/ck/ - Food & Cooking

1. I used nice sirloin
2. humidity was in check
3. I guess I'm not that good at describing taste. The fact that me and the other 4 people who tasted the steak didn't feel sick at all should prove otherwise.
4. I kind of guess some of you here just want to act like they have any idea what you talk about, and thats fine. Still, give it a rest. The meat looks like the dry aged beef I've seen, it tasted good, but stronger than usual beef, which is hard to describe, and I'm SURE you all know better because of the self-summary I've provided.
Salt also worked perfectly fine.

that's a scratch on the table.


well, been nice talking to many of you, hope I could help somebody, but I see this board isn't the cool place it used to be anymore.

>smell, not taste

>>6112235
thanks!
bought it from the internet, then spent a few hours cleaning it with vinegar+lemon water, then with some kind of cleaning substance then again with water.
well, sort of bought, I looked it up on a austrian buy-and-sell website, thought I'd buy it, then got it for free because the owner didn't need it anyway.

I don't even know how these people can live with themselves. Fuck. I want to crawl back to bad and stay there.

Gonna go with Crispy Tossed Potaetoes, steamed brokkoli and a Blaufränkisch wine with those steaks for today's dinner-

Well, that was a fun experiment. It worked out very well, so anyone who was asking himself wether he can do this at home, yes, you can.

btw, ate it 12 hours ago, still feeling perfectly fine.
Seems it worked out pretty well.
Don't have a scale sadly, but atleast 0,7kg from 1,1 were left after the process.

The articles on the internet didn't lie
>strong, very unusual taste, reminded me a bit of boar, but more tender. Probably would still have a strong taste even with just a little pinch of salt and no pepper.

also, the smell reminded me of game and wood

look at that beauty! even the fat was delicious, and usualy I'm just no fan of it.

now back to the important part - I cooked the smallest piece, probably around 2 cm thick with a fat layer.
Very hot pan, a small splash of olive oil, salt, pretty standard. 1 minute 15 seconds each side, peppering after turning around.
Next time I'll go with 1 min 30 sec each side, but it was still great.

here's how the meat looked before cutting off the dried edges, and well, like I said, it looked pretty much the same since day 11.

the fat-covered bottom side was just supreme and by far the softest

>>6111460
here's all the steaks I cut, it doesn't look that spectacular, but it's my first time so I'm still pretty amazed.

>>6111447
you bet I will, this evening I'm cooking for a few friends, but one steak is already made and eaten - I can't test my products on other people - and it was god damn delicious.

Here is one of the cut steaks ( I know, very small, but what the hell)

for anyone who didn't see my threads yet,
I started with 1,1 kg of Sirloin steak, and held it in a fridge with the temperature of 0-5° C, low moisture and circulated air.
This was the setup.

Hey hey /ck/,
some of you may know me - I'm the guy who decided to dry age beef at home.
22 days have passed - and since I won't have time next week, that's the end of this journey.

Without any further ado, here is the result after cutting of the edges.

everything this guy said except avocados. that shit is just supreme.

I think it's pretty decent when fried in a pan with a shitload of other vegetables as a whole, but eggplant alone is just horrible in my opinion.
What would be a good way of cooking it in your opinion?

I'd even say there are a ton of people on 4chan that are perfectly normal... except on /b/, /v/ and /r9k/, obviously.

>what eating tacos actualy feels like

>>6092028
Can't tell for certain, but my family is ukrainian and when they have guests over it's either red wine, vodka or cognac.

he's right tho. Reddit as a whole is as bad as /b/, the subreddits can be as great as it can get. Especially love /xcom/, no cancer at all.
