He going in that blender

and once you’ve had fresh duck egg pasta, it’s very difficult to imagine any other sort of pasta

>>14779780
Get that shit dispenser off your counter NOW.

>>14779780
I dont know where mine are laying. I was finding 1-2 a day. No idea where they are.

>>14779793
we have cleaning products for these occasions
I couldn’t resist putting her up there to stand proudly over her eggs

>>14779791

So does it cause brain damage or what

>>14779787

>>14779831
profound
you might even start amassing enough gadgets to warrant having your own pasta box

>>14779805
What ratio of bread flour to semolina do you prefer?

>>14779780
I demand pictures of duck petting

>>14779846
so the way I learned it was 1:1 by volume
1 cup plus 1 cup and three eggs (chicken)
a duck egg is bigger but I’ve found 1/2 cup of flour per egg creates a nice dough and if it’s too wet it can be worked with a little more bread flour
there’s nothing worse than trying to hydrate dry pasta dough you might as well start over

>>14779780
Oh here we go with this colossal faggot again. No robo cock today?

>>14779780
Are ducks assholes like geese are?

>>14779874
she’s taking the day off
but as always glad you could be here with us, sweetie

>>14779780

CUTE

>>14779879
much better temperament
they tolerate being handled but prefer to be left alone most of the time

>>14779890
Are ducks' assholes like geese are?

>>14779894
smaller vent

>>14779866
Thanks. I saved your comment. I like making pasta too. No duck eggs though.

>>14779903
a chicken is fine too

now we’ll leave the dough to relax for a while so we can move onto other things

I can eat fried eggs scrambled etc etc
but the smell of egg pasta and the bowl after you' whisked eggs.....

>>14779849
they’re not the greatest fans of being handled

one of the great privileges of buying a whole ribeye is that you can vacuum seal the trim to freeze and when you feel like having a nice hearty dinner just pop the bag into the sous vide

>>14779780
Show us your Supreme Champion.

>>14779881
Gotta make sure someone calls you a faggot, wouldn't want you to bail on the thread again. Also, happy to be here bb.

this is a good time to ensure there’s no gristly bits left in there

>>14779954
in hindsight she could have been called on to help with these mushrooms but I like to keep my knife skills sharp

>>14779780
I appreciate all the duck and gooseposting that's been happening on this board recently. Poultry gang

get the onions working and then it’s time to start thinking about rolling some pasta

>>14779780
Don't they get pissed off when you eat their young?

>>14779953

>>14780035
I think poultry are too stupid to even care

>>14779780
This makes me feel so sad: I've discovered duck eggs 2 years ago and I love them.
1 year ago I suddenly developed an allergy to them. This is my first allergy, at the age of 27, never even had any intolerance before.

cute thread op ( ^ :

>>14780035
A duck would probably get upset if you ate its duckling, but eggs aren't fertilized unless you had the animal get fucked by a rooster/mallard.

>>14780066
oh we’re just getting started here
but thanks

>>14780035
Ive butched ducks in front of other ducks. They dont care one bit. Not that Im this guy. I dont have a pasta maker.

they see me rollin’

for nice thick noodles we’ll stop at #4

>>14780078 there he is

>>14779899
>all that duck shit on the eggs
Do duckfags really? Does the concept of washing off your raw agricultural product mean nothing to you?

>>14780129
I had to save him from the bag

>>14779780
That Vienna Beef poster takes me back to the gyros place in my hometown, long since gone. I still miss it. They had the best coupons.

>ducks around the kitchen literally next to you cooking
Must be the tranny hormones from your sous vide soycooking. Enjoy plastic trannydom and disease and paraasites

>>14780152
Guy who asked about flour ratios again: All right... That looks very good. That's a bit better than me on my best day. Must try your suggestion.

>>14780129
what is this?

>>14780212
>>14780212

And what does your hot pocket come wrapped in again? Kent Micronite filter paper?

comfy thread. keep going OP

>>14780216
wetter is better with pasta dough
you can always lay out the sheets on the counter to dry out a bit

>>14779881
Mmm eggs

>>14780291
I'll see your negativity and contrarianism, and raise you this:

https://youtu.be/IPOnn9EBX74

don’t forget about the onions!

one of the great privileges of buying 5lbs of peeled garlic cloves is that you can slow roast the whole lot and then divide into smaller containers to freeze so you always have roasted garlic ready to use

>>14780227

>>14780383
You just made this entire thread worth it.

noodles are drying comfortably

for my next trick, I shall prepare a roux
I like to make a very slack roux, about 2:1 ratio by weight, the benefit to this being it doesn’t require constant stirring at very low heat
this tiny skillet is pretty much only ever used for roux production

>>14780716
I see you have a Kitchenaid Stand mixer. I had one, too, and when it burned out, (Cheap plastic gears cover) I bought a Globe SP-5. It has the same accessory drive for use with grain mill etc.

>>14780758
The duck and chick in your earlier pictures aren't real. They're either fake or stuffed.

>>14780786
that’s the (supposedly) nice 5qt one too
I’ve had it since 2003 but I went through 4 mixers right out of the gate
they all took a shit almost immediately there must’ve been some quality control issues (and plastic gears) but kitchenaid was good about sending me a new mixer every time

next step involves setting your onions on fire

>>14780814
I like the SP-5. It's quiet, quite powerful and nicely made. So if yours takes a crap again, you might consider changing up.

>>14780830
going strong for 17 years
desu it’s not used too often these days

>>14780813
the duck is very real and quacks
the duckling is very made out of felt

>>14780922
I'm trying to bait you into posting more duck pictures, so just fucking do it

>>14779780
Are you the same duck anon that hates vegans and plastic and always posts the decapitated duck, or a different duck anon?

>>14780978
I don’t hate vegans, I just think they are prolly missing a chromosome or something
plastic is just okay with me
I would never harm a duck though

>>14780084
is he ok

>>14780988
Oh, then you are a different duck anon! I think she hates them because a lot of them use plastic, which is her enemy.

>>14781004
life is too short to get hung up on petty shit

>>14779780
How many ducks are required to make it, bros?

>>14780992
no, hes stuck in a traffic cone

don’t forget to stir the roux!

>>14781024
if a duck and a half can lay an egg and a half in a day and a half...it will take one duck three days to provide for this recipe

the roux will darken
keep stirring

one of the great privileges of making your own beef stock is that you can add it to damn near anything when you need to

Does anyone else like these Chinese duck eggs? I pick some up every time I go to an Asian grocery store.

yank the roux off the heat
it’ll continue to darken a bit more

>>14781150
What's the second pot for?

>>14781283
side work tonight is caramelizing 10lbs of onions
red pot is for boiling water

>>14780084
hey it's the upside down cone duckposter

one of the great privileges of buying a packet of dill seeds once is that you’ll never buy dill again for the rest of your life if you’ve planted them in a good spot and you never plan to move

>>14781186
Oops, forgot my pic lads

>>14780067
Male ducks are called Drakes fyi

>>14781411
this guy ducks

add your roux and bring to the simmer

>>14781450
Still watching....

>>14781464
it will be ready soon so hopefully you brought you appetite
when the sauce has thickened, turn off the heat

and boil the pasta in heavily salted water
I had a chef tell me once it should be salty like ocean water

>>14781471
Virtual dining is not my thing, so I made breaded mashed potato cakes, made a thick sauce out of the left over chuck roast we had last night, along with the remaining peas. used a cast iron chicken pan to lightly deep fry the cakes, poured the sauce overtop.

Pumpkin pie for dessert, with whipped cream.

Was a good "leftovers meal".

>>14781483
thoroughly enjoying this

stir in a hearty amount of sour cream
or smetana if you can find it

>>14781471
you made this days ago, you liar.

>>14781424
Not yet but I'd love to some day, when I have the land for it.

and fold in your ribeye

>>14781509
who told you?

stir the noodles to keep them from sticking together
nice thick noodles like these take about 12 minute to cook after the water returns to the boil

>>14781529
the 10lbs of onions

one of the great privileges of having duck-shaped bowls is that you can sample your cooking in style while you complete your dinner

Is there any difference in flavor between duck and chicken eggs?

>>14781573
duck eggs are richer, more golden yolk
I mean an egg is an egg, but a nice fresh egg is really something special

I LOVE THIS THREAD.

>>14781557
those onions aren’t talking

>>14781573
Duck eggs have more of a meaty, gamey taste than chicken eggs.

>>14781590
this looks good as fuck

>>14781589
you’re too kind

>>14781594
thank you for watching

>>14781604
thanks for the thread op. see you in the next one, faggot.

Yeah well, ratio asker, SP-5 guy still here. That was a nice thread.

I'll definitely be trying your pasta method this week. Thanks for the demonstration, I really like your cookware. Be well.

Very inspirational, anon. Looks delicious.

>mushrooms, onions, and duck eggs
Why does this feel so... earthy?

>>14781841
Because QUACK!

Gooo looking comfort food

Nice work once again op, keep the onion gent safe for the next thread

>>14779894
No, they are pretty chill
If they get mad at you they try and peck you, but realize thier beak is soft, so they kick you too.

>>14782853
I’ve not figured what to do with him just yet, but knew it was important to clip him from the bag
these are his onions here, cooked for roughly 4 hours

I’m a DCfag who goes out his way to see and feed ducks. They’re my favorite animal. How do I into my own duck farm, frens?

>>14780134
Unwashed eggs last longer. You typically wash them right before using.

>>14783292
Check your local laws regarding farm animals and zoning. My township in the burbs allows you to keep up to 6 hens or ducks for egg laying for non-commercial. Many towns don't allow roosters because they're loud. You can keep ducks in a simple coop/tractor like chickens, just make sure they have a little areas to swim, like a kiddie pool. Also there's no way around it, they're way dirtier than chickens.

>>14779780
>>14780049
How often do you let him see the sun?

>>14783389
Thanks, fren. Once I meet and marry a woman here in DC, I’ll move to the burbs to breed her and then start my own duck farm.

>>14780971
ducks get a nice salad of kale, peas, & cucumbers every morning

>>14783389
>they're way dirtier than chickens.
This should be stressed in a big way. Their water requirements are greater than chickens too because they like to swim. And they will make their pond nasty in a hurry. Ducks also tend to be less tolerant to extreme heat, and because of their large webbed feet should have plenty of straw to walk in when it’s freezing to prevent frostbite. Ducks have better personality over chickens but they’re substantially more work. There’s a reason chickens are farmed on an industrial scale and ducks not do much.

>>14783422
what breed are your ducks? is there any particular reason you chose them over something like campbells?

>>14779894
I can't compare the two. Never tried it with a goose, they are way too aggressive.

>>14783292

1.) Dig hole in backyard
2.) Buy pond liner from eBay
3.) Layout pond liner in dug whole
4.) Fill with water
5.) Borrow ducks from park

Profit? Enjoy your duck poop everywhere

>>14783554
>Borrow ducks from park

Isn't that i-i-illegal?

>>14783039 what are those for?

>>14783422 they're living the good life

>>14783493
they’re free ducks that were a gift when the idiot who bought ducklings realized she couldn’t keep them in her apartment
best guess is that they’re swedish crested, because of their silvery grey feathers and crest on top of their heads
being a crested duck, there’s likelihood that they’re mule ducks and are sterile but they each lay almost once per day and we get about 500 eggs per year which is a lot for just 2 ducks

>>14779791
I just tried to clean out my shitty meglio pasta maker and I can't figure out how to get the scrapers back on. It's killing me and making me question my masculinity.

>>14783579
>what are those for?
just a pantry item
it’s useful to have caramelized onions laying around

>they're living the good life
those ducks don’t know how good they’ve got it

>>14780084
Kind of surprised. My ducks shit down when one of them dies. We lost one to an infection like 3 months ago, and the rest wouldn’t let me retrieve her body to bury her. When I finally did they refused to eat for like a week. I had to tube a few of them. Maybe Pekins are different

>>14780084
>>14783619
Well, the duck that was butchered in that photo is clearly a different species than the rest of the ducks in the background. Maybe ducks only care if one of their own are butchered... Just a thought.

Show the pool

>>14783571
>falling for (((their))) lies

He’s probably called duckanon but I want to call him privledgeanon. It’s a shame ducks usually don’t get as tame as chickens.

>>14779780
and then you can eat her when she is barren

>>14783629
Ducks do form cliques but they're not necessarily along species lines.

>>14784563
By then she'll be a tough and stringy as old boots.

>>14783629
>>14784725
Most ducks, chickens, geese, and turkeys do just fine as a mixed herd, and some homesteads keep a large goose with their hens to deter predators. Only time separation is important is for chicks with their brooding mothers. They obviously can't tolerate cold weather as well and need access to food and water.

Aren't you the same psycho who killed one of your ducks because it had an injured leg?

>>14786160
Shh ck is anti vegan and only sees animals as tasty steak, we aren't allowed to comment on it

>>14786614
People eat animals, cry me a river.
>>14786160
Nope, that's not me. I have a proper slaughter system. I slaughter the ducks because I wanted unsexed and I got way more males than females. I don't see anything wrong with quickly killing an animal that had a good life.

>>14786730
The problem isn’t you it’s everyone else. The aesthetic of where food comes from is too much for some. It’s all good and well to like to eat meat but when you show a picture of an animal bleeding out suddenly you become a pariah.

>>14787281
I think thats kind of the problem. It's a bit different seeing an animal die in real life than to see it on video or a photo. Especially in those propaganda videos that have convert people to veganisim the way the birth of a nation converted folks to klansmen

>>14788901
So you're literally comparing veganism with the KKK?

>>14783419
Maryland burbfag here, one of our neighbors kept chickens for years with no problem so you should be able to keep a duck or a few.

>>14786730
He replied and admitted he kills them shhh everyone be quiet about his treatment of animals he only sees dollar signs

>>14789828
Lol what should he do you dumb faggot just let the duck live a life of suffering? Prolly cant even swim w/o a leg but you didnt think of that. Thats your problem. You dont think.

>>14789645
Yeah you're right. Veganism has killed far more people then the KKK has.

>>14789645
I mean, when you really sit and think about it, they do kind of have a lot in common. They both compare black people and jews to animals.

>>14789671
I'm guessing MoCo?

>>14779780
mah nigga

>>14780032
oh no. CK associates soi with onions and not soibeans

>>14780084
The fuck am I looking at

>>14789945
>>>14789645
>Yeah you're right. Veganism has killed far more people then the KKK has.

Based. Libtards are all violent psychopaths.

>>14790349
That's the word filter, not an actual board meme you absolute newfag.

>>14781483
There you go baby yeah just like that

>>14779780
Based duck

>>14790417
wow there are varying degrees of new faggotry and I am the most pure; nay, the absolute.

>>14780049
Is that a real duck? The mouth is black. Why it doesn't move?!

>>14790218
Yeah

Great thread, finally some real non cringey cooking. Say hi to the duckies.
Are the steel countertops worth it? I prefer granite because it wont dent or scratch so easily but I have considered installing an area with stainless steel to work on dough and chocolate

>>14780084
based, this thread was great

>>14781483
>I had a chef tell me once it should be salty like ocean water
You must follow the advice only if you enjoy horribly salty pasta.

>>14790939
I fucking knew it lol knew a girl in high school who kept goats
