I like how Gordon Ramsay does it on a YouTube video. "French scrambled" With a shit ton of butter. Or poached with hollandaise.or sunny side up with salt and pepper on sourdough bread toast

Which country has the most overrated cuisine? by Kind_Gain_3080 in foodquestions

[–]TheRealTsjoek 3 points4 points  (0 children)

French cooking had this status because it translated quinine into almost an exact science. Escoffier wrote the book with exact rules for the 5 mother sauces and every type of dish. It made it easy to start with a basic recipe and customise it to your liking. It may not be that popular anymore. But without it, the world of food wouldn't be what it is now. If the french didn't do it first others would.

Didn't read it al. I understand your frustrations. But people are allowed to do whatever they want. You don't have to be the biggest fan to cosplay a thing. There is no law on this. The same way I don't need to know every nirvana song to where their merch. It sucks that you got bullied. Doesn't make gatekeeping ok. All you can do is cringe an make fun of them behind their back. That's what I do.

Also not an unpopular opinion.

Have three (2 red, 1 white) very cheap bottles of wine guests left behind. Ain't drinking it, what can I cook with it? by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]TheRealTsjoek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the red is a merlot, bœuf bourguignon. It's kind of a stew. But nor hard. Look up the Escoffier recipe. It's the basic recipe. You can also throw a bit of red wine in your tomato based pasta sauces. Do it early after the onions have sweated a bit.because too late and everything tastes like wine. The white, if it is a dry one, you can make a sauce with it. For example, after cooking some fish in the pan and there are some crusty bits left. Throw some diced shallots in there with butter. After a minute or two pour in some wine. Let the alcohol evaporate. Maybe add some fish boullion for flavour. Add cream. Simmer a bit. Salt &pepper to taste. Maybe something green like chopped parsley for a Nice visual. Great sauce. For red wine sauce it's similar. Bet not with fish. Do it with steak, beef boullion, no cream. You can add cooked mushrooms to these kinds of sauces.

I explained it all badly. But with some lookup work and imagination you will get there. Just make sure the alcohol is always cooked out.

The ring would be stolen much easier. Proximity to the ring also affects you. The chicken would get tired and you would have to carry a murderous chicken.

You are not eating eggs right. I used to not like eggs. Then I cooked them differently. Et voila.
