/Cooking General/

Get in here you fags, eating good food is half the battle.

What are you guys favorite meals? I usually prefer healthy protein rich food thats easy to make.

Here is one I often make:
>Warm up first pan on medium-warmth and give it a bit of butter
>Put frozen salmon 'steak' on pan
>Give pepper and salt
>Turn it once every 1-3 minutes for about 10 minutes
>Once done and put on your plate, add some Blue Cheese Mayo Spice.
At the same time
>Warm up second small pan on medium warm and give it a little bit of butter
>Chop up and mince some garlic, put it in the frying butter. Stir around a littler bit.
>Put as much spinach in the pan as you feel like
>Stir around passively to make sure the frozen spinach is completely thrawed
>Keep stirring around
>Recommended: Add some salt and various spices, experiment with what you like. Spinach can taste a bit bland after many portions, so feel free to use it as a base for taste to spice up. It works wonders due to the way it 'fries' in the buttery and garlic infused pan.

Takes 10 minutes in total to make, as the spinach tends to be done first, and it can sit and cool down just enough for when the salmon is done.

Bumping with Second recipe:

>Butter Pan
>High warmth
>Take Chicken breas and cut them out in either cubes or stringes, anything that increases surface area
>Get Steak Rub / Steak Spices / Grill Spices (Anything works) and cover that shit in it. Give it a bit of salt if you feel like its needed
>Give it 30-1min of high warm, turn down to medium afterwards until its cooked all the way through. This depends on how thick your pieces are, so try your way ahead to find the balance. Don't be scared of taking anything off the pan and cutting it in 2 just to see if its done.
>Enjoy your protein and taste bomb.

What is the best advice you could give to someone learning to cook?

What kind of tools would you recommend?

How would you rid a kitchen of german cockroaches?

For the past 4 months, my mother and brother have been fucking disgusting leaving food out in the kitchen and not finishing it letting the creatures have free meals and now we've got this shit.

I want to exterminate it but at this point, I want to move out since they have no sense of self-control with hygiene.

Fucking kill me on second thought, I don't want to live anymore.

Move out bruh. You don't want to live a life of always having to clean up after those disgusting people.

>What is the best advice you could give to someone learning to cook?

Look up online for meals to just copycat, do it for a while until you feel comfortable experimenting. Don't just look for cookbooks either, sometimes finding a social media post by some rando can be an amazing experience, since they often came up with it themselves by experimenting.

Also, don't be scared of calling your parents if one or both of them is an amazing cook.

I often look for healthy things to make food out of first, then find out good ways to cook it later.


>What kind of tools would you recommend?
I have an extremely basic kitchen. I got kind of a bias here, since my brother spends a fuckton of kitchen utensils, while I prefer to just have the absolute basics.
My mindset is often How often will I use it vs. How much space and money will it take up.

A good artist only really needs a pencil and paper to make amazing art.
The Amateur tends to overfill his living space with tools thinking it will make him good.

For example, I don't own a garlic mincer.
Instead, I peel it, and crush it with the side of my knife, then cut it a bit, crush it (If needed), cut it again. If done right yous should get a good paste and no loss of precious garlic.

Incorporate them in your meals for easy free protein bruh

victorinox fibrox 8 in knife and a honing steel, a stainless steel bowl and a cutting board if you don't already have one
look up recipes online at first and experiment
alternatively go work at a kitchen and poach their recipes for yourself
