/ck/ - Food & Cooking

This is the only picture I took and this is towards the end.

How much water did you start with?

I started with 4-5 gallons, added 2 while boiling and reduced to about 1 gallon of stock.

Had 3.8lbs pigs feet cut in half lengthwise and 2.5lbs chicken backs.

I did all of this, the boil was rolling in the middle of the pot and he bones were rattling on the bottom once the meat fell off.

It's been in the fridge for a day and it's not even solid, it's the thickness of milk :/

Was going to make my own thread but I'll ask here.

I cook very sporadically so half the time I buy fresh shit it ends up going bad.
Soft boiled eggs and frozen broccoli stay good forever and are my current go to ramen fixings.
What's the best way to get meat into it just for nutritional value?

I was thinking pre-cook slices of pork belly and then freeze them maybe, throw them into the broth while heating.

I'll let you fuck my gf if I can fuck your sister

I was joking to my GF saying I hope she likes tentacles earlier today, so I've decided to make calamari carbonara
if the store near my house doesn't have squid, shrimp carbonara

>>8129123
we both have full time jobs and she lives an hour away, so idk about that

>>8129083
That's not her, this is.

>>8129090
I'm not in the mood for fried chicken.

My girlfriend is coming over tomorrow and we're making a date out of cooking together. We used to do that all the time but it's been a while. I can't think of what time make.

What should me make that's a little involved but not too complex?

It starts to dry out tho

I'll try this eventually but I liked the canned shit.

Some times I want things becuase they're shit, like American Coca-Cola as opposed to Mexican, and store bought Hummus vs my own.

How can I improve this Corned Beef Hash recipe? It's tasty as fuck, but I think I could improve the texture - it usually comes out as a slightly wet mash, I'd like something that holds together just a little bit.

>fill large pan half way with chicken broth
>add a small diced potato
>boil potato 3-5 minues
>add half a diced onion and a clove or two of diced garlic
>add can of corned beef, mash it all up
>throw in some cayenne pepper, some slightly undercooked bacon too if you want
At this point it should look like soup, add more chicken broth if not, broth level should be above everything
>bring to boil, then turn heat down to medium low
>simmer until the broth has cooked off and is the consistency you like, probably 20 minutes, don't stir if you like a crust, stir occasionally if you just want a mash and less cleanup

Think doing 50/50 corned beef and ground beef would do it?

You can either go to Williams Sonoma and get a nice knife with some quality steel that will hold an edge or you can go to Macy's and get Faberware that will cut just as well but require being sharpened all the time. I chose the former, do whatever you want.

>have big ass house parties sometimes
>people generally respect our shit because it's 95% people we know
>drinking games in the attic, smokers downstairs in the living room (pot only)
>come downstairs
>friend of mine is cleaning his glass bowl with my $80 paring knife
What is it about stoners? They love food, they should know better.

>have a few nice Wustholf knives
>remind roommate incessantly not to be fucks with them
>friend of ours comes over to make THC candies in our kitchen because it makes the whole house smell like pot for a few days and he lives at home still
>makes a few batches, shit isn't half bad even though I don't like smoking pot
>he starts cleaning up
>walk back into kitchen
>he's trying to pry rock hard pot candy out of the mixing spoon with my $80 paring knife

I went full autism on him. I think I went overboard because he mentions how sorry he is every time he's in my kitchen.

Hummus:
>1 large can garbonzos (pour in a few onces of the juice)
>2-3 good squirts of lemon juice
>2-4 tbsp tahini
>2-4 cloves garlic
>2-4 canned chipotle chiles
>some salt
process until the texture is as desired

Lamb:
>2 lamb shanks cleaned of sinew and diced (took over an hour, going to buy ground in the future)
>1 small onion diced
>brown lamb in olive oil, chili powder and cumin on high heat, under cook rather than over cook
>add onion shortly after starting the lamb so that it retains some crispness
>drain oil, top hummus, garnish with leeks

tl;dr

>>6379469
We were playing with the idea of lamb on one of the pizzas, but we've eaten lamb twice this past like 10 days and it's a little expensive.

>>6379472
We didn't want anything traditional so we figured we may as well go full retard.

So I've decided on the menu, what do you think?

>>6379063
Most of us lift so protein is key, but grains and vegetables are nice too.

What should I make for Easter Dinner?

My GF and I will be cooking for our roommates and their significant others (6-10 people).

>no ham, none of us care for it
>definitely going to make my signature spicy hummus fancy style (ground lamb and leeks)
