What can you cook?

[Angel_Grace_Blue 0]

So, we had a food folder, but it sucked, so it died. Then we had that "What are you eating right now" thread, but I guess everyone has gone on hunger strike, so it's nearly dead.

 

Hence the reason for this thread: What are some things that you can cook the shit out of? Meals that, were you to have a restaurant, would be featured. What would people say to their friends? "Man, if you want ___, you've got to go to ___'s"

 

So, I figure I'll start things off.

 

I can make, so I'm told by friends and family, pretty kick ass ribs, beef or pork. Fudge is no problem for me. Standard barbecue fare is also easy. Potato soup, too. Chicken strips/tenders/fingers/whatever are easy, when the deep fryer is working. Chicken-fried steak is also good. I'm sure I'll come up with more later.

I put bacon on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

I mostly get requests for penne rigati with vodka cream sauce, but I'm a damn good cook in general.

Some kick ass porkchops with mushroom sauce. Plus I can make the best BLT in the world.

Oh, anyone got a good meth recipe? I'm short on cash and I know some people that might buy.

Going back to the original topic. If given a recipe and ingredients, I can fix the recipe fairly well, because I'm a stickler for directions and I know what tastes good. The down side though is I'm not much for experimenting, i.e. creating new things or changing up classics

So no banana bread, pastrami, and cottage cheese sandwiches?

My favorite dishes to cook are:

 

thai curry : Thai curry paste (I like yellow and red the best), cocunut milk, bamboo shoots, pineapple, various combinations of other ingredients (bell peppers, bean sprouts, etc.).

 

mapo-tofu: The main ingredients are tofu (soft works best) and chili black bean paste. Then I use asparagus or minced pork depending if I'm in vegetarian mode or. not, along with green onions, garlic, some hot peppers, with soya sauce and chicken broth

 

risotto: Arborio rice is the key here, regular long grain is passable but nowhere near as good, particularly in texture. The basic stuff is onions, garlic and olive oil, and other ingredients depend mostly on what I have around. Two basic arrangements I like are 1) olives, asparagus, and tomatoes 2) lemon and pine nuts, possibly with some asparagus or shrimp.

 

I also make a variety of pasta dishes, usually with either italian or indian flavours.

Agent doesn't strike me as a meth user.

He's a walking narcotics encyclopedia

He knows a lot about what he knows about, but I bet he won't have a meth recipe.

I can bake the fuck out of a mean potato.

Two mean fuckers of potatoes, it would seem.

He knows a lot about what he knows about

And he does not know a lot about what he doesn't know about...

Since I haven't cooked real food in a long time, I... can pretty much only make really kickass ramen anymore. Lots of vegetables and messing with the seasoning. I make sodium taste delicious.

That's not true. The food folder was murdered in its prime.

Pretty much anything. I've been told my chicken dishes and the quiche I made were some of my highlights.

[Boon 0]

Homemade chicken fingers and chicken parm are about the only real, unique foods that I can make.

Making a jamaican rub flank steak, some broccoli and cheese soup with some leftover acini de pepe right now.

I'll handle most of the outside cooking on the grill, both at home, and at my parents house. I love making steak, chicken, and been told my porkchops are very good. As strange has it sounds, I suck at making hamburger patties.

[Nighthawk 0]

Piss is coming off slightly gay here. I mean, quiche?

[Nighthawk 0]

I was afraid to admit it, but actually I can cook. Southern. Fried chicken, grits, chitlins, collard greens, sweet potato pie, as well as some more obscure dishes like fatback, snapping turtle, both mountain and prairie oysters, squirrel, and rabbit. Sausage gravy is my specialty.

[Guest Smues]

Thanks to the George Foreman grill I can cook hamburgers. That's about it.

I just randomly point to recipes when nothing sounds good. The quiche was a result of that. Helped me get over being finicky rather quickly. I try to do the random thing at libraries once a month as well.

[Guest Vitamin X]

I'm interested in how snapping turtles would taste.

 

And since it's southern, I'd assume it'd be deep-fried.

Fried Rice with Leftover Breakfast Meat. Iron Chef I am not.

Very little. My girl can tear it up in the kitchen, though. I'd be tearing my hair out if we lived together, but I'd be too fat to continue it for long periods of time. I'll post some of her recipes later.
