/g/ here, can we have a stupid questions thread on this board?
I need some simple tips to keep my hubby happy, such as: >the best way to cook a medium-rare steak (i like)? >the best way to cook a well-done steak (he like)? >tips on making the best mouth-watering brownies? >is it true you can bake a cake in a microwave?
Lets be friends, Veeky Forums

6 minutes per side on the grill = medium. Don't flip it more than once a side. Do not press down on the meat, or poke it with prongs.
Don't ever eat well done meat.
Fudgey brownies with chewy edges = GOAT, there is no other answer.
Don't cook food in nuclear ovens. The cake is a lie.

microwave baking is the ultimate mixture of rock bottom effort and high gourmet. literally mix any kind of flour, seasoning (sweet/savory), and liquid (water), and microwave it in a cup. a minute later youll have an entirely edible morsel

>well-done steak (he like) Leave him. >bake a cake in a microwave On second thought you obviously lack the self-respect to leave him.
Lincoln Murphy
Should i use store brought brownies or mix them myself? He thinks you'll get worms if you don't cook your steak well-done

Making your own is always best.
200g roughly chopped dark chocolate 150g, plus extra for greasing unsalted butter 2 teaspoons vanilla paste or extract 150g golden (if possible) castor sugar 2 beaten eggs 75g plain flour 2 tablespoons cocoa powder 1 teaspoon salt 100g dark chocolate chips
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C (fan 160°C) / 350°F / gas mark 4. Grease a 19cm (7½in) square shallow baking tin and line the base with baking paper. Melt the chopped chocolate, butter and vanilla together in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water, making sure the surface of the water does not touch the bowl. Remove from the heat and stir in the sugar, then leave to cool for a few minutes.
Beat in the eggs, then sift in the flour, cocoa and salt and fold in until the mixture is smooth and glossy. Stir in the chocolate chips. Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and level the top.
Bake in the oven for 25 minutes, or until the top starts to crack but the centre remains gooey. Turn off the oven and leave the brownies inside for a further 5 minutes before removing. Leave to cool completely in the tin.
Cut the brownies into 16 small squares and remove from the tin. Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

>>the best way to cook a medium-rare steak (i like)? Let rest at room temp for 45-60 mins Season with salt and pepper, rub with canola or vegetable oil on each side Get the pan nice and hot Cook 4 mins Flip Cook 3 mins in a copious amount of butter, like more than you think is healthy and then more than that, and rosemary Sear on side for 1 min Let rest 10 mins Cut and plate >>the best way to cook a well-done steak (he like)? Tell him to eat shoe leather and ketchup, it's effectively the same thing >>tips on making the best mouth-watering brownies? Unironically just buy the ghiradelli brownie mix >>is it true you can bake a cake in a microwave? You can bake a baby in the microwave but it's also not recommended

>too much water in pancake mix >too thinly spread on the frying pan what do? right now i'm microwaving them in mugs for 20min in low heat, any other ideas?
Ian Evans
If the thread survives I will post my brownie recipe my mum gave me. Should be in 2 hrs.
William Cruz
Add flour and some baking powder. About 50g should be enough
Noah Roberts
add flour, maybe even eggs. Are you trying to make fluffy american pancakes or cr^epes? For cr^epes, you're looking for cream consistency. For fluffy pancakes, I don't really know.
Jaxon Gray
i want to do pancakes mugs didn't work, it's too chewy and tastes like shit if i have no means of purchasing additional materials, is there anything i can do to salvage the mix? thanks
Mason Russell
what should i make for a guy so he falls in love with me?
Alexander Bell
A good trick for fluffy pancakes is to mix the egg white alone and fold in. This makes it hold its Form and you can make small fluffy pancakes.
If you don't have any flour there isn't really anything you can do. Or at least nothing I can think of.
Jaxson Peterson
Bro, what's with the hate?
Julian Gomez
Whenever I cook meat fat ends up spitting fucking everywhere on my cooktop. Should I just get one of those plastic cover things or am I cooking stuff too hot?
Julian Peterson
I forgot to buy whole milk and now all that's left is my mom's gross skim milk
can I put condensed milk in it to make it closer to whole milk or is that a bad idea
Juan Williams
it will be sweet an gross as fuck, don't waste it like that. deal with the water milk.
Sebastian Lopez
Fuck, I meant evaporated milk. Not condensed milk
I get them mixed up all the time
Zachary Wood
I need some tips on puree. How do I do it?
Julian Morgan
Anything, but make sure to add menstrual blood. Can confirm.
Jeremiah Anderson
press the puree button on your blender
Owen Brown
I want to learn how to cook. I've been making food for myself regularly for about 8 months now, just following recipes. Sometimes I make little adjustments to the recipes now, and I can impro stir-fry and combine dishes. But I want to learn how to make original dishes myself, learn about different methods, tools etc. Any books that could help me?
Jason Torres
Steak doneness is most easily judged by touching to ascertain tenderness. There are plenty of ways but the two most foolproof to me are; 4 finger; touch your thumb to each of yr fingers and feel the pressure on the palm next to the thumb Face; cheek is rare/blue, chin is med, forehead is well Alternatively set a timer or use temp probes. For good brownies, use cocoa butter and a high quality powder. Find a recipe from a respected bakery cookbook and keep in mind that bakery is an exact science. Something that'll make him feel like life is good. Hearty stews and curries come to mind. Start with the french; read larousse.
Matthew Cook

Cameron Anderson
Hearty and meaty, generous portion size. Or go with a fancy 3 course dinner if he's a nu-male. Use mason jars.
Lincoln Mitchell
Make this!!
It's been a family favorite for four generations. It's cheap, delicious, easy, and tastes better the second day.
Don't skimp on the sausage quality, please.
Dominic Powell
You're probably putting cold meat into somewhat too hot oil. Whenever my oil spits like that, I know that I'll have to work to keep the food from browning too quickly. If it's something you have to wait before you flip, like a pancake, I know it's a goner.
The only solution is to heat up your oil with the gas on a mark or two lower, and clean up your stove between cook times with a grease-breaking soap. Don't just smear it with a wet paper towel. Check the underside of any elements over your stove. The grease got there too.
Parker Reyes
It'll taste off, still. Just add more butter or cream if you're cooking or baking with it.
Oliver Parker
Use a blender, but also be sure to chop your to-be-puréed items consistently. Make them a small and uniform size. Go in small, easy batches while gradually adding your broth or liquid. Taking a bit longer with multiple batches is better than going in all at once and making a mess with random unprocessed chunks floating around.
I once made paper with a food processor. It was fun.
Aiden Butler
I shoved a tomahawk steak up my ass and it's past well done thank you
I need it out for a bbq tonight thank you what do
Ryder Parker
Is there a way to make some high-protein, low-carb snacks without using protein powder?
Owen Flores
Any decent places online to learn to cook various types of things and styles? I will be moving to my first apartment in the fall for uni and it will be the first time I actually have to cook for myself even though I always wanted to learn to cook.
>tfw mother is a workaholic and hates cooking so no one is able to teach me about Latino cuisine and the culture that revolves around it
Robert Perez
How many different omelette recipes are out there?
Nathaniel Sanders

Chase Clark
Do you peel rhubarb before putting it into a pie? I tried and it wouldn't really peel, maybe my rhubarb is shitty.
Jack Phillips
Just eat a shit ton of fish
Nolan Morales
I'm making a bunch of burgers for a friends birthday, do I cook the bacon, onions and mushroom before I put it into the ground beef for patties? Cheese or no cheese in the patty? I've got cheddar and american.
Owen Brown
>Putting anything in the patty
Silly user, a patty is only meat. The extra little bits go on top.
Isaiah Gomez
I'm not making fine dining, gonna throw a bunch of stuff into some ground beef and probably an egg to make it all stick together and form it into patties. tomato, lettuce, more onion and cheese on top and a bun to hold the shitshow together. Just some greaseball food for some fa/tg/uys to hang out and eat.
Eli Martinez
Sounds like a fun time. Color me jealous. What sides are you thinking of?
Caleb Morgan
What if I can't afford a shit ton of fish?
Wyatt James
Probably some slaw and corn.
Wyatt Turner
Buy the big cans of mackerel or salmon. It's incredibly cheap. I've seen them at the dollar store, even. Just mash it up into a paste with some spices and mustard and stuff. Eat on rice or toast or whatever you low-carb people eat instead of rice and toast. Maybe make some cabbage rolls and eat with peanut sauce.
Benjamin Green
saute onion, carrot, celery, and mushrooms. let cool. mix with meat/egg/breadcrumb mixture make patties and cook as normal shit's great as for seasoning, some montreal or salt and pepper is all you need
