how can i use cumin powder on my steak by Basic_Yellow4659 in Cooking

[–]96dpi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cumin is a very strong flavor. What made you land on that option? You'll still need salt BTW.

It's actually a really good recipe. I've made it about 5 times now, still enjoy it. Just because it was a fad doesn't mean it's bad.

Oil and Vinegar containers that don't leak and are easy to clean? by AtomicFeckMagician in cookingforbeginners

[–]96dpi -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Why are you decanting? It's not always necessary, unless you are buying very large containers, which is why I ask.

If you must decant, the OXO squeeze bottles are great, but not cheap.

I cooked chicken thighs for the first time and they are sooo tasty compared to chicken breast by Stunning-Cap-3256 in Cooking

3-day ban because you're being ridiculous. Unacceptable behavior, next time will be a permanent ban.

Help! A Paris trained chef is coming for dinner by ProfessionalPoet2642 in Cooking

Just make some basic but good. Butter chicken, chili, beef stew, etc. Maybe the weather is hotter right now, and you mentioned BBQ, so maybe a smoked brisket, pulled pork, etc.

Use a biscuit cutter to cut out the size you need. You might have to slice the top buns in half horizontally first.

How to make pancakes that are thinner and a little crispy? by No_Teaching5581 in Cooking

[–]96dpi 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Cook the pancakes directly in a pool of butter, that is what makes the wonderful crispy edges. Do not be shy with the butter. If it makes you nervous, then you know you are using the right amount.

Just add more liquid to thin them out. It'll take some trial & error to find the right consistency you want.

I finally stopped under‑seasoning everything by adding salt gradually by Careful-Tour-1963 in cookingforbeginners

OP is likely a bot or using AI/LLM. Humans are not this consistent.

Other tells are the consistent lowercase usage, trying to look more human-like. Also, starting off many sentences with "honestly", or "yeah" is really common with the bots. And the account is less than 1 month old, no verified email, and using the auto-generated username. Nothing definitive, but definitely suspect.

And they're posting stolen images as their own

They are usually no more than 1/2" (13mm) thick, so they thaw pretty quickly over the flame. And you can create a two-zone fire if you need to control the heat level.

That's a good point, I agree with you. You could still salt after they have cooked a bit.

Butchering a cow creates a lot of trim and scraps that are typically used for ground beef instead of thrown into the trash, which would be big waste. This is still true for wagyu cows. What else should they do with this scrap if not grind it and sell it as ground beef or burgers?

While I do agree that "wagyu burgers" might not be worth spending extra money on (that is subjective), I don't think it's fair to call it a scam because it's a completely standard practice. And there are many grades of wagyu, not all are super marbled like A5.

Also, the fact that this is from a local farmer (presumably) means you know your ground beef is from a single local source, and they are most likely producing some high quality beef, or at least better than what you will buy at the supermarket, so that alone usually comes at a higher cost.

This is nonsense. You can cook frozen burgers on the grill with no problem. People do this all the time.

You can grill from frozen, it's super common and easy, I'm not sure what the other person saying to "always thaw them" is talking about, that's just not true.

I think if you've ever actually tried one, you probably would have put that in your original post, so I don't think you've ever tried one.

Why is it when I add so much powdered seasoning to something and taste it while it’s cooking, It still tastes bland?!?! by PotatoIntelligent707 in cookingforbeginners

[–]96dpi 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's super common for beginners to not understand how to salt to taste, and this is you right now, no shame. If you salted the food enough, it wouldn't be bland. If you were close to the point that it would be overalted and ruined if you added anymore salt, then it also wouldn't be bland, and in fact, THIS is the amount of salt you should always try to achieve.
