you do something that requires a bit of skill you're a neet

>>11608913
Why should he have to season it when Pam spray exists and turns any pan into non-stick?
>i like doing more work to feel superior to people who were too smart to fall for the meme
oh, you're a retard

>>11608924
It doesn't take skill only time, I'm not neet I don't have time to tinker with pans ill just use something that just works

Must suck to be a wage slave and not have a salaried position with reasonable work hours and paid vacation time.

>>11608806
>this is too difficult for some people

>>11608941
>wageslave
Funny how your mind instantly associates lack of time with wageslaving. I'm going to the gym , having sex, hanging out with people, etc. Stay at home playing with your pans neet, you sure are friggin superior

>>11608953
>bragging about being a normalfag on 4channel.

>>11608941
5 minutes per meal means 15 minutes a day, 365 days means 91 hours a year tinkering with iron for literally no reason. Neet shit. I'm good.

I'll post a video shortly of the Leidenfrost effect, it's really cool when you think about it. Basically a little vapor cloud is formed under the water droplet that makes it float.

Why are you on a cooking board, cooking takes time regardless of what you do it on. And why are you spending time here if you are so busy that waiting 5mins for a pan to warm up is too much for you? Im also going to bet your an amerifat who microwaves shit and or doesnt cook at all.

>>11609020
Why are you on a cooking board if you don't cook on wood fire every day? Go eat microwaved shit!!!

>>11608982
Sorry for the shitty quality and if I trigger /pol/ in some of you but yeah the surface of my griddle is now 90% ready to cook food. Just a minute or two more and I can add butter and cook an egg without it sticking.

>>11604730
Become its king.

Too much work. Fukken dropped.

Doubtful, you need to learn how to interpret that kind of post here.

Imagine being proud of this

>>11608806

>His cast iron piece of shit needs to pre-heat for 5 minutes for being used just to fry an egg.

Fuck that i'd be done before that piece of old melted down brake rotor would be even warmed up.

>Cast iron fags will argue that this is acceptable

>>11609075
>Is so "busy" he can't enjoy simple tasks of making great food
Must suck to work 12 hour days.

>>11606552
also, this works better if you're using a gas range.

>>11609036
>nigger hands
now try that with an ice cube and film it

>>11609134
Nah, mexican. Now why would I cook an ice cube?

>>11609138
i want to see that cool effect you have there with an ice cube instead of water droplets

In fact I just cooked THREE eggs and wadaya know: NOTHING stuck. Learn to preheat your pans and you'll be just fine. C'mon /ck/, it's so easy a mexican can do it.

>>11609147
I no have ice cubes :(, just frozen coffee cubes.

>>11609154
See, nothing stuck. All I used was a paper towel to remove salt, pepper, and a little bit of oil left. No scrubbing necessary.

Eggs well done and absolutely delicious. And like a true mexican I have no clean plates ever.

>>11609110
I do much more than just work, keep heating pans boy, enjoy your 90 hours wasted

>>11609020
because this is where people come to be autistic about fast food

>>11609154
Is that a homemade corn tortilla or did you chimp out and buy packaged?

>>11609181
>hurr hurr hurr I don't have time to do things right so anybody who does is a loser
Man, you must be the most insufferable prick to deal with in real life.

>>11609230
I do things right, you are the one wasting 90 hours a day for no reason.

>>11609226
Homemade. I honestly can't stand the frozen premade ones, they always leave this revolting chemical aftertaste in my mouth. Making them is somewhat of a chore though, I usually make a batch of 30 tortillas on the weekend, freeze them, and reheat them during the week as needed. Takes about 2 hours.

>>11609154
>eggs burnt to shit with visible black residue
>overcooked
So this is the power of cast iron cuisine and Mexican intellectuals

>>11609252
Nope just browned, nothing burnt. I don't like slimmy eggs and the crunchy crispy fried outer edge goes really well with tortillas.

>>11608806
cook them in the oven sunny side up to be honest

>>11609247
Nice, you've just shattered the carefully manufactured image /pol/ built for me that spics are all lazy.

>>11609271
Well desu I do tend to let dishes pile up but I do always clean my cookware after using it. There are a lot of us who do laze around all day but it's mostly zoomers who think they're entitled to free stuff just because they were born citizens here.

>>11609240
>Do things right
>Can't take a few extra minutes to do things right

>90 hours a day
Obvious troll is obvious.
