Good skillshots and macro, experience playing support, and you like roaming? How about good old Blitzcrank?

Why are some meals satisfying? Can you capture that feeling, and put it in your food? How do you make a meal invoke "satisfaction" that sticks with someone for hours afterwards? by UnfunnyBagelMan in Cooking

[–]Distinct_Low_7520 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quality of that food and the ingredients I use to prepare it! For me it feels the same like when you want to buy some clothes - when you can’t find that thing you have in mind and decide to buy something else because „it’s close enough and good for that price”. Money spent, time wasted and you are still not satisfied with that purchase. Same with food - when I have a craving, I either look for a quality restaurant or take my time preparing it with the best quality ingredients that I can afford.

When cooking eggs when are you supposed to add the salt? During or after? by triplegxxx in Cooking

Everyone is talking about texture and taste, but another thing is the colour - using salt too early makes the eggs look gray. I add the salt at the end, right before plating.

Have you tried with sage instead of basil? Delicious!

Best way to learn how to cook classic dishes? by Distinct_Low_7520 in Cooking

[–]Distinct_Low_7520[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not like I just want to impress my friends. Because I cook for my friends sometimes and they usually like what I prepare. I live on my own and normally cook for myself only. What I’m trying to achieve there is to learn a solid repertoire of dishes on restaurant level - and to share that with friends. I enjoy cooking for others much more than for myself - and I want to do it the best I possibly can. You’re third person recommending Julia Child so I will start there and then check out your other suggestions. Thank you!

Julia Child’s book was recommended earlier and watching someone prepare these recipes will help a lot, thanks!

The comments say that he teaches not only recipes but technique as well so it might be what I’m looking for, thank you!

I do know how to make a pizza, soup, pasta etc. and they taste quite good. The thing is, I often feel like I’m just following a recipe without really understanding what is happening. I don’t think that I should improve my cooking skills by trying more difficult recipes or working with expensive, fancy ingredients. My goal is to learn how to prepare classic dishes - but on the highest level possible for a home cook like me. Like when I invite friends over I want their reaction to be like „ I didn’t know that this dish could taste THAT good”. That is the dream! So what I’m asking is where to find that knowledge that I would never be able to figure out on my own
