/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I've never been to one due to social anxiety, and often rely on apps, but I'd like to do it like the big boys. This is not a joke or troll.

I tasted one of my tomatoes a day after it became red and it was just as tart as a supermarket's. Any tips on what to do? I thought it being red was a sign it was ready.

Thanks for the info but I am OP and I have had it up to HERE with the name calling

I grew up in a family where the pots or trays of food were simply put on the table and everyone served themselves or were served by someone. So I've only ever experienced "plating" in restaurants or cafés and such places, and that has left me with many problems thinking about the actual eating procedure of a meal in a home setting with medium formality.

How can I entertain people with my food bringing only the plates to the table? What if they want more? Do I get up and serve them again? Clean plates?

I can understand the system if you have servants, but being the cook and the host at the same time is a bit confusing to me, especially for meals such as lunch or dinner.

Anyone else has the same problem?

Any tips would help.

Thanks.

who here /orthorexia/ the vegans say we're meant to eat plant foods while carnivores say to eat meat. whats the healthiest diet bros

is there any food you guys make with little to no seasonings? i have to start following low fodmap and no dairy diet because im brapping too much. its seriously getting obnoxious. what sucks the most is even things allegedly easy on the gut contain onions and garlic like soups. without them the soup is just meat water and tastes gross. the only thing i can think of is fish such as salmon and trout since i can have them with salt and pepper and still enjoy.
