The way that we do soft-boiled here in Malaysia keeps them almost liquid. My personal method is:
- boil water
- take water off heat
- put in 2 eggs for 3 minutes
- take out eggs, put in cool water
- crack in bowl, mix with light soy sauce and white pepper

Worst part of living at an altitude of 7k feet isn’t how everything takes 25% longer to cook. It’s that nothing ever really browns right in the oven, it’ll dry up way before you get a Maillard Reaction.

i wont cross-post the other atrocities but these fajitas from a place in New Hampshire belong in this thread

Goondolences. I once had "Mexican" food in Newfoundland and it looked about as horrifying as that. I have no idea why anyone would try, it's just going to be the worst kind of bland but maybe it's exotic to them. It's been a decade since I lived there and there were plenty of authentic Indian, Chinese, Thai and Japanese places to get actual spices and flavors. I guess the people going to the "Mexican" place weren't looking for flavor though.

I once went to the only Taco Bell in St. John's and their menu was limited to tacos, burritos and nachos. It was actually creepy. Just beans, taco meat, cheese and tortillas in various bland combinations. Not even a jalapeno to be found.

That sounds like a recipe for warm raw eggs which sounds possibly like the worst food in the world, if someone had not also invented balut.

Don't even get me started on floor pizza

Listen, if you're living the floor pizza life your GI tract is already in the 300 movie universe, but also you gotta pay attention to the pizza, is this some fancy pizza with veggies or is it extra, extra pepperoni?

Because I've eaten the extra pepperoni floor pizza and been just fine. It's all the loving salt and preservatives that makes it ok for longer. Anything that takes it to a moist situation topping-wise, you want to avoid that if it's under 6-12 hours.

There are things that don't hold up well. I've found a lot of real Chinese food is not great re-heated. Even the stuff that re-heats okay has a significant drop-off.

Probably because Chinese food is generally cooked in woks. High heat, short cooking times and an emphasis on texture will not make for good leftovers. Even dishes supposed to be served cold often depend heavily on texture.

A while back I had beef tripe with cucumber and chili in a restaurant. It looked beautiful and was fantastic. The next day it became clear exactly how important the texture of the freshly cut cucumber was to the dish. And it didn't look great:

Tex mex/Nm mex is fantastic there. Anywhere else you basically need food focusing on a Mexican from Mexico cuisine where the staff are speaking Spanish or it will be poo poo. There’s a lot more asian immigrants in Canada, that’s why they outnumber good mexican.

Inspired by the thread, left out a couple of eggs for half an hour, then brought up water to a boil, left the eggs in at medium-high for six minutes

Then left them in just regular sink-cold water while prepping classic cheap-rear end ramen, everything came together quite nicely:

The food trend of ridiculous amounts of molten cheese pretending to be a sandwich so it's a spectacle when it explodes continues.

I wonder if anyone is ever going to take that trend and serve people like an inflated sheep's bladder full of tomato bisque and demand that you eat it with a fork. Just foods that explode into messy goo other than cheese.

Burger cordon blue with camembert instead of butter and no ham. I wouldn't eat it like a burger but its probably really really good. Or is it burger kiev with camenbert instead of butter? I dunno I just buy those frozen things every once in a while if they're on sale.

Cheese stuffed burgers are a thing, like the Jucy Lucy. They're just a much more reasonable amount of cheese. Here in Chicago the WWE wrestler Victoria opened a restaurant focused around them but it didn't last

I'm aware, but the amount of 'burger' in what we're talking about seems to be minimal compared to the breading and the cheese inside, so its more like one of those 'fancy' chicken things.

I like eating breaded and fried camenbert. But it should not melt like that. The breaded camenbert sold at aldi somehow looks better then that joke.

A lot of these newfangled burgs are good ideas ruined by being way too big and messy to eat.

Place by hear does one with fried jalapeño, shrimp, pepper jack, some kind of chipotle mayo, and onions, it'd be great. But there's way too much poo poo on there. Cut the shrimp and peppers by like 50% and drop all the regular toppings, except maybe the pickles, and use a patty that fits in the buns. Also stop buttering the outside of the bun so that your hands turn nasty. Butter the goddam insides and quickly toast.

I ordered a sandwich with beef, fried peppers and shrimp, not a standard burger with sides of same.
