I bet you'd be surprised at how good a new one is. Mine seem to slowly degrade, not fast enough for me to ever really notice, but when I get a new one it works much better.

Chef De Cuisinart posted:Please explain to me how you'll get the flavor of dry juniper into a turkey with just salt, thanks. Well in the article he talks about brining with spices and different liquids, etc. He tried all of that and concluded that the flavor difference is almost entirely in the skin and you're much better off just using salt and applying the aromatics later. It makes sense to me.

There's no way your oven is so bad you can't bake a loaf of bread. I bake bread in a $30, 25L one of these: http://www.aliexpress.com/price/changdi-electric-oven_price.html and it works once you figure out a few oddities of the oven.

What's so good about it? I have a random crappy can opener and I've never noticed problems with it.

I use a Hario Skerton, which is a cheap manual burr grinder, with a modification (mine is a 3D printed part that fits to the shaft) which improves consistency on coarser grinds.

In Asia people don't seem to devein shrimp. They're just dumped live into boiling water, and you bite the heads off and peel them after cooking and eat the vein. Tastes fine that way to be honest.

I got a $30 countertop oven from a Chinese brand that's 50% bigger than the Breville Smart Oven and it works fine. I even cooked a 14 pound turkey in it this Thanksgiving.

In rural China, this is pretty common still and what a lot of people are doing their wok cooking on: e: And the induction thing isn't really what people want, it's just that in urban China there are a lot of incredibly crappy apartments that don't even have a real kitchen, so people are buying these portable induction things to make do: http://item.jd.com/3563508.html fart simpson fucked around with this message at 01:31 on Jul 24, 2017 |

bamhand posted:Everyone I've eaten with has used their hands. Like fish bones, pork short ribs, chopped chicken pieces full of bones, etc. Maybe it’s regional but everywhere I’ve been the normal thing is to hold the piece up to your mouth with your chopsticks and use your teeth and lips to separate the meat from the bones
