I'll start: How do you guys prevent oil from popping/splattering when you're pan frying?

What can I do to cut the saltiness of cured meat

>>12595991
Reduce the amount of moisture in what it is you're lowering into the pan. If it's outright popping you're outright doing it wrong.

>>12596229
Something acidic goes well with salty foods. I like to eat olives with salty cured meat.

>>12596239
Thanks, that's probably it. It only pops if I'm doing certain things and I think it's because of the water.

>>12595991
recently I made a very dumb mistake. took a pan out of drawer, quickly washed it but didn't dry it properly. covered it with oil and turned on the heat. suddenly it started to pop like a motherfucker. the
guess the air gets trapped under oil, so it boils and needs to escape, that's when it pops.

>>12596509

how do i make fried rice that tastes like a chinese food place

If lesbians don't like dick, then why do they use dildos shaped like dicks?

>>12597435
They don't like what's attached to the dick, I suppose.

>>12597435
Dykes love cock. Most of them are just angry that the cock they want aren't interested in them. Think about it, women are creatures who are happy to put a dick in their mouth. In fact nothing makes them happier than pleasing somebody else. What is licking a smelly clam when you can't even pull a greasy loser to let you bob on his knob?

>>12596239
well yes, but also, no

when properly searing, say a piece of chicken, inevitably some of the chicken juice will start to leak out, even if properly brined and patted dry before cooking
additionally, deglazing a pan will ALWAYS lead to spatter, if said pan is properly heated
if i think it’s going to spatter, I cook in a deeper pan, even a dutch over; i have a mesh spatter guard but it isn’t perfect and you have to remove it periodically to flip the meat, etc so spatter still goes all over

>>12597414
Use day old rice and leftover oil with lots of grease

>>12597414
Do you not know how to make it, or just not able to get the taste you want?

Alright lads, I made a thread earlier about cooking a steak and it set the smoke alarm off.
I just now tried to cook a chicken breast and the same thing happened. My roommates think I'm some kind of fucking weirdo now.
The thing is, the steak and the chicken breast didn't come out bad, but the amount of smoke was excessive. The whole downstairs is filled with smoke right now.
There's no exhaust fan anywhere and it sets the smoke alarm off every time.
How can I continue to cook meat like this? What other options or techniques do I have?

>>12598480
wtf do you cook with? maybe you use a wrong kind of oil you shouldn't cook with?

>>12598596
I use this

>>12598609
I'd never fry in that, the smoke point is likely too low. they have different oil fit for high heat. but in any case, get different oil with higher smoke point, olive is risky.

I'm getting better at making Penang-style curries however I'm missing something that I can't place compared with the ones I get in restaurants. What could be missing? My ingredients are:
Coconut milk
chicken stock
onion
lemongrass
garlic
ginger
chilli powder
star anise
fish/oyster sauce
Bay leaves
Potatoes
coriander
turmeric
green beans
carrots
sugar
curry power
salt

There's a certain tang that isn't present in mine but they're still delicious.

>>12597414
mix 2:1 soy sauce to oyster sauce + 1 tsp toasted sesame oil, you'll need about half a cup total per 3 cups rice.

>>12598703
kaffir lime lime leaves

>>12597446
So they would love trannies then

>>12598777
Thanks bro. I'll order some.

Anyone got any good additions to chillis for maximum tastiness?

I generally just use beef, beans, peppers, stock, tomatoes, chilli powder and garlic.
What can spice them up?

>>12598894
dark cocoa and/or coffee.

Whatever happened to that anon who was a butcher, and would come by and talk meat cuts and give advice? Has he been by lately?

>>12598894
Cumin?

>>12598894
Cocoa powder, cumin, paprika, a bit of cinnamon, and more salt. I also add beer to mine.

>>12601699

>>12598634

Do I have to go to an Asian market to get sesame paste? I couldn't find it at any of my regular grocery spots. Also, should I be going to ethnic markets anyways or is the ethnic aisle of my regular grocery store good enough? I want to support local businesses and buy more authentic food but I'm embarrassed go go inside because I'm white.

>>12601803
fucking hell poor Americans starving
do you have spare $5? go and buy some corn oil.

>>12601827
I too get extremely self conscious when buying at the local Asian mart. But no one else around here sells squid or octopus... Or any sushi grade fish for that matter.
