Some of these recipes seem decent if you're already somewhat experienced and have developed cook's intuition. Otherwise they're way too vague. For instance, the chicken parm recipe: - There should be a photo of how to slice the chicken breast. Saying "through their width" isn't good enough. I had to explain what "lengthwise" was once because my friend cut all the vegetables the exact opposite of it. - Pound with what…
The use of the word “based” is almost always a white nationalist whistle or flag. Like flashing the “OK” sign so others know you’re a racist.
The first time I saw the word based was the first significant violent attack on a BLM protestor by white supremacist Kyle Chapman in 2017. The Proud Boys klan gave him the honorary title of “Based Stickman”.
The author of this cooking site most likely has white power affiliation.

> Only Based cooking. Can someone shed light on what "based cooking" is? It's rather tricky to Google for and am unable to figure out what the site's author means by that.

> Being "redpilled" means you've come to accept some reality that differs from the mainstream interpretation, but is the factual and correct one. This can range from more serious issues ("there are only two genders") to more shitposty/comedic ones ("The Room is a cinematic masterpiece"). Whereas "bluepilled" is the opposite--you failed to understand the true reality of things and are stuck believing a false idea.
> Redpill and Bluepill are just another way of saying "My personal opinion is objective fact and what you think is objectively wrong"
It still seems like an odd adjective ('objectively correct') for cooking though, to me.
Nice idea but I'm confused by "based". What's that?

On this subject, can an American please tell me what a spoonful is? There is a great video series on youtube, with his recipes online, but all measurements are spoonful: https://www.ethanchlebowski.com/cooking-techniques-recipes/p... Spoons can vary in size, so is it a tablespoon or a teaspoon? When dealing with spices you'll be adding 3 times the amount if you go with tablespoon interpretation so it'd be a pretty bi…
Like step 5 says, taste it and adjust. The foods already cooked by the time your adding the spices

As European who sometimes cooks recipes from US sites. I have a dedicated set of cup and spoon measures (1) and the sizes in the spoon measures read * tablespoon 15ml * teaspoon 5ml * 1/2 teaspoon 2.5ml * 1/4 teaspoon 1ml (1) not exactly this set, but a similar one https://www.amazon.de/-/en/HAUSPROFI-Stainless-steel-measuri...
The issue is what a "spoonful" constitutes. Check the link to the recipe.

Also if we aren't talking about measuring spoons is it heapful or flat? Also 30 cranks of black pepper? Are the pepper mills standardised? What is a crank full 360 degrees or less? Or some back and forth motion, but again how large motion? How does this even work with my electric grinder?

I learned to cook a lot from the 3x5 cards my mom has in a cupboard. They list stuff like a "pinch" of salt or a "stick" of butter. Sometimes I'll make her dinner from her recipe and she'll be surprised and say "that's not the way I do it" and then she'll really enjoy the food anyway. I think interpretation is what makes cooking an art, and many times, those little individual choices we make to interpret a recipe or…
I guess the Proud Boys deserve cookbooks too? The use of the word “based” is almost always a white nationalist whistle or flag. Like flashing the “OK” sign so others know you’re a racist.

What if you moved to the west coast from the eastern coast (of USA) where a stick of butter meant something different? This is a time interpretation could be a horrible difference. https://www.tasteofhome.com/article/east-coast-vs-west-coast...
