i really hope this thread inherits the accepting vibe of the coffee thread, where people who obsessively measure every aspect of their brew get along with the savages genuinely enjoying their instant. i've been cooking so much this last year. i was never really bad at it (as i can follow instruction and have tastebuds), but with proper practice i have gotten pleasingly esoteric with it.

I’ve been experimenting with mushrooms. mushrooms and TVP if you still eat dairy, i do a good mushroom galette make a standard 3-2-1 pie dough (3 parts flour, 2 parts butter, 1 part water, by weight, plus a pinch of salt). wrap it up in a ball, and refrigerate. in a pot, melt some butter and cook a bunch of different kinds of mushrooms. you can use anything that you like, chopped to similar sizes. add a bunch of fresh thyme. salt and pepper to taste. once you've reduced the mushrooms and have a browned, cooked-down mass, remove from heat. stir it a goodly amount of quality sour cream (sour cream is one of the ingredients i don't compromise on because there's actually a huge difference in flavour between lovely and good sour cream) to make a spreadable filling. take your pie dough and roll it out into a rough circle about an 1/8 of an inch thick. spread your filling out on top, leaving a few inches from the edge on all sides. fold the pie dough over top, leaving the centre open (a hole about the size of your fist). it's the dough will overlap and that's fine. brush all the exposed dough with an egg wash, including in between the folds if possible. bake in a hot oven (around 400F or so) until the crust is golden brown this is great served with a selection of vegetables and a dollop of sour cream on top. you can also use the filling in other things, like a layer in lasagna or as a ravioli filling.

i made chicken and pastry last night. i make it about once a month or so and it's so god dammed good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTcN5boMueE i like to add more carrots, onion, and celery to it so it's more soup-like though. and sometimes i put egg in the pastry

I’m terminally helpless it's fine. cooking is overrated. if I could flick a switch so I never needed to eat again I'd be fine. eating is a burden and good tasting food is either bad for me or requires too much effort or money

also if you really don't enjoy food maybe notice how "food" is the only word in the thread title when you strip away the bits which idiotically repeat the name of the subforum and inform us that this thread is indeed a thread rather than, idk, a dinosaur.

mediaphage posted:lol ok soylent wouldn’t satisfy me it’s not that i don’t like food, i do, that’s the problem. not being a piece of poo poo food wise is very difficult. people who don’t have a problem with food are like people who have never tried drugs telling heroin addicts that sunshine and a cold shower are all you need to feel good. i have a problem with food. in my fantasy world the solution to this problem is i never desire food again and never have to eat but in this reality, having to eat is a burden because i never want food that’s good for me so i have to go against all my feelings an desires and make choices i don’t want to make just to survive: ugh

at the moment I like to do ribs or brisket in the big pot in the oven at like 140C for 4/5 hours with garlic + stock, makes some amazing meat for dishes for incredibly little effort. obv brown it first.

PokeJoe posted:what about eggs just poach them. it took me ages to get my poaching technique right. I tried stirring the water, tried pre-cooking the eggs in the shells, tried wrapping them in cling-wrap and dunking them, all sorts of bullshit I read on the internet. it's all wrong. you just simmer some water, add a dash of white vinegar and then crack your eggs and cook for 4.5 minutes. done. no fancy gadgets needed. fun fact if you do this in your carbon steel pan the eggs will do some weird reaction with the surface and it will be hard to clean. fun!

same re poached eggs but you don’t even need the vinegar if your eggs are fresh. just simmer water in a high sided pan and boom
