Welcome to the Veeky Forums challenge: COLD MAIN DISH MEGA ALPHA EDITION

I've got four ideas knocking around in my head:

Pork breast in aspic
Tacchino tonnato (slices of braised turkey breast in tuna sauce)
Hideg uborkafőzelék (chilled cucumber 'bisque,' similar to the better known Slavic dish okroshka, but blitzed smooth)
Meggyleves (chilled cherry soup)

This is shake-kun, by the way.

Which of those four I go with depends on the availability of their respective ingredients.

Weird. I changed my trip but it came up as the same one as before. Lemme see how this new one looks.

Looks good to me, my (wo)man.

...

Mamushka doll here. Thanks so much to everyone who voted. This challenge is a lot of fun and I'm grateful to be recognized. Thanks for keeping it alive, Numbaz.

It occurs to me that I have been negligent in acknowledging our own very talented and supremely gangsta Webmfag.
So, here's her excellent video trailer for the challenge as a whole.
Shit's dope yo.

I will be making revenge! I claimed it!

No problemo my pal-erino.
But watch out for
who seems hell-bent on VENGEANCE.
>Seriously though, thanks for the entry and congratulations on your 1st place.

cold fried chicken is pretty good

While I'm at it, here's the Webm Tutorial for Verticals™

post the one for webms too!

I'm ashamed as fuck to admit that I don't have that one kicking around.
Sorry.
I do, however, have the Webm Tutorial for Food Photography™
If anyone has the webm tutorial, please post it.
And, as always
>I love you

Bah, I lost it somewhere.
Where are you, WEBMFAG????

Hmm what to make, maybe a really weird ice or something

Just to clarify - would making a cold desert work?
Or does it have to be a main dish?

>COLD MAIN DISH.
>What does that mean? Well, if you can't figure this shit out you should probably stay away from the knives.

I think most deserts get cold at night naturally, so you don't really need to try to "make" it cold.

Decent bait, though.

Does it have to be served cold or cooked cold (i.e. without using high temperature)?

You have to cook it with cold.
I believe most contestants will use either an anti-griddle or chamber vacuum to achieve the 5/5 points necessary for "challenge goals".

Where would any of us be without cold on the cob?

Chamber vacced "fried" chicken.
Cold dogs.
Buffalo cold wings.

I'm in Estonia, phoneposting like a cancer. Back at it again with the oc in 2 weeks maybe.

I just ate some cold beetroot soup in Lithuania. I might recreate that for this month's entry. it's great - a little vinegary, heavy on the dill.

Hmm, pleb foods elevated to a gourmet standard... that sounds like a potential theme for some other month...
>I used too many ...s
>bugger
>bump
>bop

Gonna deep fry some chicken in some cold oil.

It has to be Served Chilled, cooking it is up to you.
Remember, cold foods have to be seasoned a bit more aggressively.
Get the fuck out of here Scalfani.

>dead last

I consider this an accomplishment, one which I will try to repeat this month

I believe in you and your toes.

I love
All of you
Hurt by the cold
So hard and lonely too
When you don't know what you're going to be cooking.
>vodka wheee!

2nd Place! That is pretty good. However, Numbaz, I have to say that you should post the full description of each person's entry as they wrote it, not your small description.
Ya Dingus might have gotten a higher score if the full description was posted.
All in all though, thank you for keeping the contest going. I'll make something "cooler than cool" this month.

Meh, someone has to come in last.

gib borneo back plz

I'm sorry you feel that way, but Borneo is no longer available.
>I did not kill her
She might still be around, but her adorable pupper might still be needing constant care.
Besides, aren't I good enough?
>plz justify my existence

I love you, drunky.

Baby, baby be mine tonight
We'll take a flight and then we'll see
That magic happens
When you wish upon a Gravy Rainbow...

Racer X, you are a great way to laugh off the cheap rot-gut vodka.
>I want your babies
>in the butt

Glad to help.

Bumpin like a humpin

Still bumpy

Trump

That looks fucking dank.
I've got dill growing
>just one plant, the other two withered to shit, dill's a bit of a weak sister
so I might be able to whip something similar up.
Thanks, my Nigga.
>tarragon is the weakest sister ever, it's a straight up bitch
Phoneposting is not cancer, it's closer to tonsillitis.
You's a foxy mama.

Salads count as cold right?

So does one perfect canned kidney bean.

Provided it is actually chilled, I don't see why not.

How are we meant to pronounce your new incarnation? Newb Oz?

Fucking hell, thanks for noticing that I left off the "m" in "Numbaz", it's the most important letter in there.

Cold pizza slice here I come

At least make the pizza yourself before chilling it.

I fully admit that I dun goofed, so the format for the vote thread is going to be a bit different on my end to allow for each entry's creator's voice to really come through.
Congrats on 2nd, bby.

I'm gonna bump
into the fire
(musical riff)

Next year I'm considering putting up prizes.
That way, after having ~8 months under my belt
>ladies
the contest under it's new drunken management can get back some of the legitimacy it had back when Hearts (pbuh) ran it.
I love you glorious mob of muffins (that makes no sense and I don't care) and want you buggers to feel appreciated.

Haven't listened to that since the mid 80's but I knew what it was immediately.
Strangely enough, it's been in my head for a couple days.
We must be on the same "cycle".

oops

My bad.
I have a VHS tape somewhere with them playing View To a Kill live for the (not MTV) music awards.

Has this on it too, I think the same awards show.

Cringe video.

But anyways, look what I just found in my nostalgia drawer (not folder, desk drawer).
Think it was the first vinyl I ever bought.

Bumped up

Numbaz, I feel that should elaborate more on the challenge. Right now it is too obscure in the ruleset. Like for example this Lithuanian soup - it doesn't have to be chilled, room temperature is what you get in most cases. You don't even have to put it in the fridge, just finish placing the ingredients, mix and serve.
I know I have a language barrier and all, but I can't be the only one who needs little more guidelines.

Obviously, I'm not Numbaz, but I'm pretty sure the rules to previous challenges apply to this challenge as well: do what you want and try to justify why it fits into the challenge when you post it. Worst voters can do is give you a zero in the 'goals' rating which, if you ace the other categories, will still put you in the top three if last month's rankings are any indication.

I wouldn't think anyone would get pissy about there the soup is meant to be served at room temperature or at fridge temperature so long as it's not warm/hot. I certainly wouldn't, at least.

Of course, you could always make a sandwich and while that will follow the challenge goals 100%, you'd get a goose egg for originality. See what I mean?

tl;dr, you do you, boo.

Bump and grind

I'm aiming on a chilled blueberry soup with peaches pecans and spiced yogurt adapted from The French Laundry Cookbook.
I may have too many cookbooks.
I am beginning to run out of shelf space.
It is a good problem to have.

Exclusive preview of my elite rethinking of a classic American dish on this year's wonderful Fourth of July.

At first I thought that was a tortoise...
Gladly, I was wrong.
>I wonder what tortoise tastes like

I'll answer my own question.
>it tastes just like dog food smells
>(probably) delicious!

Bingly Beepily Bump

Oy vey, its anudda bumpah!

Bumpan

I think I have an idea for this. I'll make it tomorrow.

I will literally love you long time.

Bumpin' from page 9.

fug, this was meant for

Bumpan for cold weather.

Next year there will be a bit more focus on my end on the points.
Because what do points mean?
Prizes.
And a bumperino for the threadily do.

Ok, here's my entry. Japanese food works pretty well with the theme, and I settled on cold soba noodles with a cold ginger-soy dipping broth. I served it with hot orange peel herbal tea.

It wasn't bad. I don't think I'd be mad if I ate it again, but I tend to prefer hot meals.

Thanks for the entry.
What should I call you with your... red cow(?) identifier?

It's an akabeko

Akabeko it is, and Akabeko you are.
Good on ya, m800.
The long time loving will have to be negotiated at a later date.

Curses! I was gonna go against my announcements earlier ITT and go the Japanese route, too.

I'm planning to make pressed cod sushi with red and green perilla since perilla plants have taken over my back garden and this gives me an excuse to use them. What else can I use perilla leaves for besides Japanese food? It just grows wild here and in no short supply. It's drowned out my parsley and lovage.

>What else can I use perilla leaves for besides Japanese food?

They're great as a wrap for KBBQ. But if you're japanese or diehard weeb, that may flip some triggers. The antagonism between japan and korea is palpable.

I'm certainly not Japanese and I'm in no way a weeb, so I'm okay with whatever use you can come up with although the green perilla aren't large enough for KBBQ wraps.

You can still be turning japanese
>I really think so
The votes will decide, and the voters will deride
This is Veeky Forums, after all, we are all autismal cunts

p'shaw.
we're growing together.

Looks good! Great idea.

No idea what I'm gonna do, but cold pork wontons with spicy sauce sound kinda good to me. So does cold leftover fried chicken.
DESU most of the food I cook gets eaten cold because I'm too drunk to eat the food I made so I wake up and eat the plate I made from last night and it's cold and shit run on sentence.
/blog

Your words flow like poetry.
Bump.

I'll be waiting expectantly.

Right on, sounds good!

Thanks! Hmmm... Maybe some sort of purposely cold pizza or chicken dish?

My words flow like a glistening golden stream
A stream with a relatively high amount of gold flakes in it, what did you think I meant?
Was it something crass?
What would possibly make you think I, an absolute drunken cunt, would ever be crass?

>Light
The first picture, the "bad" one, is better because you can see more. Can't see shit in the second one. Better the first one with some post-processing than the second one where it just looks like you're holding a black void in your hand.

>going against Webmfag
You are clearly some sort of fag.
Then again, we're all fags here.
>and we can never leave
Captcha is "close muhammadiyah"

A classic, for the classy fuckers reading this thread.
I love you like I love Mr. Mayall.
>bump the butt

Damn I miss when Nintendo had a marketing department.
Although Cooking Mama was fucking adorable.

Gonna make a bump while I hump
