/ck/ - Food & Cooking

lmao.
I think I used to accidentally do this to asian people too before I learned how not to be an accidental racist. Never with cheese though.

Everyone knows risotto is just Italian fried rice!

That's a kind of sweet awkward food story.

When my brother and i were 12-14, visiting relatives in Greece, we were told customary manners were to accept the first or second thing offered to you on a visit. It was a "let's make a deal" dilemma, having a bad option, but not knowing what the second option would be. Once we experienced the horror that was ouzo, an anise-flavored spirit that tasted like black licorice, with the throat-burning warmth of an 80 proof shot, accepting any non-ouzo offering became the best strategy.

its like the vietnamese people who opened an italian restaurant around the corner, hope that place closes soon

>go to the baddest Sushi bar downtown for my friend's birthday
>His cousin is there
>Sit down next to him
>Everyone orders soup first, then I get a tuna roll
>Despite the food being very authentic Japanese he orders a California roll
>mfw
>pick up my sushi with my fingers
>cousin yells "the fuck!?"
>before I can turn around he slaps the sushi out of my hand
>"you're at a Japanese restaurant you dumbfuck you gotta eat it with chopsticks that's disrespect asshole"
>mfw again
>too beta to respond
>start eating it with chopsticks
>can't look up anymore, staff is probably either giggling at me or embarassed

>>4534536
It's actually acceptable to eat sushi with your fingers.
That being said, they all probably laughed at you anyway.

>be japanese
>go to a japanese restaurant
>miso soup comes before meal
>wat

>>4534553
...I take it that's not normal?

>>4534536
Your friend's cousin is an idiot, if anything the staff were probably laughing at him. Sushi is pretty much finger food.

>>4534552
>It's actually acceptable to eat sushi with your fingers.

Yes, that's what this guy>>4534536
was doing. You're always supposed to eat sushi with your fingers

>>4534536
>that's disrespect

god, for some reason I read that in Eddie Murphy's voice, like when he was Mushu in Mulan saying "dishonor."

>>4534557
i mean, japanese people are accustomed to getting the rice, miso soup and the main dish at the same time although its not any kind of mannerism. its just weird to only get miso soup and wait for the rest of your meal. i also worked at a sushi restaurant during my college years and i remember my boss told me to serve the miso soup first if the customer was american.

>>4534574
I submit that the American tradition of miso first is superior. It can be served immediately with little effort, which acts as an appetizer as the chef prepares the sushi. Once served sushi, I can't imagine switching between miso soup and sushi... its not like those are great parings for the same course or anything.

>>4534451

......Are you my sister?

I cooked fried rice using oilve oil before. it didnt taste TOO bad to me. just use the right amount

>be 8-10 year old Asian
>visit white friends' houses
>their parents ALWAYS try to accommodate me
>nice in gesture, but a little excessive

White friend 1's house:
>"Mom, what's for dinner?"
>"Since Anon's here, how about we order Chinese takeout?"

White friend 2's house:
>chicken & broccoli with rice
>friend's mom gives me an extra helping of rice
>also gives me a bottle of soy sauce to use

White friend 3's house:
>spaghetti for dinner
>table is completely set up and everything
>"Anon, your seat is over here"
>assume there's some kind of pecking order at the family dinner table or something
>nope, the only thing different about my seat is that I get chopsticks instead of a fork

White friend 4's house:
>friend's dad orders a pizza
>"Hey anon, are you okay with pizza?"
>"Of course I am, Mr. Jones, I love pizza."
>"Are you sure? I read somewhere that orientals have sensitive stomachs that can't handle cheese and red meats very well."

I am not even offended. I just feel like shaking my head.

>>4534614

It's like, you can't be mad at them because they honest to god mean well. But still man, what the fuck?

>>4534614
I would have kind of gotten offended at those last two. I'm half mexican, and I can't help but feel like it would be like my white friend's parents serving a normal meal, but giving me refried beans and salsa instead of say, fries and ketchup.

>>4534614

I wish I had brought some of my asian friends over for dinner as a kid to see what my parents would've done.

>>4534614
lol friend 3's family is gloriously racist.

>>4534617
>>4534622
Seeing as this happened in the 90s, this was considered normal.

If any modern-day family did this to an Asian kid, shit would hit the fan.

>>4534536
I'm now trying to think of anime where sushi is eaten and if they use chopsticks or their hands.

Fuck, I rarely see sushi in anime.

>>4534596
Well the thing is you never really eat miso soup with sushi, it would just be awkward. It's just become popular to serve miso soup in sushi bars for some reason.

But yeah, you drink miso soup with the rest of your food. I'm a sushi chef and we do that at work for our family meals. It's seriously legit.

>>4534536
>mom works at a sushi restaurant
>does this "prank" where she'll tell the kitchen staff to add one extra piece to a customer's order (so let's say a menu item has 12 pieces; she'll tell them to make it 13)
>bring food out to customers
>takes a piece of sushi/sashimi from the dish and eats it in front of them
>most customers laugh their asses off
I don't get it either.

>>4534639
Eating sushi with chopsticks would be kind of like eating a burrito with a knife and fork. Acceptable, but kind of weird.

Unless it's one of those burritos where they cover it with queso and guacamole and shit. Those are fucking awesome, but you've gotta use a knife and fork.

Unless you're hardcore.

>>4534649
in japan people eat sushi with either their fingers or chopsticks theres no such thing as table manners for how people eat sushi. especially with children, they especially like to use their fingers. i personally use chopsticks because i dont want fish fingers after i'm done eating. i swear, table manners in japan arnt as serious as they were 20 years ago with an exception of few rules like passing food between chopsticks or stabbing chopsticks in your rice bowl. these are things i still cringe when i see it.

>be asian
>friends are talking about going home for thanksgiving, christmas, 4th of july, etc
>talk about having a bomb-ass dinner or BBQ
>wait anon, you're asian. do you even celebrate *insert holiday*?

I've thought about this a lot and realized being asian has nothing to do with celebrating a holiday and have no idea why the fuck they think that.

>>4534666
>complaining about how I have a ton of leftover turkey from thanksgiving?
>"I thought Asians didn't celebrate thanksgiving!"
>"Well, you're kind of right. My people may be known for a lot of things, but giving natives small pox isn't one of them."
That shut him up.

>>4534688
Don't be that asshole.

>Every Asian ever
>complains about cheese
>gets pissy when you don't like salted plum or whatever

>>4534614
Oh god, accidental racism is hilarious

Only a nigger would think he's better than both whites and Asians.

>>4534756
i agree, but how is that relevant?

>>4534757
You're a nigger, that's how. Unless you're a spic, then you're even worse.

>go to black friend's house
>"my grandma makes the best fried chicken!"
>of course she does.

>>4534760
But I'm a spic, and I freely recognize that there's no such thing as real "traditional" mexican food. At least, very little that tastes good. I mean, you've got menudo, tacos de lengua, and chaupulines, but the main reason the spanish names for those stuck around is because most gringos would go "EWWW" if they knew what they were.

>>4534760

>>4534662
>i swear, table manners in japan arnt as serious as they were 20 years ago

they're still there though. when we were eating in the tiny restaurant of this elderly lady on the outskirts of tokio, my gf got seriously scoffed at for her apparently horrid taste in men when i stupidly poured a cup of soy sauce over my rice.
most of the time the japanese just tend to keep quiet about these types of dishonorable insults. baka gaijins etc.

>>4534781
Well, that's understandable - an elderly lady would follow the older customs.
If she was 25-30, it probably wouldn't have been so bad.

Not exactly food related, but asian related:

>Work at a sushirestaurant
>Have a coworker who is korean, but have lived here her entire life so she speak my language fluently
>Have another colluege who's from romania, have a bit of accent

>One day a costumer enters and ask for a table they had reserved, told us that she spoke with a person with heavy accent and automaticly points at my korean colluege
>For some reason this was just funny as hell and all the waiters crack up

>>4534408
Lol got a similar one

> be mexican,
> dating white italian american girl
> invited over for dinner hoping for pasta or egplant parm
> whats your mom making babe?
> taco soup
> taco what? Is it a taco or a soup?
> youll like it its good
> its pretty much chicken soup with pieces of tortilla instead of noodles and tons of cumin and cayenne
> eat with bread its pretty good
> ask gfs mom for recipe
> wow im suprised you dont know it already anon i was told your family cooks very authentic mexican food

>>4534781
That's not even a manners things so much as cringing.

Pouring a "cup" of soy sauce, as you put it, on rice, is tantamount to taking a ladle to a jar of mayonnaise and putting a heaping scoop of it onto bread.

Of course most Asians will understand that white people will find rice a little bit bland. A light drizzle of soy sauce *might* be okay with them. But nothing that would saturate the everloving shit out of it.

>>4534603
>......Are you my sister?
I'm male, so no. Nice to know we weren't unique in this suffering this ordeal. We also learned to nurse an ouzo over the course of the visit...if you rushed to get it over with, you'd get a refill!

>>4534771
Completely false. Southern mexican good is a fucking delicacy loved by cultureless swines known as gringos. Tostadas, chicarron, man, you're so full of shit. Are you a chicano, ese? Have you never experienced your culture or why the fuck are you letting this hick talk shit on you?

Americans pretend they're white, lmao, hilarious

>>4534810
to my defense, it was just the left-over sauce from one of those tiny dipping scales, into the left-over rice.
considering my chopstick-fu is practically non-existent, it was the best way i could come up with for using up both.

i know better now.

>>4534771

>Any other awkward story is really just related to how skinny I was as a kid and how people thought McDonalds was some kind of treat even though I've always hated fast food and while I grew up poor, ordering pizza is not special

>>4534851
I laughed

well, anyway "taco soup" is no way to describe it.

like a taco of queso en salsa is not "pizza taco"

>>4534647
Sounds like a good way to get food from work.

>>4534642
I never knew that before. Interesting.

Now I feel some of that white man's guilt about typically ordering miso soup as an appetizer haha.

>>4534614

Real talk incoming.

I grew up in an area that was mostly asian. Whenever I had to go over to classmates houses to finish a project, they would tell me: you have to leave after x hours, because you're white. My parents don't want you here.

Also at trendy asian restaurants people turn towards me and my family and start muttering racist things like 'why are they here'. News flash: my family was here before you.

Fucking PC bullshit. YOU are the racist.

>tfw no average foreign qt3.14 girlfriend to cook for me ;_;

>>4535224
This is white privilege.

>>4534536

I'd kill him once for saying dumbfuck
and then a thousand times for wasting food because of some trivial shit like that.
God damn it, it rustles my jimmies

>>4534892
Rich people expecting me to be impressed at their overpriced prepackaged shit has always been hilarious to me. The only thing amazing about that bullshit is how much they'll pay for it.

When you're poor and you don't hate yourself enough to live on fast food you learn how to cook.

>live in dorm room
>Chinese neighbor has a huge crush on me
>she brings me cigarettes and shit every day because "she didn't need them"

why, the food wasn't even that good.

not an awkward story but these "let's take pictures of everything" food people suck

>>4535284
Oh god, I'm so afraid I'm going to do this when I visit another country, or even somewhere else in the states.
Alabamafag here, I don't have a thick accent, but I get sweet tea everywhere I go. I recently took a trip to New Orleans and asked for sweet tea at a restaurant. They said, "We have iced tea," and I gave them a look of incredulity. It's Louisiana breh...

Europeans love us southern boys for whatever reason. They seem more receptive to us than yankees

>>4535401
How the fuck does that work? I mean, Southern Americans are typically looked on as the icon of what's wrong with America in general, at least in the US. How does that not translate to the Europeans?

In fact, why do most countries have some kind of love/hate relationship between their Northern and Southern cultures?

But I live in Georgia. Just the other day I saw a bumper sticker reading "If you can't support our troops from behind, get on the front lines". Every time I go to a grocery market it's like a go-kart derby is being hosted with the number of scooters given to the obese who can't walk.

I mean, yeah, sure, this doesn't represent the entirety of the South, but these are the most major points that are used in insults towards Southerners in general.

I have a reverse awkward story.

>put a couple drops of soy sauce on
>asian friend freaks out like why would anybody ever put soy sauce on rice
>Clearly I dont know if thats legit or not
>mom goes "Yea how do you think they make fried rice"

To this day I dont know if this was legit or not. I dont think she knew how to cook and I dont think he knew how to eat.

Oh, is this an Asian childhood awkward food story thread now? Well, this doesn't really have anything to do with being Asian but

>be Asian, probably 8 years old
>eating at white friend's house

>it's that fucking purple ketchup Heinz made in the 90s

>>4535625

The term "sweet tea" doesn't mean anything generally in Europe. If you'd ask for sweet tea, you'd most likely get hot black tea with sugar on the side anywhere you go.

heres another restaurant, cheese covered Tok Bok Bi

>>4536018
>>4536027

Seems like they add cheese to fried chicken and tok bok gi. Typically, they have no cheese at all. Maybe they added it to appeal to non Asians since those dishes can be spicy.

>>4536046
Nope, according to Koreans i know cheese is often added to these dishes.

And i just told you Mook Ji Ba is the most korean korean restaurant you'll find in Melbourne. The food there is hot as fuck, barely any white people go.

>>4535715
Ur a dick. We like southern people because often they are very friendly or otherwise a hilarious stereotype.

Maybe in Australian Korean restaurants, but if you go to Korea, you'll have a hard time finding restaurants that use lots of cheese in their dishes. Those restaurants

Historically, the weather was too hot and humid to raise lots of cattle and land was scarce. Also, seeing as how many Asians, including Koreans, are lactose intolerant, Korean food just doesn't typically include cheese.

*Those restaurants that do are usually some sort of Korean fusion cuisine.

>>4536094
>people who complain about food being the tiniest bit spicy
I enjoy spicy food as long ass it doesn't overpower the flavor. I don't like to eat stuff that's more than moderately spicy around other people because it's awkward when I'm crying eating it (even though I enjoy it).

>>4536094
Fuck you, that only happen in shit countries like the US.

> be white
> go into Asian restaurant
> waitress puts silverware on the table
> see others eating with chopsticks
> feel sad

> go in restaurant
> given chopsticks right off the bat
> happy!
> mfw someone at the next table says 'Uh.... do you have any normal silverware?'

> go to restaurant
> silverware and cheap packaged chopsticks on the table
> happy medium
> wonder if they have to wash the silverware even if it's not used
> feel bad for their lost time and water/heating costs

I'm pretty good at eating with chopsticks. I understand the utensil thing when at a buffet though.

Also
> go into an Asian buffet as a little kid
> worker is at booth near front sort of in a less nice area eating lunch
> it's like a six inch high pile of plain rice on a plate
> he's shoveling in rice with chopsticks like a champ
> wat

I like the hot fried dough with sugar on top that buffets have.

>>4536096
*were
But no, the english were fucking pricks. I would go to ask something and as SOON as they heard my voice they would scoff and walk off. It was even worse when I tried to order food or trying to find a building.

>>4536125
That's just strange. Whereabouts in England were you? I'm English and I wouldn't be that rude (to your face).

>>4536132

London, I stayed away from the tourist section and visited all over. then worked my way to Scotland. I visited a few villages that were lovely. couldn't even say the fucking names correctly

>>4536125

English and British aren't synonyms. Scottish people are British too.

>>4535674

you should tell them you're actually american, they may not have noticed.

>>4536187
Yeah, I guess chicken eating all comes back to the phallic imagery of my tongue rubbing on that delicious chicken breast.

God I feel bad for women for not being able to eat chicken. How horrifying. Welp, better oppress them with my sandwich.

>>4535535
That's so weird... like >>4535621 said, the Asian people I know drink too damn much. One of the chefs I worked with had a large bottle of vodka under the cold line, and he'd drink half of one when he got home after work.
He was 5'3 and 130 pounds.

Le rebbit xd is leaking

> have few asian friends
> we all go to restaurant
> asian friends try to order dog meat
> staff is shocked and tell they don't serve dog meat
> asian friends demand dog meat
> say they are ready to pay any money
> start puting on the table hundrets of dollars

holly shit, you shoudl have seen the faces of staff. We visited like five restaurant. We got thrown out out of 3 of them. Idiots actually believed we wanted dog meat

They don't respect you, don't respect them

you're on /ck/ you fucking loser get with it

The problem with serving iced tea with sugar on the side is that it's fucking impossible to dissolve the sugar.

If you're making sweet tea, you have to put the sugar in while the tea is steeping and the water is hot.

Either that, or serve the iced tea with a syrup instead of just sugar.

>be a white boy
>miss ex girlfriend's home made korean food
>remember recipes, go to asian market
>only white person there
>no eye contact
>ask for korean ingredients
>harsh, NO. we out. No carry that. no.

tfw I realized it was a vietnamese market

why do asians hate all other asians?

>>4536108
>I like the hot fried dough with sugar on top that buffets have.
Nigger that shit is the bomb.

>Have girlfriend from India
>Mum cooks curry for her
>She doesn't even like curry
>The awkwardness
It's a funny story now though.

>Have Taiwanese stepmom, so even though I'm white, I pretty much know my stuff around Chinese food (she unwittingly turned all of us into chinese food snobs and she's a great cook)
>rely on her a lot to order for everyone at big ceremonies
It sucks that I can't go into a great Asian restaurant without getting weird looks when we're not with her. Going to Dim Sum and being the only white guy in there is fine, but you don't have to make me feel like I'm a freak of nature for liking food that isn't western.
I don't know shit about Korean food though, I've only heard it's not that special beyond BBQ.

London is like that. I only live 30 miles away, but when I visit and ask people for directions, they are well fucking rude. Its not an anti-tourist thing, its just that most Londoners are pricks.

>>4536551
Vietnamese people don't hate Koreans, or vice versa.

You are trying to fabricate a story around the, "no hot Korean gf" bullshit.

>have some friends around the world, met online
>decide to travell and meet two of them in Minsk (Belarus)
>travel together with another friend who lives nearby
>constantly make jokes about how many potatoes we're going to eat there
>arrive at one of the friend's flat in the evening,
>sister (whom we only heard on skype from time to time but never saw) makes us sit down at the table the minute we walk in
>starts to load the table with at least a dozen different meals
>all of them
>potatoes
>potatoes cooked that way, this way, upside down, sugar with a cherry on top, anything
>our friend is blushing like crazy because she starts an hour long babble how she's happy to worship the potato and be a proud member of some kind of Komsomol they have there
>concludes with a phrase like: «hope you liked dinner! I know you were expecting a lot of them!» (as in potatos).
>awkward like I don't even
Damn I miss those potatoes she cooked. So delicious.

>white
>in high school asian friends invited me to hang out
>drink tapioca for the first time
>get little balls stuck in throat
>friend asks what's wrong while I'm choking on the balls

>everyone is laughing

now I want some tapioca

> be me
> parents were post-WWII Polish immigrants

> placki kartoflane = "not again, mama!"
> my friends would almost run me over to get invited to dinner
> mfw they invited me to dinner at their house for meatloaf and mac & cheese

Wish I would have learned how to cook like Mom (she had no written recipes).

oklahoma anon again, just remembered another funny tidbit

>get invited to stay at a man's house, him and his entire family own a bed and breakfast and im rather tired of the low end places ive been taking
>Man points to his cows and says in a thick scottish accent:
I have every part of a cow in my freezer, you cowboys know your heffer, i want you to choose 2 body parts and i will cook them
>I reply immediately:
Cow Tongue and Calf Fry
>He smirks when i say the tongue, but is clueless at the fry, i explain its cow testicle
>He is bewildered, but says he has it, but has no idea how to cook it
>I offer to, and i cook it up just like at home
>Make fresh biscuits as well and succotash (whats up with you fuckers and making corn hard to get? jesus)
>We all sit down, he made cow tongue, tatties, and neeps
>The man made a fucking excellent cow tongue
>He ate 3 calf fries, and had them with cocktail sauce like a champ
>His wife tasted a fry and asked me if this was because oklahomans couldnt get fresh shellfish
>Replied that if we dont eat the testies, Indians will come to your house and curse you
>lols all around

I still havent been able to make that mash though...

"brit" means british, i.e. from england, scotland, wales, or northern ireland. Scots are brits.

>>4536094
Incorrect statement... I'm white as hell and I can't understand why when I get something "hot and spicy" and even ask for it extra spicy, it never is. I've even resorted to "extra, extra, extra, extra spice" when ordering, but nada. Thai people know how to do it right. I found out the correct way to tell them you really mean it is to say "Thai hot". Do the Chinese just not know WTF hot is, or do the assume I don't really mean what I'm saying?

>>4536748
we only see the english(london areas) as brits, everyone else is scottish, welsh, and irish
