/ck/ - Food & Cooking

[Anonymous No.12736808]

Why doesn't this board have a wiki? I wanted to get into cuisine and I was going to read some books on cooking or whatever. Where can I go to level up?

You weren’t gonna do shit you lazy doofus, just like every other facet of your life. You like the idea of being able to cook so you fantasize about it and gather a dozen pages and articles but stop halfway through the second sentence and go jerk off to girls with throbbing cocks and never set foot in a kitchen. Now fuck off to /k/ and pretend you’re gonna start a knife collection, which you will also fail at

Most fast food tier lists are autistic nonsense based on where you live over the actual quality of the chain.

the kitchen and start cooking.
only experience points gives levels.

To give you a serious answer, a good starting point for a cook book would be The Food Lab by Kenji Lopez-Alt, since it's not just a recipe collection, but also gives you information on how and why certain things work.

For real tho. Check out Good Will and other thrift shops, they often have a couple dozen cook books around for cheap.

Because we’re autists who can’t agree on a sticky. I’d recommend looking up YouTube videos on basic techniques like knife work and basic recipes like making marinara sauce from scratch.

there was actually a thread a while ago someone posted a bunch of recipes they'd save from over the years >>12611536
most people that do actually cook don't bother to give a recipe since their photos are all about plating, but if you ask for a recipe or about an ingredient you see but don't recognize usually you'll get a reply

A board like this should definitely have a sticky, so to clear up basic questions that aren't worth their own thread

I like the book Salt Fat Acid Heat, it has a lot of great information to build a foundation of knowledge. There is a netflix show but it's kind of shit and the author is a poor host.

[Anonymous No.12738209]

>>12738056
Are you kidding? Retards here argue about the proper method to boil water and you think they could come to some consensus on a methodological sticky? The best one could hope for would be a definition of the primary techniques like braising, sauteing, stewing, pan frying, deep frying, roasting, grilling, bbqing, etc. with perhaps examples of dishes using those techniques from around the world. It would still be untenable, because some texas/italian grandma would come in screaming about it. Just give it up and google shit, attempt something, post your OC and proceed to get raked over the coals by fastfood kids along with a few constructive posts you can learn from.

Oh okay that sucks. It's my first time on /ck/ and I wanted to know some basics on how to break free from rotating through the same 5 dishes every week while being a broke-ass student and thought that'd be the question a sticky would answer since I bet faggots come here every day to ask the exact same shit.

[Anonymous No.12738352]

>Oh okay that sucks.
Not really. As I said, google something you want to eat, post what you made and ask how it could be improved. A few posts might help. But yeah, this board is in the middle of summer so you're going to get a lot of kiddie posts before they go back to school.

[Anonymous No.12738386]

>>12738352
Oh I was referring to how it sucks for the board, that faggots can't agree on what seems to be basic shit.
But thanks for the advice anyways, I'll try it next time.

Go to YouTube. No, seriously. Videos are infinitely more informative than articles and cookbooks.
If you're just barely competent enough to boil an egg, then go for Tasty. It's normie trash, but it does teach you the ropes. Once you can handle a pot of pasta you can look at stuff like Munchies and Bon Appetit.

Brothers Green Eats (or Pro Home Cooks as the channel is now called) is exactly what you want. They have dozens of videos on how to cook cheap and fast.
