Hey guys and gals being a 1st generation Frenchman 🧀 🍷 I naturally know how to cook. If anyone needs help to not eat zog fuel and cook some basic dishes please don't be afraid to ask. Or even more complex stuff making dinner for a date or for your family, the only way to learn how to cook is at least try.

@Louis Loire - NY you're going to love this... This morning I baked a loaf of Bordelaise

How have no women posted in here yet?

2017-07-24 20:34:25 UTC  

Also, your bread looks so light and airy. I'm jealous. I'm still trying to get the hang of baking

2017-07-24 20:35:21 UTC  

@Erika haha we just opened the server 30 mins ago

2017-07-24 20:35:32 UTC  

@Erika It's all in the technique... recipes don't help much unless you understand how bread works (kneading, proofing, gluten development, fermentation, etc.)

Roast cumin and paprika chicken, y'alllllll 👩🏼‍🍳

Man that looks incredible

2017-07-24 20:38:30 UTC  

This nigg at my work pronounces carbs curbs

2017-07-24 20:39:00 UTC  

@Deleted User excuses lol

2017-07-24 20:39:57 UTC  

@Marlow thank you! yeah, I haven't gotten the hang of all of that. I'm more of a savory food cook. Oddly enough, the only thing I can bake like a pro are French macarons.

2017-07-24 20:40:47 UTC  

@Erika this is kind of what I'm talking about https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yg5nLQVg4VY

2017-07-24 20:41:24 UTC  

@Alexander B. - SC I had no idea. breddy cool

2017-07-24 20:41:39 UTC  

this video goes over some of these principles, if you REALLY want to get into bread baking I highly recommend this book https://www.amazon.com/Fundamental-Techniques-Classic-Bread-Baking/dp/158479934X

2017-07-24 20:42:04 UTC  

if anyone is into fermentation I've recently gotten into that. I've made a few batches of sauerkraut and kimchi with my 10L crock

2017-07-24 20:42:27 UTC  

I want to get into bread baking, but I also don't want to weigh 200lbs and live in a constant state of carb coma. The struggle is real.

2017-07-24 20:43:00 UTC  

@Marlow do you bake using sourdough bread?

2017-07-24 20:43:02 UTC  

I know what you mean.... luckily it's prohibitively complex enough to the point where I only bake a loaf every two weeks or so

2017-07-24 20:43:16 UTC  

@Marius yes, please. Share your recipes for fermentation. I love all fermented and/or pickled veggies.

2017-07-24 20:43:26 UTC  

yeah bordelaise is like a mild sourdough, you use a bit of your own sourdough starter, not as much as you would in a true sourdough

2017-07-24 20:52:00 UTC  

The best food is European anyway

2017-07-24 20:52:08 UTC  

Sorry not sorry

2017-07-24 20:52:15 UTC  

asian food's pretty good, tho

2017-07-24 20:52:24 UTC  

Anyone like Thai food?

2017-07-24 20:52:36 UTC  

My wife and I love it... also indian food

2017-07-24 20:52:52 UTC  

Very fond of Indian food

2017-07-24 20:53:07 UTC  

basically if you're going to make anything vegan taste good, you're going to need to look into Indian and Asian techniques and flavors

2017-07-24 20:53:31 UTC  

Should rename this channel #foodporn

2017-07-24 20:53:34 UTC  

thai food is great and healthy

2017-07-24 20:53:40 UTC  

but Euro food is best by far

2017-07-24 20:53:55 UTC  

I'll post my recipe for a fish head tom yum coconut soup. Sooo good

2017-07-24 20:54:34 UTC  

that sounds fantastic

2017-07-24 20:55:44 UTC  

@Louis Loire - NY for real. My grandma taught me a lot of Polish recipes. Some nights I just have to have a Polish meal of latkes, golabki, pierogies, and kielbasa.
