Dude’s Night, Cooking 101 for Hackers
- kyochan 17y agoWine tasting? In keeping with the Dude theme, I would suggest Belgian beer tasting instead. There are trappists, lambic, framboise, witbier, or my favorite, all of the above.
- davidw 17y agoWine is for dudes and everyone else here in "Southern Europe".

- sanj 17y agoIt is unfortunate that the knife skills photos show poor (an potentially dangerous) grips. The shots of breaking down the onion are much better technique.

- evansolomon 17y agoPretty sure that's Rajiv from Dropbox. I can confirm all 10 fingers made it through the onion cutting. Fwiw, he wasn't actually cutting through the onion there, just a centimeter or so into it. Probably not the best technique, but minimal chance of blood.
- vlad 17y agoThat's Hua. Rajiv was wearing green.

- wallflower 17y ago"The Professional Chef's Knife Kit" by Culinary Institute of America teaches almost every knife skill. I learned from the step-by-step photos. http://www.amazon.com/Professional-Chefs-Knife-Kit/dp/0471349976 http://www.amazon.com/Professional-Chefs-Knife-Kit/dp/047134...
- jsomers 17y agoThe crab cakes look good.
- Locke1689 17y agoYou have to be careful about crab cakes. There are very few places in the United States where the crab is actually "fresh." Most of the blue crab in the US (which is usually in crab cakes, but not always) is caught in or near the Chesapeake Bay. As a native Marylander, my advice to most people is to usually stay away from the crab unless you're in the MD/VA area as it's probably not fresh. That said, if you've never been to a proper MD crab feast, you may not tell the difference. ;)
- crazyazn 17y agoAgreed, nothing like eating fresh crab! If they aren't in season, I like to go with Costco's big tub of Chicken of the Sea Crab. It's around $20 and you can make about 8-10 crab cakes. Pretty good and saves you time washing your hands in lemon juice.
- arram 17y agoSorry I missed it. You need to do this again Hua!

- mynameishere 17y agoI once tried to break a thick frozen pizza into two parts with a hammer. So, cooking stills aren't a priority.
- wingo 17y agoNot all hackers are dudes.
