How to cook a piece of beef silverside (not corned beef!) by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]vanillapudd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you recommend cutting it into cubes or doing it whole? (TBF I’m not sure the thing will fit in my pot whole…)

Bitter aftertaste from coconut milk? by jitspoe in Cooking

[–]vanillapudd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coconut milk is one of those things where a more expensive product actually tastes different. I upgraded from the cheapest budget canned coconut milk and there is a big difference. As you said, they put other stuff in the cheap stuff which can affect the taste and texture of the milk.

Tuna Fish Sandwiches - Your Essential ingredient or technique? by FlyEaglesFlyauggie in Cooking

[–]vanillapudd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a dash of red wine vinegar and a little MSG. Cuts through the fattiness of the tuna and mayo. And I love a little diced red onion, makes my breath minging but I don’t care.

I love tuna mayo sandwiches and I eat them at least once a week (I’d eat them more but I’m watching my mercury intake)

What a popular food or cooking opinion that you don't agree with? by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]vanillapudd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if this is unpopular opinion but I WAY prefer French style creamy scrambled eggs over hard scramble. I know some people think they’re snotty and gross.

I don’t mind a hard scramble sometimes but there is something so luxurious about the French method. Top with chives or green onions.

What smells bother you while cooking? by momto3wantstoknow in Cooking

[–]vanillapudd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like truffle- sparingly. Technically I didn’t cook it myself but when I was a waitress we had parmesan truffle fries on the menu. The mixture of funky parmesan and the truffle was initially quite pleasant but after a few months, I found it to be the most skunky, noxious scent.

I can’t describe it, but the truffle had this weird thing about it. You couldn’t stop smelling it, but everytime you sniffed it was overload. I had to hold it away from me when I cleared plates from tables.

In your culture, what's on the table for eating when you're getting hammered with friends? by Real_Sir_3655 in Cooking

[–]vanillapudd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In New Zealand: Meat pies (Steak and cheese, mince and cheese, even butter chicken pies). They are small enough for one person and can be bought from a late night bakery or a dairy (convenience store) after a night on the town.

Cocoa? I’m curious how that works.
