/ck/ - Food & Cooking

>>4554236

No one cares about your sub-board no taste food photography contest, we're all just sad that now they rest of your garbage tripfags will be posting in normal threads now that you don't have your little closet sanctuary anymore.

Thanks for hosting the challenge this year and last year!

Haroooooooooooo! Pyewack my dick bitches

>>4554244
agreed. Attention whore losers

fuck off

does this mean we wont have to scroll past these annoying walls of text anymore?

>>4554337
Yes, unless someone else decides to do it.

THANK YOU /CK/!!!!!
Thank you so much to all the voters who enjoyed my entries and took the time to grade them,
Thank you so much to heartsonfire and dogsfordinner, who took so much of their own time and money to set this contest up for us.
I really had a blast coming up with and creating my entries, and I really loved seeing everyone else's entries, too. I got so much inspiration from you guys, you really made me have to think outside the box, because your entries were so good (and looked delicious!). There's quite a few of everyone's recipes I'm going to be trying over the summer!
I don't know what else to say, I'm not really used to writing thank you speeches, even casual ones. But just know that I appreciate all the votes and critiques, you made me a better cook and better plater (especially the latter), I appreciate h&d for giving us /ck/s something fun to do this spring, and I'll still be here, lurking around, posting comments, recipes and pictures, like I usually do, but I probably will retire my trip for now. I never used a trip before, and made this one just for the contest.
Since I'm working from home today, I'm going to make a celebratory lunch later! I'll post a pic, LOL.
Pic related, meet my namesake, Pyewacket, my grumpy cat!

shit, guys
have any of you even looked at these threads and the shitload of OC that comes out of it? and seriously, almost every participant makes a vertical for everything they make

thanks heartsonfire for running this whole thing, it was a good break from all the shitty tipping and semen cooking threads

pic related, something you should all be asking yourselves

>>4554366

OH, shut it....god....WAT. I don't think it's even humanly possible to ever get the brown stain you just put on your nose off. Srs'ly is your life that pathetic as to actually view this as some form of accomplishment...DUDE it's the internet.

ok

>>4554395

I'd rather read a Natural Harvest troll thread then listen to you tripfaggin, self-righteous, whiny attention whores argue about who took a better picture and pretend you or the hacks posting muh verticlez' know dick about gastronomy.

>>4554399
>I'm SERIOUS MAN. I TAKE EVERYTHING SERIOUSLY. I EAT SERIOUS FOR BREAKFAST. THERE IS NO JOY IN THE WORLD, ONLY SERIOUSNESS AND MISERY. ANYONE WHO'S NOT MISERABLE AND SUPER SERIOUS IS A WHORE.

>>4554408
Oh shit son, WATCH OUT. Looks like we got a REAL gastronomist here!

>>4554399
>>4554408
>more faggots

can you just start killing yourselves?

>>4554408
Why don't you just say "Get off my lawn you meddling kids!", cause that'd be about the same.
also
Why do you like eating cum?

>OMG...they don't agree with me, quick call'em gay, that'll fix'em.

>this thread

did /v/ get a day off or something? why is /ck/ so hostile and terrible today?

>>4554448
Fuck off. There's like 5 people on /ck/ who actually like this bullshit.

STOP LIKING THREADS I DONT LIKE GUISE

>>4554470
As long as you stop cancering up my /ck/

>>4554366
Congratulations Pyewacket! Your submissions and sportsmanship is an inspiration to us all.
Thank you heartsonfire and dogsfordinner for organizing this competition, and for all the judges and competitors for participating.

This has definitely been the toughest cooking competition I have ever participated in.

I liked this contest. It fosters creativity and experimentation as well as provides original content. I don't understand what the problem is with the contest? I wish there was this much animosity towards the fast food, ramen, and vegan trolling fuckery.

>>4554485
There is animosity towards anything and everything on 4chan (or the internet as a whole for that matter). Some guy out there is trying to get some attention in a thread he knows will get many views.

>>4554484
Thanks SirSpice! You were a tough competitor, your food looked so damn good. This was a tough competition, really. Everyone did some creative, unusual stuff. I can't wait to start trying out some of the recipes myself.

>>4554485
>fosters creativity and experimentation

right if this was /p/

>fast food, ramen, treegan shit

At one point or another this mockery encouraged all three of those things, thereby simply making it in it's entirety a microcosm of everything that is wrong with /ck/ just to foster your (collectively), own special little sandbox on the board where you could express meaningless opinions on insufficient data while wardened off in a trip tolerant string of nonsense threads.

>>4554462
That's 100% of /ck/!

>>4554510
>At one point or another this mockery encouraged all three of those things

Except that's wrong. It didn't encourage instant ramen threads, taco bell and mcdonalds food, or the constant stream of vegan shit that SHOULD be regulated to /pol/ or /adv/ or /soc/ or somewhere where arguing about lifestyle choices is actually relevant.
What this DID do was ask and encourage people to DO BETTER than that shite. If you can't see that, you're a fucking idiot.

>>4554520
We had a lot of lurkers. At least, that's what I gather from the blog stats. Either that, or someone really, really liked the blog and checked it 50-ish times every day.

>>4554534

>at the thought of one person all bleary--eyed and drooling, with butt sores from never leaving the computer while OCD checking the blog every 2 minutes.

>>4554534

The latter is much more likely.

>>4554529

Regardless of what ever ill-fated intentions there happened to be; the simple fact of the matter is that it only served to perpetuate the status quo by quasi legitimizing this type of garbage with absolutely zero quantifiable improvement.

>>4554576
I remember the first time I used a thesaurus.

>>4554584

Prison library?

>>4554591
At Pretentious U., where I majored in Douchebaggery with a minor in Pomp. I deduce from your verbosity that you are also a luminary of the institution.

>>4554576
Really? No improvement? So someone making authentic tonkotsu ramen from scratch is no improvement over someone boiling some Top Ramen and adding an egg to it?
Many People creating homemade gourmet burgers isn't an improvement over McDonald's and Taco Bell?
Many People showing that you can make delicious, creative vegetarian dishes without using fake meat products or losing any flavor isn't an improvement?
You've just shown what a huge ass you are, so quit before you go from ass to turd.

>>4554601
I think we were in the same frat, I Eatta Pi.

congrats fags

>>4554366
congrats, dude. I loved seeing your entries every week. Definitely gave me some inspiration for some dishes of my own.

>>4554236
Thanks again for all your hard work, hearts. It was awesome!

Fuck yeah, /ck/ retard awards.
Cancer on the lot of you.

>>4554366
Well, I said I was going to post my lunch earlier, so here I am. It's a Garlic-Thyme Custard with grilled shrimp seasoned with Herbs de Provence (on micro greens).
This was something that I'd been wanting to make, and I kept trying to think of a way to work it into the challenge, but it didn't seem to fit with anything, really, except for maybe the tapas challenge, but that was already over at the time. If I would have had the right ingredients, I probably would have made a tomato gastrique to go with it, but I didn't have what I needed for that. It was really delicious, anyway, though. I don't know that grilled shrimp is the exact right meat to serve with it, but that's what I had. I mainly wanted to try out the savory custard. I think it would go well next to a grilled steak instead of a sauce or other condiment.

>>4554366
Thank goodness, this speech was as adorable as I was hoping.

>>4554366
I won last year and I used my cat's name as my ID too. Congratulations! I really enjoyed your plates.

>>4554856
HA! that's funny. Thanks a lot, that's really nice of you to say!

>>4554813
You're...welcome (?) Lol.

Well...err..ignoring the drama...

Congrats Pye! Your stuff always made me hungry. Thanks to heartsonfire and dogsfordinner for this awesome contest and voters for voting and keeping up with the contest. When I thought about entering, all I could think about was "damn i want that fucking mug!" so I am beyond excited. Tea will taste glorious out of it.

>>4554888
Thanks Rei! Guess what? I just found out my local meat market carries alligator when I was in there this weekend, so guess what I'm making sometime soon!
Anyway, that's so funny you said that about the mug, because I was thinking earlier about how satisfying it was going to be to drink my morning beverages out of it.

>>4554902
NICE!
Well, I'm moving across country in a few days...so....you may have better access to it than I soon! I'm sure i'll find ways to cook some cajun recipes.

>>4554911
You might be surprised. I live in NorCal, so if I can find it here, you might be able to find your cajun cookery needs where you're moving too as well.

>>4554778
Is that steamed egg? It goes pretty well with seafood. What recipe did you use?

And congrats on winning!

>>4554484
>>4554888
I'm mirin your /ck/ mugs, I swear I'll win one next year...

>>4554888
>When I thought about entering, all I could think about was "damn i want that fucking mug!" so I am beyond excited. Tea will taste glorious out of it.

I thought the exact same thing. In fact, I was one of the handful of anons who asked if it would be possible to make a small contribution to the contest in exchange for a mug. But alas, hearts obstinately insisted that they are strictly for finalists...

Also, thanks and congrats to all. I had a swell time lurking and voting.

>let's all just continue to ignore the handful of supposed haters
>i entirely believe it is the result of some mod banning the food pics guy...

In any case, lets be sure to do this again next year (I'm gonna get me one o' them mugs, at the very least).

>>4555105
Thanks Borneo!

It's similar to steamed egg, but more of a European style custard, made with eggs and cream. It was very good, I'll be making it again when I think of what I'd like to serve it with.

>>4555130
I've never heard of a savory western custard before. Maybe you could add a variety of mushrooms.

>>4555241
Mushrooms would be excellent with that. Good idea.

>>4554500
>getting attention

on an anonymous imageboard. Even though he trips, noone will know him anyways...

>>4555105
Can you get Pepsi Gol in Malaysia still, oh Expert of SEA?

Hof what do you think about a Top Master Iron Chef Ultimate Nightmare Kitchen: Just Desserts?

Random anon, this competition was freaking amazing (time travel round was one of the best threads I've ever read on 4chan). Sad to see you guys go. Thanks for making this happen, /ck/ :)

>>4555367
You mean Pepsi Gold? It's gone forever, just like Pepsi Blue. Sorry buddy.

Welp, this mochi was what I was going to submit for the final round. It turned out to be way undercooked though, so I decided to just bin it.

someone should post all of pyewacket's entries

>>4556042
I used about 500g of red beans to make a batch of red bean paste, not realising that the beans would swell a considerable amount after cooking.

Red bean paste is a familiar taste from my childhood, and is present in many desserts. I used the rest to make dorayaki, red bean paste filled sweet pancakes.

>>4556049

I missed it. What did the person who won make?

>>4556047

Oh yeah, this. Is there anywhere we can go to see the old threads?

>>4556051

dude why would you put strawberries on your burger

>>4556094

Please...no more dessert rounds.

>>4556138
But you seem to excel at dessert, Mr. Cupcakes!

>tldr
will be entering next competition.

>>4555116
You can make your own mug! :) The image was drawn by designerguy (who also made it far into the elimination rounds); all you have to do is upload it and order it from a site like Zazzle. I just didn't like the thought of mixing money because drama tends to follow money.

>>4555380
I like desserts. But right now I can't commit to anything. :(

>I just really wanted to post this image.

>>4556789

Only around those who have little of it.

>>4556799
It would be a good idea for the future though.

You super busy too?

>>4556817
Yeah. :( And next year looks crazier. Everything else about running the Challenge is easy but tallying scores ate up more of my free time than it should have. Occasionally skimming and posting on /ck/ at work is one thing but trying to add up, average, and weight scores isn't feasible so I ended up spending like the hour of free time I have at home doing that. : |

>>4554236
Wow, look at that glistening bastard there, it looks like Kryten from Red Dwarf. And well done pyewacket - a thoroughly deserving winner!

I am hoping that both the challenge and hearts+dogs will be returning next year. You seem to have the infrastructure down pretty well and I wouldn't trust somebody else to run it without it descending into a complete snafu.

Also, I felt legit guilty about failing to even make an entry for the cupcakes round and it pretty much ruined my holiday. I hope that is sufficient emotional blackmail to make sure that YOU CAN NEVER LEAVE US.

>>4556852
yeah I don't know how you made time I wanted to participate this year but there was no way I could get away with it.

So is it all work stuff keeping you busy?

>>4556986

damnit anon, i just lost the game.

>>4556986
Lol, I know your schedule is like, insane. I'm glad you're finding time to post on /ck/ more lately, though. Always happy to add to my my stalkery /ck/ folder. :B

Mostly work. I'm working for my parents and we're at this growing pains stage where it's like, we're perpetually understaffed for the workload we have but we don't have enough capital to spend it on experts/management system. Doing everything from unclogging toilets to office-y work right now, 8 am to 9+ pm. I can't wait to fucking win the lottery and quit for life.

Also for whatever reason I decided to go for my JD this year as well because I'm insane. I thought that doing it via a correspondence program would be easier but lol, I was so wrong. Baby bar is coming up in 7 months. DX

>>4556974
Dogs won't be coming back next year unless I do something drastic to entice her. :( She was made mod at a huge subreddit some weeks ago so she has her hands full.

Seriously, anyone interested in running it next year, feel free to drop me an email. I don't mind doing prizes/shipping and whatnot, it's just the whole tallying up votes thing.

>>4556986
>posting magic eye without reference points
I sure do love testing 5 degrees of crosseyed to figure out what I'm meant to be looking at

>>4557152
>reference points
What. I've never used one.

>>4557174
2 dots that are meant to overlap at the correct amount of cross-eyedness.

>>4557180
Oh, I understand how that can be a problem to not have them. I usually adjust.

>>4557174
I've never been able to do that magic eye shit.

>>4554236
CONGRATULATIONS!

Wtf is this? You people have competitions with real prizes?
I'm fuckin jellyfish!
/b/ and /pol/ needs something like this.
........so this is the real 4chan secret club.
Competitions & Prizes

>>4557056
When will next year's competition be? If it doesn't overlap too much with my exams and you show me the equations, I'm pretty
quick at calculations. Can I still join as a contestant though?

Good luck with your bar exam!
