"Kylie Jenner Ramen 'Recipe'": 30 Stupid Food Trends Started On Social Media, According To Folks Online Most of the responses here are just bad taste, but bad taste isn't criminally negligent.

The crimes are coming from some of that viral tiktok s**t. People are deep frying with a pot 90% full of oil, dropping thing into the oil towards themselves, and pulling it out dangerously under cooked. I saw a woman the other day say "if you like rare steak, you'll like rare sausage."

Some of those videos, man, if you follow them to the letter you're going to get 2nd degree burns and salmonella poisoning. But these f*****s present themselves as some kind of experts. They are, in a legal sense, actually criminally negligent.

How often I see extra virgin olive oil used to fry or sauté items. It surprises me how many otherwise (seemingly) well-seasoned home/internet “chefs” pour really high-quality, visibly green EVOO in a med-high skillet and start cooking meat or veg in it. What a waste, and it usually ends up burning the oil obviously.

Edit: To be clear, I’m not saying regular or light olive oil are a problem for high temperature cooking. But **extra virgin** has more particulate left from the olives and has a much lower smoke point than more filtered versions. Personally I use light olive oil or avocado oil for high temp cooking.

All my recipes are in a spreadsheet and the columns are the aisle at the grocery store, the rows are my recipes with the list of ingredients in each aisle. I chose the menu for the next 15 days and copy/paste those lines and print to bring to the grocery store. That list becomes my menu for the next two weeks. There's a code on the recipe name that tells me where the recipe is. I always do a mise en place before I start cooking anything. When the food is cooking, I start cleaning up the kitchen. The recipe is scratched from my list and I'm ready for another day (or the day after if it gives me food for 2 days).

For me it’s the addition of sugar, or sugary ingredients, to savoury dishes. No, you don’t need to ‘balance flavours’ by adding all 4 (or 5) to everything. Some dishes are supposed to lean towards acid, or bitter. And many foods have plenty of natural sweetness in them already.

"Kylie Jenner Ramen 'Recipe'": 30 Stupid Food Trends Started On Social Media, According To Folks Online All of it. This thread has summarised it well.

Those ten second recipe shorts with 3000 cuts at light speed are my personal bugbear. I've no idea how they're of any benefit to anyone.

The biggest issue is that people see the cooking genre as a means of advertising themselves or their 'brand'. They try to create entertainment rather than useful tutorials. We've got lives, messy kitchens, a shortage of time and space and we're stressed out. The last thing I need is Sam 'the cooking guy' waffling on and on for fifteen minutes about nothing in particular whilst I look for the (blink and you'll miss it) recipe step.

Also this modern trend of combining sweets/pastries whatever and acting like you've created a new dish. Cronuts, cruffins, brookies. Give me a break.
