steinrokkan posted:Lifehack: It doesn't matter what heat source you use if you boil all your food. That sounds like my grandmother. Everything she cooked was cooked to hell. In a good way, but still cooked to hell. All meat was rinsed and wrung out until it was gray. Then you boil the crap out of it in wine and other things. It always tasted awesome. Electric was perfect for her. Crack 'er up to high and boil the crap out of it. If you do it right, it works. All the connective tissue breaks down. Don't serve it right away. After it's done, put it on low for a billion years. You're shooting for a temperature right in the danger range; blood warm is a good target. The meat just falls apart. Even better, let it sit out on the stove over night with the burner off. Even better. The best stews are just a little rotten. YMMV.

It's Baka or Bako. She was ethnic German so we used Oma. Our family is Donauschwaben. However, we always wondered why she had such a big mortar and pestle.

To be honest, I like cooking on gas, but gas is kind of a pain to own. If you don't live somewhere with a pipeline, you need to have tanks refilled and as someone who has had some absolutely poo poo gas stoves, pilot lights can sometimes be a pain. Cleaning is worse than electric and a hell of a lot worse than induction. They are nice, but the convenience factor makes me prefer induction. I am not cooking at a level where I need the benefits of gas, and if I want to roast some peppers or something on a flame, I do in fact own a grill. Lifehack: To cook your food faster, invest in a muffle furnace and cook all your food at 1200 Celsius.

If you live somewhere with a gas line and have a gas stove, you also have an apocalypse alarm. If no gas is coming out of the mains, you can be reasonably sure that civilization has collapsed.

Or if you live somewhere with a Waffle House, they serve coffee, at least, as long as they have any electricity/gas. If the Waffle House is closed, well, you're probably already dead or wishing you were.

I don’t follow. Are they saying you’re supposed to cook the noodles or whatever inside the strainer and just lift it out of the pot when done?

You put the strainer in the put, and put it upside down over the sink to let the water go out without the noodles.

they do make strainers you can clip or otherwise hold onto the pot and tip the water out but idk why you'd need to leave sad plain pasta in the pot unless you're dumping cold jarred sauce on it

Whenever I mix the spaghetti and the sauce it always seems to lose some of its flavor the next day, so I leave them seperate. When I don't it all in one sitting oh my god I have no willpower or self-control somebody help me

Sauce stays separate because everyone has different preferences on how much sauce should be on it. When I'm cooking for myself I just tilt the pan until most of the water is out then dump in some sauce because gently caress it, I'm going to eat it straight out of the pan anyway.

I always save some of the pasta water, like 1/3 cup, and add it back to the noodles. Helps the sauce stick.

A FUCKIN CANARY!! posted:That's what I've always seen. Sauce stays separate because everyone has different preferences on how much sauce should be on it. Pasta is served in a strainer that has been laid on some paper towels on the kitchen counter. Also on the counter is a freshly opened jar of sauce and a canister of parmesan cheese. Possibly an open bag of salad is sitting on the counter as well, with some italian dressing in a squeeze bottle beside it. All dinner participants serve themselves from the counter and take their plates into the living room where everyone is eating and watching a network TV comedy. That is how a pasta dinner is done!

My God, I can taste the Italian dressing. Can we slice up a supermarket "baguette" and smear some chunks of cold butter on it, too? I have been thinking about getting a gas range since seeing how close the gas line is to the back of the stove in this house (about 8 inches, through an interior wall). But I like the idea of getting one of those little butane burners first, just to see how I like it compared to induction.

Propane burners are even better, because with a simple adapter hose you can hook them up to the cheap as hell 20 lb. tanks.

I always add a couple of spoonfuls to the sauce, it pulls everything together nicely. Not really a lifehack, but I'm sure you could use it to lubricate door hinges or something.
