/ck/ - Food & Cooking

When I was growing up we'd bury a bucket in the sand so that the lip was flush with the ground and then throw a chicken bone or whatever in and in the morning it would literally be overflowing.

Yes. We were all 3 once. Don't you have a Wiggles album you should be listening to in bed?

Too small unless they’re soft shell

>>18706678
If they're small enough the shell shouldn't be too thick regardless. We used to dig up the little sand crabs as kids, which made me wonder:
>In some cultures, sand crabs are eaten as a popular snack, such as in Thailand. They are often prepared via shallow frying in a pan or deep frying in batter. The taste is often described as falling somewhere between that of shrimp and crab.
Oh shit, I know what I'm cooking next time I visit the coast!

>>18706599
So when seabirds look at a patch of sand from 20 different angles before plunging their beaks, they aren't no scoping a 1-in-a-million killshot? They're just building suspense around a sure thing?

>>18706599
have you never been fishing before? You can fish from a pier without a fishing license, and for everything else that needs a license, you can fish your limit every day. for $28 a year, you can get as much fish as you want.

eating baby crabs is bad it prevents them growing up so we get to eat big crabs
it's shortsighted

Lobsters used to be considered trash food and was fed to prisoners. The reason they're expensive now is because of unregulated consumption and over-harvesting. The human population is way, way, way too large these days to allow for unregulated harvesting of transportable food items without driving them extinct.

You can fry these guys and eat the shell too, it is free calcium.

>>18713997
Lobsters actually have grown in population in the last 100 years, look up, it will be hard to exterminate then all.

>>18714272
>it will be hard to exterminate then all.
Americans exterminated 90% of the bering sea crab population in a year. I think we can do lobsters.

>>18714272
>actually have grown in population
Yeah, thanks to regulations.

would a seafood broth be a viable source of nutrients in a survival situation?
that + what little meat you could get out of them

>>18714382
how'd you get a picture of my ex's crotch

>>18706599
How much meat can you get from those crabs? Doesn't seem to be worth the effort over a nice big dungeness crab

What if you just boil a whole bunch of them whole? Would they make a good broth?

>>18706599
These are free and plentiful where I grew up. They grew on anything submerged in water long enough. They grew in the hundreds along all the docks where I grew up. Just boil them and you've got free protein.

>>18716738
jesus christ at least let them shit their guts out in clean fresh water for a few hours you fucking subhuman

I don't trust eating anything from nature that hasn't been regulated by human production. Nature's full of poisons and diseases.

you can definitely use a bunch of little guys, even if they're muddy, just look at south asian stuff and their use of mud crabs (some can actually get pretty big). you just treat them different, but personally i think most folks prefer the bigger guys with more meat. but as the other anon said, letting them filter themselves out for a bit can help for sure

>>18717630
what is that

>>18716764
I grew up in California and did this as well once. Cooked a huge batch while camping with friends, absolutely delicious and no effort to harvest.
Only later did we learn that we got lucky as hell, because for large parts of the year you're likely to die soon after consumption from neurotoxin(s) they accumulate. We harvested right around the transition point, but all went well.

>>18718118
I bet if you look into it, that's less likely than people made it seem. Just like how undercooked pork will definitely give you worms and if you touch raw chicken and then lick your fingers you're definitely gonna get sick. It's like how trump or Alex Jones talk. There's truth in it, but how much and where?
How I figure? I did a lot of disgusting shit as a kid including drinking creek water that ran off from a graveyard

>>18718140
Fuck it I don't live there anymore. North valley Rd Pottsgrove Pennsylvania. If you maps it, there's a graveyard and wooded area on one side of that road. I used to drink that run off regularly as it was the hangout as kids where we'd make campfires and blow shit up

Reminds me of this time I got crabs from a 20 dollar hooker. I came up to her on her corner and said "bitch you gave me crabs". She said "it was 20 dollars, what did you expect? Lobster?"

Why must crabs suffer so much? They are hard done by. I feel for them.

>>18718188
Nobody feels for how hard I've been done

>>18711406
pussy

>>18714370
Nah mate the regulations were bullshit, they always would've exploded in population. There's auxiliary eggs on the seafloor that hatch only when the ppm of lobster hormones in the water decreases.

>>18713803
Lol. Lmao even.

>>18718140
>>18718157
Yeah I think you're right that the danger is overstated, although neurotoxins are effective at very low doses, and I'd much rather get salmonella than suffer from neurotoxin symptoms, such as death.
Although I have to say, you really dodged a bullet not being from Fagleysville.

>lobsters are prisoner food
They were always considered fine food, transporting them anywhere was, however, basically impossible. This is why they gave dead/rotting lobster flesh to prisoners.

>Lobsters used to be considered trash food and was fed to prisoners. The reason they're expensive now is because of unregulated consumption and over-harvesting.

The settlers considered them trash food because lobsters were so plentiful that they would wash up on the beach with every wave.
You have to remember that the settlers were religous extremists and had all sorts of weird hangups about food. Salmon, for example, was considered absolute trash because it could be fished in any river back home for free and without tax. Only the poorest of the poor would suffer the indignity of eating salmon.

Once the colonies were more established and the rich started to vacation here, lobster was an exotic delicacy and every expense was made to export it back to the motherland.
This included canning, and a lot of second rate canned lobster was indeed fed to prisoners. Prisoners did complain about this as inhumane, but that is because they were eating canned lobster for every meal, every day.

>>18711406
cum

>>18717617
is she okay?

>>18719633
Lobster was also fed to the POWs who were digging out Portsmouth during the Napoleonic wars. So no, it wasn't just the religious extremists in the new world who thought they were trash.

>>18719633
> a lot of second rate canned lobster was indeed fed to prisoners. Prisoners did complain about this as inhumane, but that is because they were eating canned lobster for every meal, every day.
Even before canning, lobsters were usually killed ahead of time and stored dead to make meals with, the way you would a pig or chicken. They didn't realize that lobster meat goes rotten in a few hours if it isn't cooked. Eventually it became standard practice to boil lobsters alive, but until then they were feeding prisoners rotten mushy lobster

>>18707279
Does that mean prawn doesnt go well with goonbag sucking?

have you eaten sand crabs? Are they any good?

>>18720717
I want to read more about this it's very interesting

>>18722527
they're just so small that the amount of meat you're getting is basically nothing. Blue crabs already ride that line of too little meat for too much effort. There's a reason soft shell crab season is so popular

'Literally' as a hyperbolic form of 'figuratively'.
'Overflowing' in place of 'Full' or 'Over full'.

The rules of American football are a microcosm of the rules of the English language. They're designed to confuse and dissuade outsiders - only compounded by the dialects of the language and the addition of the CFL - which just seems to attract said outsiders. It's Fight Club syndrome with centuries of fermentation behind it, and nothing good can come from this miasmic, ludo-linguistic sourdough starter... So who wants that torched flammekueche recipe?
