Thread 40625202

It's really not hard, you're honestly probably worse at it than cis men. Aren't you meant to have women's brains?

>>40625202 (OP)
im a worse cook than my bf because he had to feed himself as a kid while i always had food on the table

>>40625202 (OP)
That's just a westoid problem. Even western cis women can't cook for shit, when I watch how some of my female friends from the US, UK, Germany cook, I can't help, but think that if my grandma saw that, she'd slap them on the hands with a wooden spatula. Bitches leave like 1/5th of a potato after they're done "peeling".

I wasn't allowed in the kitchen

>>40625202 (OP)
You're a bad cook, not me. Ever since I was a kid I always helped my mom and grandmother around the kitchen and later cooked for the family and later myself or my ex (that had many food allergies so I had to be a bit more creative then).
But it's also central/eastern Europe and not the western world so things here might be a little different I guess.
That video was painful to watch tho

>>40625202 (OP)
>woman is when kitchen
Also, humanity worked hard to develop ways to live without wasting a shit ton of time on making food. Cooking used to be a necessary evil. Not anymore.

>>40625874
>Cooking is evil
Lmao for sure

>>40625202 (OP)
my cooking actually rocks and my boyfriend loves it.

>>40625202 (OP)
I'm an amazing cook and my partner gropes me when I cook

>worse at it than cis men
Doesn't say much since cis men are the best at cooking.

im the best cook in my family lowkey

>>40626348
same.

>>40625202 (OP)

Top chefs are all men

Home cooking is better than overpriced restaurant stuff. I don't care if my omelette is served with flowers and butterflies, I only care about the taste.

>>40626487
>home cooking is better
Not unless you're a great cook. I'm with you on the frugality but restaurant food isn't all fancy BS

>>40626523
Most people don't know how to season their food and it's bland as hell.

>>40626535
Seasoning food like they do at restaurants every single day would give you gastritis in under a year.

I hate being useles. im stupid, bad at school, cooking, cleaning, working, sex, talking, videogames, physical sports, basic hygiene, eating, and litterly any other normal human functions I should've bought fentanyl pills to od on rather than wasting estrogen on some useless moid like myself :((

>>40626552
You should never constantly eat restaurant tier food but it is objectively better on a culinary level

>>40626393
DADDY PLEASE

>>40625202 (OP)
im good at cooking
i loved watching cooking shows as a baby, later worked in restaurants, and have a good sense of smell which is the secret to being good at cooking imo

>>40625202 (OP)
All trannies should become great at cooking to give themselves comparative advantage in the dating market over cissies who can't cook

>>40626723
false. the secret to being good at cooking is butter. and lots of it.

>>40626754
dude yes but this is the other dimension to cooking. people who don't have a good sense of smell will use rancid butter or overheat it and ruin it

>>40625202 (OP)
Is that actually a tranny cause I saw it get posted on /ck/ and nobody had a troon meltdown so I assume it's a documented cis woman. But I'm reasonably comfortable in the kitchen and I can decent meals from just whatever is around without a recipe. This seems like more of a dull knife issue, and I can't imagine what recipe would require the carrots to be cut in half length wise, so maybe it's also an inexperience with a knife issue. There is definitely a loss of basic culinary skills in the American public as making meals at home is simply a luxury people's families can't afford.

>>40625202 (OP)
I am good at cooking though. I cook for myself and my roommate and our friends come over a lot to eat my cooking too.

>>40626938
As a europoor, how come making meals is a luxury in the US? You guys can't buy some potatoes, chop them up, add salt and butter and dill, and boil them to satisfaction? Or chuck some chicken or fish into the oven? Or make some basic pasta? Why?

>>40627080
okay to be fair I could be talking out of my ass as I grew up middle/upper class, and I would really like to read more about this. Here is what I would imagine the situation looks like for the working poor in America:

The minimum wage has not kept up with the cost of living requiring you to work 50-60 hours plus a week. Usually these people work in hospitality where they add two part time positions together. This creates inconsistent working hours sometimes making it hard to schedule grocery trips or even keep fresh food around your house. America has a huge rural population so the length of time to travel to the grocery store and back can be up to two hours. It is much more appealing to make a quick stop at that fast food restaurant that is on your way home or maybe just buy 10 frozen dinners at the grocery store and not bother with the whole thing. When you grow up in a family like this as a child you don't develop the knowledge of the 15 minute quick baked fish recipes that you and I know and just keep going to the ten minute fast food place. Situation gets worse with the Zoomers who are more likely to be single these days making the cost per time analysis of making food at home even worse. Again I don't have any data to present, but if I could find a working poor person who lives in the places I am thinking of, which I have visited, I can imagine they might provide reasons along these lines for why they don't cook at home, if they don't.

>>40627299
they're just low iq

>>40625202 (OP)
My bf eats and praises anything I make. I can make even simple thrown together meals delicious. He says I belong in the kitchen.

>>40627399
I'm sorry are you the euro anon? I know this is just a shitposting thread making fun of some streamer so forgive me but I think it is in fact low IQ to simply call people stupid and shrug your shoulders. Sociological analysis can help us understand problems and solve them. Cooking a basic meal is not something that requires great intelligence. Why would you argue from the position that people are innately hopeless? How does that help humanity?

Anyway here is a modern article I found from looking around the internet.
https://news.ncsu.edu/2019/03/why-home-cooking-isnt-possible-for-everyone-and-what-we-can-do-about-it/
It actually mentions a few of the things I thought about originally so I don't think the reasons I came up with are fantasized at all.

>>40627577
no sorry i'm nta but i read your post and it makes sense but the simplest explanation is that they're low iq

>>40625202 (OP)
eh it's pretty normal these days
all the people into cooking their own meals I've met are cis men
occasionally I'll meet a woman who likes baking though

>>40627635
I mean sure I do accept that position. Some people simply cannot achieve a high school diploma. Some people are simply going to be poor and work shitty jobs, I am not that much of a head-in-the-clouds idealist. I just don't believe we should throw our hands up and accept that their lives should be full of suffering because of that. I think most people would choose to sit around a table and eat a meal they prepared with their family if they could because they are human and that feels good.

>>40625202 (OP)
This webm spiked my anxiety

>>40626938
>I can't imagine what recipe would require the carrots to be cut in half length wise
Julienning? Are you sure you know how to cook?
>>40627080
It's because Americans work like 80 hours a week lmao

>>40627781
i think they might prefer to live the way they do desu

>>40627299
>so the length of time to travel to the grocery store and back can be up to two hours. It is much more appealing to make a quick stop at that fast food restaurant that is on your way home

Why is there no grocery store on the way home?
This is really just a society-wide skill issue of americans. Just build a Walmart instead of a McDonald's, it's not that hard.

>>40627299
An underrated aspect is that the low cost of restaurant food and food delivery enabled by poor wages and lack of benefits for workers in those sectors disincentivizes home cooking.

>>40627822
maybe not. What were they cooking in this? If you were making any stew type dish you wouldn't cut them like this. If it's some kind of baked good I would boil and puree the carrots probably. Roasted carrots then? I guess I would chop the carrots crosswise into 2 inch chunks before cutting in half lengthwise.

>>40627399
this but un-ironically

goyslop is proven to lower IQ and americans stuff themselves with it

>>40627935
i wasn't being ironic lol

>>40625202 (OP)
Nail polish while cooking eww

>>40625202 (OP)
if you want to be good at cooking have the time (some anons made good points abt why less people cook now), you can literally just do that. follow easy recipes over and over incorrectly until you can do them correctly, and then harder recipes until you get a feel for it and can start making rlly good stuff without needing a recipe. not everyone can be gordon ramsay but anyone can be a very good cook just by practicing. when i met my gf years ago i could barely cook eggs because nobody liked me enough as a kid to teach me, and i was embarrassed, so i just put in the time and learned, now im a pretty great cook. its very fulfilling to see someone eat something youve cooked and enjoy it, even at my most anorexic i would constantly cook for my gf and just not eat

>>40627898
I mean generally yes. Not Walmarts but many smaller grocery stores similar in size to a fast food restaurant. US has something like that: Dollar General. And it's not exactly doing great work delivering fresh groceries to Americans for a variety of reasons that you can read about if you want. Dollar general is one of the most profitable stores in rural America, which really makes you think.

For fun you can go to their website and put together a homecooked meal plan:
https://www.dollargeneral.com/c/food-beverage

>>40628185
>Your request was rejected.
guess it's one of those sites that bans you because they're too stupid to figure out how to comply with GDPR

but I guess it's a store full of goyslop, what they call a "food desert"?

>>40628345
Okay actually looking at it I mean it's not as bad as that. I am surprised. They have dairy and eggs, canned beans and frozen chicken breasts, pasta and rice. No produce section and I can't find herbs and spices. I actually think I could make it work. This sort of how cheap can I make it game is appealing to my autism tbqh, maybe I will try it one day. I used to do the same thing with how few calories I can eat per day. Is throwing it all into a crockpot or casserole really developing "cooking skills" tho?

>>40628543
>Is throwing it all into a crockpot or casserole really developing "cooking skills" tho?
no, but even this already puts you in the top 30% of cooking skills in the general population

>>40626754
if you have to add butter to everything you cook to make it good, then you aren't good at cooking. you should be able to cook all types of food, from heavier meals for special occasions to lighter healthy fare that is still satisfying for every day eating. I would argue that the latter is much more difficult to pull off consistently.

>>40625202 (OP)
i was forced to cook and clean for others my whole life and as a result i now know how to cook and clean for my now wife.. who should also know how to cook and clean...

nice garnishes! love pepper with pasta. is that carbonara? if yes, you should try more fatty guanciale maybe

>>40629687
> is that carbonara?
yess it is :3
im really proud of the sauce desu! the carbonara i was served before was all scrambled eggs.
> you should try more fatty guanciale
i sadly couldnt find it in the grocery store so i had to resort to bacon ...

naah dw i bet it's delish either way. you do a real nice job.

>>40626783
>people who don't have a good sense of smell will use rancid butter
who is really using rancid butter in this day and age? pretty much nobody in the western world. theres also tells other than smell that apply. smell has little to do with cooking, youre not ratatouie, youre a retard. taste your food, fucking dumbass

>>40625202 (OP)
>implying women can cook
lmao.

>>40627080
its not really a "luxury" people are just tired as fuck and its really really easy to press 6 buttons on your phone and get some brown guy to drive a burrito to your house. as a fitness enjoyer i cook all my meals simply because i need lots of protein but if i was a tiny foid i can imagine easily subsisting off of random restaurant food.

>>40630257
you done little guy?

I'm a guy and really want a bottom leaning bf I can cook for. If he's good at cooking too that'd be even better

Imagine saying this while looking at restaurant prices and inflationary pressures. Learn to cook you fiscal degenerate.

>>40626579
I eat restaurant tier food almost every meal, keep my macro balance reasonable, and don’t eat animal products it’s a skill issue. If you go to really good restaurants they do more than drown food in butter. Lots of dishes are actually pretty low fat because it can mask more delicate flavors

>>40627934
julienne is appropriate for pickling, stir frying, braising, or garnishing among other things can you really not think of foods that are stews roasts or bakes?

autistic transbian with deep hatred in its eyes offers you this bowl of noodles. do you accept?

I've scarcely seen anything less attractive in written form. And without any profanity either, that's genuinely atrocious.

Not reading this thread just dropping some cooking tips that will make you all less embarrassing.
1. Make all the food pieces roughly the same size so they cook at the same rate, and you won't have bits that are burned or undercooked compared to the rest.
2. To keep food from sticking to your fry pan, heat the pan FIRST to the point where if you splash some water droplets, they evaporate immediately. Then once you put the food in it,don't touch the food for a while and it will pop off by itself. Then you can turn it over.
2.5. If you fry some meat and have meat scrap shit left all over the pan, fry some veggies after and they'll clean it up for you.
3. You can either cook things for a short amount of time at high heat, or a longer amount of time at lower heat. Longer at lower heat will make better meat dishes. Also just toss some water in the bottom of the baking sheet, it makes everything work better.
4. Bacon grease or fat is always better than oil and makes your food taste more like a restaurant. Unless the recipe is Italian and calls for olive oil. Olive oil is good. Other oil is trash.
5. Just buy a mixer if you're gonna be doing any doughs, trannies don't have the arm strength or stamina for mixing long enough to get the proper consistency.
6. Avoid meme kitchen gadgets. Stick to the basics. Big spoon. Spatula. Pot. Pan. Tongs. No hamilton beach breakfast sandwich maker type shit. If it sounds convenient, it actually just takes up space and takes forever to clean when you do use it.
7. Sharpen your knives properly. If the food is squishing under the knife it's dull. It should just glide right through. A tomato is a good test. You should be able to slice the tomato without squeezing all the stuff out of it. Similar to meme gadgets, you only really need like two big knives. Serrated for meat and bread, and straight for everything else.

>>40636447
>olive oil is good other oil is trash
next you'll tell me you should fry in it, you dumb fucker

>>40635856
YES

>>40636452
I made it pretty clear you should be frying in fat. Olive oil is used for other stuff.

>>40636452
>falling for the sneed oil jew
oooooh whichever shall I choose, canola? corn? peanut? sunflower? unspecified "vegetable" squeezings? absolute fucking madness, what does any of those things have to do with an edible meal? you've been played like a fiddle.

>>40636470
let me guess, carbs are poison too?
I can hear the lack of glucose scraping its way through your rusty neural pathways you dumbfuck fad drone.
Go swallow more protein powder and supplements.
You are the exact sort of retards that were prancing around in the 90s yelling about spice being unhealthy and boiling raw ass chicken, because you're such a smart little retard, yes you are. Much smarter than the other boys and girls, so long as all your theories are untested and there's no consequence to the dumb shit you spout. None of you drywall crunching newts have any valid education as a dietician ergo your opinion isn't even dirt, because dirt can grow something of value, unlike your decroded brown matter.

>>40636470
nigga what the fuck is wrong with peanut oil
its just pressed peanuts

>>40628185
cant you just buy a big bag of pasta, some frozen mixed veggies, passata and some kinda meat (chorizo can make pasta taste really yummy and stores in the pantry for like half a year, but its a processed meat, im sure 'muricans have some equivalent). all of this stuff will last months if kept in proper condition
you dont HAVE to be eating fresh stuff to stay healthy

>>40640237
Yeah but fresh veggies are the best tasting thing in the world and frozen are far from it

>>40625202 (OP)
idk abt you guys but cooking is pretty easy for me.

>>40642031
for cheap peas and sweet corn fresh and frozen are bascially the same
it gets iffy when you start adding carrots and frozen broccoli and cauliflower is ass
anything else will just taste like ass probably

>>40627080
dont listen to the other retards. i work 40 hours a week at a retail job and i make more than enough to cook for myself. many people in america are just very retarded with their money. like really, really, really retarded with their money. and they refuse to do anything to improve their situation, they'd rather just bitch and moan on anonymous image boards

>>40643260
I like frozen peas in curry sure and even frozen corn has uses but fresh grilled sweet corn is pretty much a delicacy when it’s in season (and 25c)

Yeah this is all my coworkers. Dumb bastards have $700-900 monthly truck payments, child support/alimony, pay more for a toolbox than some people pay for a car, smoke, drink, eat out 10x per week, buy lottery tickets, and have the gall to complain they can't afford anything. Meanwhile I make them seethe just by existing because I'm not retarded, and thus have disposable income on the exact same paycheck.

Cis men are by far the best cooks I know and all the top chefs are all cis men it's actually a very manbrained activity. Baking on the other hand is fembrained.
