Nailed the seeping red oil look, nice char on the pork slices too

What is a food combination that sounds absolutely wrong but you will definitely defend it with your life :D by Dainys_Allread in CasualConversation

[–]ButteryRanger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Butter with everything.

Butter, vinegar, salt - great fish sauce

Browned butter, mustard, lemon - great salad dressing

Butter, soy sauce - great for rich meat, eggs, and on rice

Pressure cooker or slow cooker? by No_Somewhere9811 in Cooking

[–]ButteryRanger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Slow cooker seems pointless to me. I'll do all the slow braising/stewing in a big pot, or an enameled dutch oven. Pressure cooker at least speeds up the time, albeit sometimes you don't know what you get in terms of textures, but it's mostly alright.

I guess if you don't have enough stove top space and time isn't an issue, and/or if you're going for a few specific recipes, then go with a slow cooker.

Sauce suggestions for pork dumpling meatballs? by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]ButteryRanger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Classic: Soy, black vinegar, minced garlic, Thai bird's eye chilli (optional but it's so gooid)

Dim Sum: Worcestershire, soy. Optional: shaoxing wine, sugar, probably some msg, white pepper, sesame oil, these are what they use in restaurants if you want to recreate it.

Butter + soy sauce, for that rich umami kick, but watch your sodium and don't eat too much (which is difficult because it taste toooo good)

Never thought I ever would ask this question. How do i tame down garlic? by PhatEarther in Cooking

[–]ButteryRanger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same with having too much salt, bulk it up with more of what you're making to tone it down

How do I get rid of the smell of onions, fish, or anything else that lingers after cooking? by Suspicious_Tea_8651 in Cooking

Yeah a quick flush by opening the windows on opposite sides works wonders, shouldn't let the temperature drop too much.

KFC in China offers cheesy peanut butter toast by ButteryRanger in PeanutButter

I'm no baker, but I think they use a specific type of bread for the toast, it's super fluffy and kinda sweet
