[WOJ] Rockets getting Steven Adams in trade

Food culture is largely dependent on what’s available. Mexico and Japan make the most it IMO. The Mediterranean has the greatest riches of food resources and they know how to use them. France basically codified sauces… The US has just stood on the shoulders of giants (with a huge Central European nudge).

 

Big difference between refried beans and pork n beans.
UK food is not good in general

 

Okay, bud, I yield to your expertise.

 

I want mine to try and get up and run off the plate rare.


I'll take a bite out of the cow.

 

I prefer a good medium (not medium well, medium) steak, assuming we're talking typical ribeye/new york strip. More of the fat gets rendered if you bring it to medium.

Medium well is tolerable but not ideal. Anything more than that ruins the steak

 

Don’t get mad because the UK can’t compete with American food.
When black pudding and fish and chips are a staple, that’s a problem.
Anyone acting like top tier steak is “mid” doesn’t know food

 

All the great bearnaise sauce and chimichurri are lost on these steak experts. I used to get steak well-done or nothing when I was young, but eventually moved on to medium-rare. I like it with or without sauce. I've done it with A1 which is too damn overpowering if you overuse it. I prefer it with chimichurri or just "plain" with salt, pepper, thyme or rosemary and butter with a loooot of garlic. Sous vide and pan-seared because I don't own a grill. I've almost cut beef out of my diet as of late, but that's one thing I sorta miss (and brisket).

ETA : Steven Adams is a good man.

 

FYI : that's not blood - it's myoglobin. lol. If your steak is still bleeding, walk it to the back and have them kill it completely before offering it to you.

 

WTF is happening here? I just came for the Steven Adams talk and instead I've somehow stumbled into the reddit for master chef.

 

Chimichurri is the bomb.

 

Not here dude. I love a good chimi, horseradish, mushroom/wine, au poive, sauce. I don't *need* sauce on every bite of a steak or even every steak, but sometimes I'm in the mood.

A proper mex/tex-mex breakfast of carne guisada or chorizo and eggs + beans and potatoes is one of the greatest breakfasts.

Until training camp starts and there's actually something new to talk about, all GARM threads should be food talk.

 

All that matters here is how would Steven Adams want his steak cooked.

 

Did you miss where y'all pay people like Gordon Ramsay (13 Michelin stars at one point - lol at you thinking British food isn't among the best in the world like we're still in the 1970's) millions to teach your restaurants how to cook food? There are no American chefs doing the same out here. And I wasn't downtalking US food, I adore American cuisine (my Dad's from Texas) it's just a fact that in the British restaurant market "American diners" (and that doesn't necessarily mean anything authentic) and "Steakhouses" are not considered fine dining. That's it. No need to get offended.

edit: Just to add because I was intrigued.

Michelin starred restaurants in the UK: 206 between 1, 2 and 3 stars. Population 66.97m (2022)
Michelin starred restaurants in the USA: 235 between 1, 2 and 3 stars. Population 333.3m (2022)
So significantly more "good chefs" per capita in the UK, and it's not close. You should proportionally have over 3 times the number, you don't, at all. Have a clue about stuff that goes on outside of your borders, don't be one of the cliches.

 

Would you rather see this turn into "Steven Adams will be the Rockets' Numero Uno"?

 

Came here to hear about the Bear.

 

In that image it looked ..... burnt.

 

UK food on the whole is trash. No one said they didn’t have some fine dining, but it’s not UK cuisine.
Typical foreigner thinking Americans haven’t traveled and experienced outside their borders.
Your food is trash over there lol

 

Preparation H on the whole is good.
