I remember a friend in high school talking about his mom's homemade sloppy joes and I was like oh yeah, my mom makes homemade sloppy joes too, she uses manwich, and everyone pointed and laughed and I never went back to school again.

Seltzer instead of water in your Belgian Waffles will absolutely make your day. Plus people like to say "Seltzah"

If you're not using White Lily flour for your biscuits you can get the gently caress out

If you liked the things your mom made for you then that's about as good as it gets. gently caress those snobs. Ruddiger solidarity

Biscuits are just scones right? Flour baking powder butter and milk folks. I've literally made them with preschoolers. You can't gently caress it up.

teethgrinder posted:I'd agree, but it seems fair game when trying to emulate a corporate franchise product. I’m pretty sure that if you’re looking for a recipe to actually learn to make biscuits or whatever, that’s an entirely different audience than those that are trying to emulate a very specific Popeyes biscuit or Chick-fil-A sandwich or some chains fries. Usually those are “mix these few ready made ingredients and walla, just like the drive thru!” That person doesn’t want to be a super chef and make good food, they want to stick it to the man and make some ghetto rear end imitation of their idea of good food…. A Popeyes biscuit, without going to the restaurant

2 C flour 4 tsp baking powder 1 tsp salt 1 tsp baking soda Whisk it up Cut in 2-5 tbs unsalted butter depending on if you have company or feel like you've earned it or whatever you base your butter content decisions on. Stir in 7 fl oz milk Mix it the absolute minimum it takes to hold together, then dump the dough out onto the counter and begin carefully folding it over on itself and flattening with your hands, not a rolling pin. Each fold makes a flaky layer. Flatten to 3/4" to 1" thick, cut out as many as you can with whatever biscuit or cookie cutter you like. Take the remainders and repeat the folding, flattening, and cutting while handling as little as possible. Bake at 425F for 9-12 minutes. Thicker and larger diameter ones take longer and will have a bit of golden brown crust before the center is done. Stick em in a bowl wrapped up in a tea towel for 5 minutes before eating to let them finish. That's my method, which my wife taught me. People like them. More fat in the form of butter and higher fat milk is best, but even just 2 tbs butter and skim milk is still pretty good. There are a lot of other ways to make good biscuits too.

A Popeyes biscuit, without going to the restaurant And "in my early days" I worked at some (pretty great!) corporate restaurants, but christ they were always using shortcuts to prep food. The amazing fresh complimentary garlic onion bread was just four balls of frozen pizza dough shoved into a pan and thrown into an oven for a few minutes. The RAVED ABOUT caesar dressing was just Renee's (no idea where its reach is, but it's popular in Ontario) with an extra clove of garlic minced in. Anyway my point is the big chains just use whatever the gently caress is available to them, cheap, and fast. Nothing like that is "from scratch".

teethgrinder posted:That was essentially my point. That, I think, is something that people who haven't worked in a kitchen don't get. A commercial kitchen is far different from your kitchen at home. It does what it does well, and so do the people. Beyond that, you might not be able to make anything else out of it. Cooked at a Gulf (of Mexico) style seafood restaurant, designed and run by experienced Chinese owners, for quite a while. Our unlimited sliced garlic bread? Day old sub sandwich loaves from the local bakery, bias sliced and covered in a compound butter with diced garlic and fresh parsley. Super simple, very cheap, used ingredients we already had on hand. The only "secret" is that it was cooked fresh on a small flat-top grill on the end of the line. We went through huge rubbermaid tubs of the poo poo every day. I doubt one tub cost us more than $2.50, not including labor. That honey mustard people would rave about? Made by combining French's yellow mustard out of a 2 gallon jug, mayo out of a two gallon jug, honey, and straight up vegetable oil. My favorite was the clam chowder. $5.95 for this rear end in a top hat (me) to take a can of Campbell's, put it in a pan with 4oz water, 1oz clarified butter, 1oz homemade liquid scampi seasoning, two shakes house seasoning, heat until bubbling, then add 2oz half-and-half to turn it back white. Parsley, dash house seasoning on top. It's popularity says more about Campbell's than anything we did to it. Our two signature sauces came together on sautee station by adding 1oz pre-made liquid scampi or "bbq" seasoning to the finished protein, eyeballing the half-and-half, then thickening with cornstarch slurry. Very few dishes had an ingredient that wasn't shared with another dish or two. It was a good education on how to provide variety with few fixin's and little to no waste. Hell, outside of a few very specific things, all the things we used were to the standard we needed them to be as delivered from the back of a truck. Was it a great restaurant? Very much no, in a lot of ways. Did the people that liked it come back? They very much did.
