/ck/ - Food & Cooking

In the West, people eat fried chicken. In the East, people eat fried chicken. I guess my point is I don't know what my point is.

Westoid cucks cut their own food at the table like neanderthals.
Asian aristocrats have their food cut up in the kitchen by the cooks.
Westoid virgins serve food on individual plates like they scared somebody going to steal their food.
Asian chads share with his brothers and serve food family style.

Peppercorns Kitchen in Evanston, Illinois has this very spicy fish soup that is their signature dish. The place is complete with a picture of Anthony Bourdain shaking hands with the chef hanging on the wall. As a white person, I highly recommend it.

Asians don't roast their meat properly and don't use fonds but just liquid msg aka soy sauce on everything.

West prepares beef better than East.

East makes better fish sauces. Worst-ear-share sauce is truly worst.

Western cooking: flavors built around complements
Eastern cooking: flavors built around contrasts

Also chopsticks vs forks I guess. That basically sums it up.

>>16808772
Idk idk it makes me super thirsty and sleepy.

Salty foods do this too but adding msg to a food with salt just makes It more extreme I guess.

European and european-derived cuisine makes it a point of pride to deliver a variety of subtle flavours derived from all the ingredients present. Dirt world cooking just smothers everything in spices and taste enhancers, brings out one or two flavours most people like, and calls it a day.

You're a fucking retard.

Well educated people in the West don't chew with their mouth opened and make minimum noise. East asians slurps the shit out of everything while making more noise than a dog which has been starved for 2 weeks.

woah I never thought of it like that

>share food
>get less of it for myself

You seem to be the racist, as is very common with your types. I simply don't give a shit about your fucking nations and don't want to visit them.
If you want to call me racist for disagreeing with you then you must have been shillary supporters since that's the best that they can do.
Are you still seething in your closets because Trump beat your annointed one?

Yeah crudely hacked with a cleaver and still full of bones

SEA cuisine generally uses a lot of contrasting flavors (sweet, spicy, sour, etc.), while Western cuisine tends to be simpler and focus on salty/savory flavors.

With some exception, Spanish/Portuguese cuisine uses spicy flavors occasionally, American barbeque uses sweet/spicy flavors.

I prefer meats prepared in the Western tradition, it's close with seafood.

>>16810251
Western cuisine uses sour flavours like wine and vinegar. Also sweetnes from mirepoix. Flavours are just much more subtile.
Biggest difference is that western cuisine uses braising heavily while many eastern cuisines cook most dishes in like 5 minutes.

>>16807962
east asians have the blandest food on the planet. even white people have better food than them.

>>16807962
asian vegetables: stir fried, crunchy and delicious, I actually enjoy eating
western vegetables: either canned, steamed, or salad. Salad dressing tastes like nuclear waste

>>16807962
Western cooking has a tendency to blend flavors together while east asian (especially Japanese) tries to keep flavors somewhat separated even in dishes with a lot of flavors. I have no idea how the nips do that btw.

>>16807962
Asians tend not to roast or bake much and prefer steaming.

Why are westies and easties so tsundere for each other kawaii uguu

why is japanese cuisine so hilariously bad?
the main staple dish of nipponland is sushi which is literally just fish on rice
their curry is just watered soup
ramen is just inferior version of authentic Chinese noodles
even instant noodles is taiwanese (Chinese) and not from japan

why could the nips not make a satisfactory cuisine?

>>16808582
I use it in my burgers

how can one opinion be so wrong in every way

I think this sums it up really nicely.

Western cuisine is largely driven by the french approach to cooking, which is largely about deepening and enhancing existing flavors. Braises, stews, pan sauces built around fonds developed from searing are all examples of this and fundamental techniques of western cooking. Seasoning is relatively minimal, and again designed to mostly enhance existing flavors in the ingredients.

Asian food instead is heavily influenced by Chinese cooking which attempts to layer and balance flavor in many different forms: sweet, salty, spicy, sour, all coexisting in one dish. Asian cooking rarely attempts to deepen flavor, and instead the emphasis is on adding and balancing a multitude of flavors. Strong flavored seasoning is often complex and just as important as the 'main' ingredients of the meal.

Of course, there are always exceptions but this is generally how I see it.
