That sounds awful. This is why I laugh when my gf says we don't need 2 lbs of butter in the fridge. Fuck that. Between baking and regular cooking I run through way too much to ever want to be in the position of going to the store for more in the middle of a recipe.

Made a batch of puttanesca sauce last weekend, but I didn't have red pepper. It ended up pretty damn good and well-balanced. At the last minute I thought: 'Maybe I could just put it in a bit of hot sauce instead of peppers'.

At first there was barely a drop coming out after tipping the bottle. I started shaking it over the pot and ended up with nearly the whole bottle splashing in. I tasted it with pasta but couldn't stomach more than 2 bites. Had to throw away that batch, and I was really looking forward to it. No capers, anchovies, tomatoes, parsley and olives left.

Alton Brown recommends it, and there's a cult of morons who listen to everything he says like it's the gospel.

That said, I use cast iron for a lot of things, and it is especially nice for steak. The advantage to it is that it's think and dense, so it retains its temperature after you've added the food. It's really nice for searing and high temp cooking, but it's not some miracle metal.

>huge tray of oven nachos with so many delicious toppings
>find out they've all dropped acid and can't fathom eating
>eat as much as i can before they turn into a soggy lump

over half of it hit the trash

i have never been so disappointed in my friends

i didn't let them have the satisfaction of eating the remainder of the unused chips and pico. That shit is for responsible gourmands (i.e. myself)

You know, part of it might have to do with the fact that you had 8 pieces of fried chicken rather than the quality of the chicken itself.

>acid
>hard drugs

Ok so it can impact your ability to comprehend things as much as "hard drugs", but that usually refers to the side affects. Of which LSD has very few (providing you are responsible with your use).

i never had a problem eating when i was on acid...or cocaine for that matter

I was being facetious with that responsible jibe. I was just angry at them for not waiting until after we had eaten the food I had taken so long to prepare. Doing drugs is their prerogative, just like cooking shit is mine. I will only judge them when our hobbies intersect roughly.

In that case, you are addicted to food.
I have NEVER been able to eat on any drug like this. Acid, I tried to eat sushi once on it, there was no fucking way. Coke? Never.
Once, my mom made me curry, and I had to eat it while I was on rolls. That was the worst experience of my life thus far.

That's the correct way to cook steak.

Oh god I really like alton brown, but this video was horrible. This episode seemed weird as it looked like it was marketed towards men. But cooking bacon on a waffle iron? What the fuck.
