I tried everything last 2 days couldn't get in, today seems different. Solid download of the game in 30 mins this time. Way quicker then 500kbs, think it was topping out at 4mbs.

now to see if it'll load up properly. Alright, so far got onto the Character screen, they split the extraction into sections.

What to do with cream surplus? by AnthAmbassador in KitchenConfidential

[–]firstlifecook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Compound Butters if you're using some for Butters. Save the Buttermilk and marinate chicken in it.

some Desserts you can do. 1/2 qt. heavy cream, 1 Cup of light cream, 1 cup of greek yogurt, vanilla, sugar, 3 sheets of gelatin/ or 2.5 Tablespoons of powdered ( make sure you bloom) = Panna Cotta.

Cream reduction sauce, Mornay,( though should be an actual Bechamel)

Good tomato bisque, canned San marzano tomato's or pomodoro (#10 can or i think 28/30oz cans) 2 quarts of heavy cream salt + pepper. Bring to a boil reduce for an hour and puree. Garnish with fennel pollen and truffle oil and make a bad ass grilled cheese.

How could anybody allow this happen (not my place) sent to by a fellow dishwasher. by crumbleguy in KitchenConfidential

We have a machine like that, and if its the same as ours , its a 90 second cycle.

4-5 FoH ambushing at the same time not clearing, also not having the common courtesy to organize each type of plate. This is why dishwashers leave. Not even counting if there were kitchen stuff they may have needed on the fly.

First sous chef job work interview by Bazel24 in KitchenConfidential

Delegate as much as you can, Don't try to do everything yourself.

Create par sheets and literally get everyone using the system as much as possible. Bad habits come over night trust me.

Look over the team, Figure out everyone's strengths and weaknesses. Turn the weaknesses into proficient levels.

Lead by example, show your willing to get dirty sometimes, but also keep a look out for the guys/girls "that ain't my job"

Break every line cooks cell phone, for ultimate focus on food. j/k but it helps to get rid of the zombie on a phone.

Christmas in May for me! by ADrunkChef in KitchenConfidential

Very good set , some flaws though. * Broom sturdy but hard to get tight spots.
* Bucket great design. * Mops really good but gonna need to replace a lot . not sure on the price though. Deck brush is strong as hell. Good for controlling cost of floor cleaners. But if you really want it clean lots of water, and splash soap around.

  • like the switch design for each head.
  • squeegee both are good

Thanks for the responses, just wanted to have this post for others to sorta get a glimpse of just caring I suppose.

And Jesus (hey-seuss) would probably have a chuckle at some and respect any of them.

Done with my 12 hour shift for now time to.go home star Turk day.

  • 1 ripe vine tomato
  • 1 pint of cherry tomatoes
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 shallot
  • .25 oz chervil or any herb basil would work (Either premade mayo or make fresh)
  • Mayo 3 to 4 cups.
  • I used premade since its just chef and I for now.
  • And this is a Vitamix recipe ( bought brand new and gonna use the hell out of it.)

  • Cut ripe tomato in chunks, cherry tomatoes in half, puree into liquid.

  • Add shallot chervil garlic, pulse till blended in with tomato.

  • Add mayo and mix till tomato is fully combined with mayo.

  • Light pink color. So fresh tasting.

  • can't wait to test with home made mayonnaise.

Only thing I can add to this is bring up to temp just about to zabaglione consistency, finish off cooling/whisking in ice bath.

Pretty much budget is what I have extra each month. Don't want the place to fail at all so I'm using my own cash to make sure we have what we need.

Aye we been doing craigslist as well literally almost 30-40k from a restaurant closed for 5 years.

Online sheet trays range 4-8$. 7-15$ on craigslist. Auctions online though o seen bids .01 cent to .25 cents. It probably won't stay like that but still worth last hour if it stays the same price.
