Only if you use it to serve guests

>>17408823
Yes - fuck I hate the poor

Is it low class to use regular garlic over black garlic?

>>17408823
Damn i love mixing these in a glass of hot water and drinking it

>>17408827
Why?

>>17408823
One of the best chefs in the world confessed to have use them routinely in his 5-star Michelin star restaurants.

>>17408823
It's my choice

>>17408823
only if you have time to make your own stock but are too lazy

>>17408823
only if you let people know you use it

>>17408907

>>17408907
>tfw got some premade gnocchi from the store and told family I made them myself
>everybody compliments on my cooking
It's funny how when you are known for "being into cooking", that people accept anything and believe all your lies.

>>17408827
>>17408876
Yes, anon. Why do you hate the poor so much? Why?! Don't you realize I am poor?! I feel personally attacked from your post.
I am literally shaking and crying right now. ;'(((
I can't believe someone would seriously post this!!!

>>17408823
Nah, they're pretty convenient. It's what I go for when I am out of chicken stock.

>>17408886
Lol b8 Michelin only goes to 3 stars

>>17408983
I'm not poor, you aggressive twat. I just don't understand the hate.

>>17408996
4 and 5 stars is for Knorr™ Stock™ Cubesseurs™ only, philistine

>>17409031
You don't understand it because you're poor. Idiot.
Get a grip, or maybe realize you're too autistic to get it, to begin with.

>>17408823
What part of Better Than Boullion did you not understand? It's simple English.

>>17409392
>Better Than Boullion
The name brand sounds trashy.

>>17409397
It's legit better than boullion or Knorr Stock Pots.

>>17408823
I use chicken powder I get from the Chink store, it's chickeny and it thickens soup

>>17408827
what do these artificial things have to do with being poor? isnt preparing your own buillon extremely cheap?

>>17408823
Don't see why would it be. It's super fast and easy and it tastes pretty much the same.

>>17408827
in white countries it costs less than 4 bucks to prepare your own delicious broth.

in what third world island did you grow up where broth was too expensive and only rich people could afford not using artificial ones?

you sound like an angry pajeet

>>17408989
Is this true? Can you really just use buillon cube water as an ersatz replacement for stock?

>>17409480
Ofcourse you can thats what theyre made for.

>>17408868
That and crushing into powder to use as a salt substitute for fries and whatnot really all they're good for. I use this for actual cooking. Big jars are surprisingly cheap at costco.

>>17409509
It has never occurred to me, I thought they were exclusively just for soup. Then again, I'm not what you'd call a home cook, much less an experienced one. Either way, thanks for the confirmation. I'll now use buillon cubes for my ragouts.

>>17409480
As long as the salt it brings won't ruin the dish.

From best to worst: homemade stock > better than bouillon > quality, low-sodium store-bought stock (preferably enriched with some gelatin) > generic stock > loose bouillon powder > bouillon cubes.

>>17409530
>>17409480
the absolute state of /ck/

>>17409543
Hey, don't rag on this board because of me. I'm just a tourist from /pol/. When I get bored raving about the jews, I come here for a vacation and look at all the kitchen equipment, tobacco or people whining about cast iron being shit.

>>17409590
that plus meme rice cookers and deenz threads is basically the whole fucking board

>>17409590
same. used to go to /tv/ but its a tranny territory now so i come here

>>17409621
It's pretty cozy here, isn't it? Cooking truly is a nigger-free pastime. I wonder why black people can't cook worth anything then go on about KFC and how wypipo don spice dey food.

>>17409392
I love eating small spoonfuls of this

>>17409221
>>17408983
>>17408827
you were the first in your entire family line to get a job at as high as $15/h, we get it. you're still a bum just like the rest of your kin. come back when you're earning six figures and have at least 500k in savings.

>>17409433
They'll never know the truth you speak of. Let the peasants have their fodder.

>>17409392
I believe they came out with a garlic one too

Stock is literally made of leftovers and is cooked passively. It's basically free and effortless. No reason not to do it

>>17409648
niggers have other things to do anon. dey be huslin

>>17409766
Perhaps read OP, then go read that started this all and think for 2 seconds.

>>17409766
>4K projection

what is bouillon exactly? is it just a paste of very reduced broth and salt?

>>17408823
If it's low class I don't want to be high class

>>17409848
>>17409898
if you're lucky, maybe your great-great grandon's great-great grandson might make something of himself and finally bring dignity and a median income into your lineage. not likely though.

It's not necessarily low-class, but it's cooklet behavior to consistently use it for dishes where the stock is important. However, it's tryhard behavior to use real stock for poverty food that explicitly calls for bullion, like jamaican rice and peas.
>>17409455
>it tastes pretty much the same.
get your taste buds checked, holy shit.

I'm worth a million and a half dollars and use them

>>17410035
Can you pay for my Invisalign?

>>17409766
six figures isn't anything to brag about, hasn't been for over 10 years

Are you kidding me? The preview is literally a vagina. Jumping the sharp maxxing

As a straight replacement for stock when added to plain water? Yeah, if done consistently because you don't know any better and think it's al the same. If you know it's not but just don't care and don't want to make your own, that just means you don't really care about food that much, which isn't necessarily a bad or low class thing.

I'll add a stock cube to actual stock, though. For most applications calling for liquids that aren't water, adding a good glug of red or white wine plus some bay leaves and a stock cube is a common thing for me, including most stock itself.

They're mostly pucks of flavored salt and a bit fat, treat them as such.

>>17408823
Even professional kitchens use stock cubes, nothing wrong with them.

>>17408823
yes, yes it is

>>17409392
Tastes like shit, buy Herb-Ox instead.
