The most american statement I have read today

>>17223232
american cheese with two slices of ham in an untoasted sandwhich is *chefs kiss*

>>17223232
stop saying ridiculous things

>>17223232
Also worthless if it's anything but American cheese, needs to be on a burger too. Europoors are fucking disgusting for eating it raw.

>>17223232
So is butter. The two have the same role

Cheese as an ingredient (not a topping) is near worthless for adding interesting flavors of its own and is really only there to add tasty grease to otherwise bland or bitter foods.

Unless you're using soft cheeses in desserts like tiramisu the only time you'll actually be able to single out the cheese flavor is when its the main ingredient, like in macaroni and cheese

>>17224616
This is one of the most hilariously bad takes I've ever heard. Have you only ever had cheap cheddar and kraft singles?

>>17223232
>He doesn't enjoy cheese and crackers

>>17224623
Name one recipe that adds cheese as something other than a sauce where it actually stands out as cheese and not just oil

>>17224638
A simple salad with brie, crumbled blue cheese, chevre, parmesan, etc.

A cheese plate with toasted bread and charcuterie and some quince jam or fig jam and honey.

Any sandwich you add good quality cheese to, but dont melt the cheese.

Have you had roquefort cheese before? Or epoisses? Very strong and unique flavor that is far from just oil.

>salad
topping

>sandwich
topping

>cheese plate
not used as an ingredient, it's a sampler of cheese itself, and the best way to enjoy cheese because it is actually able to stand out with its own flavor

>>17224707
Meat as an ingredient (not a topping) is near worthless for adding interesting flavors of its own and is really only there to add tasty grease to otherwise bland or bitter foods.

>>17224707
Are you okay?

>>17224707
Take your meds you autistic fuck

>>17224707

>>17224713
Meat has a distinct flavor and texture. You can absolutely taste when brisket is used in dip, or when ground meat is used as the basis of a shepherd's pie. It doesn't just assimilate to the point that you cannot tell if it was meat or just butter and cream the way cheese does.

Anytime you are actually using cheese as an ingredient in a dish that doesn't revolve around it (again, not as a topping where you are just eating cheese with other things) it's impact becomes minute

>>17224616

>>17224722
Whoa, I guess when I'm eating vegetables with ranch, I'm using vegetables and ranch as ingredients in a dish

>>17224740
Cheese has a distinct flavor and texture. You can absolutely taste when blue cheese is used in dip, or when ground parmesan is used as the basis of cacio e pepe. It doesn't just assimilate to the point that you cannot tell if it was "cheese" or just protein and fat the way meat does

>>17224748
I'm going to constrain my argument down so far that I think there's no way for me to be incorrect.

Ignores the established definition of a word when used to refute his retarded argument.

>>17224757
Maybe when it's a cheese dip, or when its a cheese sauce.

Learn to read retard, I'm saying when cheese isn't the main fucking flavor it adds nothing.

You dont use cheese bouillon the way you do with meat because it doesn't stand out the same way

>>17224764
no matter how you cut it, cheese and crackers and charcuterie is not a dish, and the parts are not ingredients. You are taking 2 different things and eating them together

>>17224774
Have you never paired food in your life?

sandwich toppings are ingredients

>>17224638
pizza, you imbecile

>>17224767
Crumbled blue cheese in a green salad.

Caprese salad.

Putting parmesan rind into a simmering pasta sauce.

Pesto with parmesan.

>mmmmmm soooo melty mmmm mmmm mmmmm melty!!!
>lets cut out the middleman and just make a cheese flavoured vegetable oil coagulant that is EXTRA MELTY mmmmmm

In case the profound fixation on BBC wasn't a clue, Americans were a mistake.

>>17224777
Pairing foods is great. Chocolate covered strawberries, ants on a log, caramel apples, etc are all great and more than the sum of their parts, but that doesn't make them dishes or recipes any more than stuffing 2 things in your mouth at the same time

>>17224757
>It doesn't just assimilate to the point that you cannot tell if it was "cheese" or just protein and fat the way meat does
You can't distinguish meat when it is cooked?

>>17224786
Topping

Pairing

Adding vague dairy flavor to different sauce

Adding vague dairy flavor to different sauce

>>17224809
I get you now, bud. Good luck in life.

>>17224783
Pizza is admittedly a good example, because it is at the bare minimum bread, sauce, and cheese cooked together, all 3 of which stand out when you eat it.

I would argue that it is an exception, but good job

>>17224800
Do you think you could fit the shaft and balls in your mouth? That's a good pairing.

>>17223244
American cheese is hog piss tier

>>17223232
>autist topic of the day: cheese

>>17224826
Yes but I'd be retarded to call them ingredients

>>17224826
No but I could easily throat the whole shaft and hold the balls up with my tongue.

I'm gay if that matters ;-o

>>17224837
Impressive.

>>17223232
>>17224616
cheese is literally one of the most flavorful and varied foods in the world
have you guys only ever had kraft singles and cheap """swiss cheese""" or something?

>>17223232
are you 8

>>17225324
I've had emmental and while it's nice importing it costs a hefty amount while I can get a brick of swiss for literally $2 and will taste more gourmet than most Americans will ever eat with 5 hours cold smoking in my backyard.

>>17225324
unfortunately that’s all the average american has access to

>>17223232
How melted?

>>17225364
This is why I cook everything using the cream of the Hellfire missiles the American government has to offer. It's expensive but worth it.

>>17223232
charcuterie is good. on christmas, there was some swiss and cheese-stuffed olives, absolutely fantastic on a cracker

>>17223232
YOU'RE a worthless ingredient until it's been melted. lol

>>17226284
Rude..
